Valuing Suncor Energy stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Suncor Energy's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Suncor Energy's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 6x. In other words, Suncor Energy shares trade at around 6x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Suncor Energy's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.07. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Suncor Energy's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Suncor Energy's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $19.3 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Suncor Energy's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Total ESG risk: 29.42
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Suncor Energy's overall score of 29.42 (as at 12/31/2018) is nothing to write home about – landing it in it in the 58th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Suncor Energy is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).

Dividend payout ratio: 22.55% of net profits
Recently Suncor Energy has paid out, on average, around 22.55% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.64% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Suncor Energy shareholders could enjoy a 4.64% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Suncor Energy's case, that would currently equate to about $1.52 per share.
While Suncor Energy's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Suncor Energy is investing more in its future growth.
Suncor Energy's most recent dividend payout was on 25 September 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 31 August 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Suncor Energy's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 26 May 2008. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Suncor Energy shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Suncor Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Suncor Energy's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Suncor Energy's shares have ranged in value from as little as $17.8213 up to $42.2429. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Suncor Energy's is 1.7449. This would suggest that Suncor Energy's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
