Valuing Switch stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Switch's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Switch's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 148x. In other words, Switch shares trade at around 148x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Switch's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $267.2 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Switch's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 107.89% of net profits
Recently Switch has paid out, on average, around 107.89% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.81% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Switch shareholders could enjoy a 0.81% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Switch's case, that would currently equate to about $0.203 per share.
Switch's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
Switch's most recent dividend payout was on 30 November 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 November 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Switch's shares have ranged in value from as little as $13.2456 up to $29.15. 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 Switch's is 0.6766. This would suggest that Switch's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
