Valuing Takeda Pharmaceutical Company stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 22x. In other words, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares trade at around 22x 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.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.122. 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 Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 7.6 million Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares held short by investors – that's known as Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's "short interest". This figure is 15.5% up from 6.6 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares can be evaluated.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares traded daily (recently around 1.9 million). Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's SIR currently stands at 4.07. In other words for every 100,000 Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares traded daily on the market, roughly 4070 shares are currently held short.
However Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares, or, against the total number of tradable Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shares, roughly 0 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Takeda Pharmaceutical Company.

Dividend payout ratio: 17.34% of net profits
Recently Takeda Pharmaceutical Company has paid out, on average, around 17.34% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.69% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Takeda Pharmaceutical Company shareholders could enjoy a 4.69% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's case, that would currently equate to about $0.85 per share.
While Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Takeda Pharmaceutical Company is investing more in its future growth.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's most recent dividend payout was on 15 December 2009. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 29 September 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's shares have ranged in value from as little as $12.43 up to $20.42. 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 Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's is 1.0914. This would suggest that Takeda Pharmaceutical Company's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
