Is TETRA Technologies under- or over-valued?

Valuing TETRA Technologies stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of TETRA Technologies's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

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.

TETRA Technologies's PEG ratio

TETRA Technologies's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.2. 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 TETRA Technologies's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting TETRA Technologies shares

There are currently 5.1 million TETRA Technologies shares held short by investors – that's known as TETRA Technologies's "short interest". This figure is 214.1% up from 1.6 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting TETRA Technologies shares can be evaluated.

TETRA Technologies's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

TETRA Technologies's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of TETRA Technologies shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of TETRA Technologies shares traded daily (recently around 2.6 million). TETRA Technologies's SIR currently stands at 1.94. In other words for every 100,000 TETRA Technologies shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1940 shares are currently held short.

However TETRA Technologies's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of TETRA Technologies shares, or, against the total number of tradable TETRA Technologies shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case TETRA Technologies's short interest could be expressed as 0.04% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 TETRA Technologies shares in existence, roughly 40 shares are currently held short) or 0.0454% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable TETRA Technologies shares, roughly 45 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 TETRA Technologies.
