Is Tiptree under- or over-valued?

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

Tiptree's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 12x. In other words, Tiptree shares trade at around 12x 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.

Tiptree's EBITDA

Tiptree's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $16.1 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Tiptree's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Shorting Tiptree shares

There are currently 396,162 Tiptree shares held short by investors – that's known as Tiptree's "short interest". This figure is 18.5% up from 334,316 last month.

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

Tiptree's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Tiptree's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Tiptree shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Tiptree shares traded daily (recently around 170026.60944206). Tiptree's SIR currently stands at 2.33. In other words for every 100,000 Tiptree shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2330 shares are currently held short.

However Tiptree's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Tiptree shares, or, against the total number of tradable Tiptree shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Tiptree's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Tiptree shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0166% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Tiptree shares, roughly 17 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 Tiptree.

Tiptree share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 12.17% of net profits

Recently Tiptree has paid out, on average, around 12.17% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.29% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Tiptree shareholders could enjoy a 1.29% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Tiptree's case, that would currently equate to about $0.16 per share.

While Tiptree's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Tiptree is investing more in its future growth.

Tiptree's most recent dividend payout was on 28 March 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 18 March 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Tiptree's shares ever split?

Tiptree's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 13 September 2010. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Tiptree shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Tiptree shares which in turn could have impacted Tiptree's share price.

Tiptree share price volatility
