Valuing Univest Corporation Pennsylvania stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, Univest Corporation Pennsylvania shares trade at around 9x 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.
Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.47. 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 Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 31.58% of net profits
Recently Univest Corporation Pennsylvania has paid out, on average, around 31.58% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.42% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Univest Corporation Pennsylvania shareholders could enjoy a 3.42% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's case, that would currently equate to about $0.84 per share.
While Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Univest Corporation Pennsylvania may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's most recent dividend payout was on 21 February 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 6 February 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 1 May 2005. 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 Univest Corporation Pennsylvania shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Univest Corporation Pennsylvania shares which in turn could have impacted Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's shares have ranged in value from as little as $23.133 up to $29.05. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's is 0.9291. This would suggest that Univest Corporation Pennsylvania's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
