Valuing Vishay Precision Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Vishay Precision Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Vishay Precision Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 40x. In other words, Vishay Precision Group shares trade at around 40x 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.
Vishay Precision Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.63. 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 Vishay Precision Group's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Vishay Precision Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $39.2 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Vishay Precision Group's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

There are currently 228,427 Vishay Precision Group shares held short by investors – that's known as Vishay Precision Group's "short interest". This figure is 2.3% down from 233,778 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Vishay Precision Group shares can be evaluated.
Vishay Precision Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Vishay Precision Group shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Vishay Precision Group shares traded daily (recently around 67581.952662722). Vishay Precision Group's SIR currently stands at 3.38. In other words for every 100,000 Vishay Precision Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3380 shares are currently held short.
However Vishay Precision Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Vishay Precision Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable Vishay Precision Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Vishay Precision Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Vishay Precision Group shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0199% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Vishay Precision Group shares, roughly 20 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 Vishay Precision Group.
