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

Werner Enterprises's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Werner Enterprises shares trade at around 10x 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.
Werner Enterprises's PEG ratio
Werner Enterprises's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.07. 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 Werner Enterprises's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Werner Enterprises share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 13.1% of net profits
Recently Werner Enterprises has paid out, on average, around 13.1% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.34% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Werner Enterprises shareholders could enjoy a 1.34% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Werner Enterprises's case, that would currently equate to about $0.48 per share.
While Werner Enterprises's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Werner Enterprises is investing more in its future growth.
Werner Enterprises's most recent dividend payout was on 18 July 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 June 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Werner Enterprises's shares ever split?
Werner Enterprises's shares were split on a 5:4 basis on 30 September 2003. So if you had owned 4 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Werner Enterprises shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 20% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Werner Enterprises shares which in turn could have impacted Werner Enterprises's share price.
Werner Enterprises share price volatility
