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.
Western Midstream Partners's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 5.48. 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 Western Midstream Partners's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Recently Western Midstream Partners has paid out, on average, around 57.5% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 8.27% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Western Midstream Partners shareholders could enjoy a 8.27% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Western Midstream Partners's case, that would currently equate to about $1.469 per share.
Western Midstream Partners's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

Western Midstream Partners's shares were split on a 10:9 basis on 25 November 2014. So if you had owned 9 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 10 shares.

However, indirectly, the new 10% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Western Midstream Partners shares which in turn could have impacted Western Midstream Partners's share price.
