Valuing W-and-T Offshore stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of W-and-T Offshore's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
W-and-T Offshore's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 5x. In other words, W-and-T Offshore shares trade at around 5x 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.
W-and-T Offshore's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$172.7 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a W-and-T Offshore's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

There are currently 19.0 million W-and-T Offshore shares held short by investors – that's known as W-and-T Offshore's "short interest". This figure is 4.5% up from 18.2 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting W-and-T Offshore shares can be evaluated.
W-and-T Offshore's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of W-and-T Offshore shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of W-and-T Offshore shares traded daily (recently around 3.0 million). W-and-T Offshore's SIR currently stands at 6.31. In other words for every 100,000 W-and-T Offshore shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6310 shares are currently held short.
However W-and-T Offshore's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of W-and-T Offshore shares, or, against the total number of tradable W-and-T Offshore shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case W-and-T Offshore's short interest could be expressed as 0.13% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 W-and-T Offshore shares in existence, roughly 130 shares are currently held short) or 0.2033% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable W-and-T Offshore shares, roughly 203 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against W-and-T Offshore.

We're not expecting W-and-T Offshore to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
W-and-T Offshore's shares were split on a 500:1 basis on 29 January 2004. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 500 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your W-and-T Offshore shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 99.8% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for W-and-T Offshore shares which in turn could have impacted W-and-T Offshore's share price.
Over the last 12 months, W-and-T Offshore's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.07 up to $5.98. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while W-and-T Offshore's is 3.3393. This would suggest that W-and-T Offshore's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
