Is Consolidated Edison under- or over-valued?
Valuing Consolidated Edison stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Consolidated Edison's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Consolidated Edison's P/E ratio
Consolidated Edison's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 24x. In other words, Consolidated Edison shares trade at around 24x 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.
Consolidated Edison's PEG ratio
Consolidated Edison's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 5.1103. 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 Consolidated Edison's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Consolidated Edison's EBITDA
Consolidated Edison's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $4.7 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Consolidated Edison's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Consolidated Edison's environmental, social and governance track record
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Consolidated Edison.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Consolidated Edison's total ESG risk score
Total ESG risk: 30.49
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Consolidated Edison's overall score of 30.49 (as at 01/01/2019) is nothing to write home about – landing it in it in the 52nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Consolidated Edison is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Consolidated Edison's environmental score
Environmental score: 11.17/100
Consolidated Edison's environmental score of 11.17 puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Consolidated Edison is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Consolidated Edison's social score
Social score: 20.03/100
Consolidated Edison's social score of 20.03 puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Consolidated Edison is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Consolidated Edison's governance score
Governance score: 10.29/100
Consolidated Edison's governance score puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Consolidated Edison is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Consolidated Edison's controversy score
Controversy score: 3/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Consolidated Edison scored a 3 out of 5 for controversy – a middle-of-the-table result reflecting that Consolidated Edison hasn't always managed to keep its nose clean.
Consolidated Edison share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 70.98% of net profits
Recently Consolidated Edison has paid out, on average, around 70.98% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.41% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Consolidated Edison shareholders could enjoy a 3.41% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Consolidated Edison's case, that would currently equate to about $3.1 per share.
Consolidated Edison'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.
Consolidated Edison's most recent dividend payout was on 15 June 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 May 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Consolidated Edison's shares ever split?
Consolidated Edison's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 3 July 1989. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Consolidated Edison shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Consolidated Edison shares which in turn could have impacted Consolidated Edison's share price.
Consolidated Edison share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Consolidated Edison's shares have ranged in value from as little as $69.1079 up to $99.22. 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 Consolidated Edison's is 0.2211. This would suggest that Consolidated Edison's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
