Is DexCom stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

DexCom'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 DexCom.

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.

DexCom's total ESG risk score

Total ESG risk: 29.18

Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and DexCom's overall score of 29.18 (as at 01/01/2019) is nothing to write home about – landing it in it in the 50th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like DexCom 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.).

DexCom's environmental score

Environmental score: 10.43/100

DexCom's environmental score of 10.43 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that DexCom is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

DexCom's social score

Social score: 17.04/100

DexCom's social score of 17.04 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that DexCom is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

DexCom's governance score

Governance score: 13.2/100

DexCom's governance score puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that DexCom is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

DexCom's controversy score

Controversy score: 2/5

ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. DexCom scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that DexCom has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.

DexCom share dividends

We're not expecting DexCom to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have DexCom's shares ever split?

DexCom's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 13 June 2022. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your DexCom shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for DexCom shares which in turn could have impacted DexCom's share price.

DexCom share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, DexCom's shares have ranged in value from as little as $67.11 up to $126.44. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

DXCM.US volatility(beta: 1.15)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while DexCom's is 1.1531. This would suggest that DexCom's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
