Is DICKS Sporting Goods under- or over-valued?
Valuing DICKS Sporting Goods stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of DICKS Sporting Goods's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

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.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like DICKS Sporting Goods 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.).
DICKS Sporting Goods's environmental score
Environmental score: 3.78/100
DICKS Sporting Goods's environmental score of 3.78 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that DICKS Sporting Goods is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

DICKS Sporting Goods share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 47.85% of net profits
Recently DICKS Sporting Goods has paid out, on average, around 47.85% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.17% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), DICKS Sporting Goods shareholders could enjoy a 2.17% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In DICKS Sporting Goods's case, that would currently equate to about $1.6 per share.
While DICKS Sporting Goods's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that DICKS Sporting Goods may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
DICKS Sporting Goods's most recent dividend payout was on 25 March 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 March 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have DICKS Sporting Goods's shares ever split?
DICKS Sporting Goods's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 22 October 2007. 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 DICKS Sporting Goods shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for DICKS Sporting Goods shares which in turn could have impacted DICKS Sporting Goods's share price.
DICKS Sporting Goods share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, DICKS Sporting Goods's shares have ranged in value from as little as $78.4637 up to $141.5895. 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 DICKS Sporting Goods's is 1.7074. This would suggest that DICKS Sporting Goods's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
