Is SP Plus stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

SP Plus share dividends

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

Have SP Plus's shares ever split?

SP Plus's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 18 January 2008. 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 SP Plus shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for SP Plus shares which in turn could have impacted SP Plus's share price.

SP Plus share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, SP Plus's shares have ranged in value from as little as $28.185 up to $39.6. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

SP.US volatility(beta: 1.36)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 SP Plus's is 1.3589. This would suggest that SP Plus's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
