Is The Toronto-Dominion Bank under- or over-valued?
Valuing The Toronto-Dominion Bank stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of The Toronto-Dominion Bank's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's P/E ratio
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares trade at around 10x 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.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's PEG ratio
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.21. 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 The Toronto-Dominion Bank's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares
There are currently 7.2 million The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares held short by investors – that's known as The Toronto-Dominion Bank's "short interest". This figure is 23.2% down from 9.4 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares can be evaluated.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares traded daily (recently around 1.4 million). The Toronto-Dominion Bank's SIR currently stands at 5.22. In other words for every 100,000 The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5220 shares are currently held short.
However The Toronto-Dominion Bank's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares, or, against the total number of tradable The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case The Toronto-Dominion Bank's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.004% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares, roughly 4 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 The Toronto-Dominion Bank.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank'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 The Toronto-Dominion Bank.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's total ESG risk score
Total ESG risk: 19.68
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and The Toronto-Dominion Bank's overall score of 19.68 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty good – landing it in it in the 27th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like The Toronto-Dominion Bank 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.).
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's environmental score
Environmental score: 0.33/100
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's environmental score of 0.33 puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that The Toronto-Dominion Bank is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's social score
Social score: 10.19/100
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's social score of 10.19 puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that The Toronto-Dominion Bank is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's governance score
Governance score: 8.33/100
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's governance score puts it squarely in the 2nd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that The Toronto-Dominion Bank is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's controversy score
Controversy score: 3/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. The Toronto-Dominion Bank scored a 3 out of 5 for controversy – a middle-of-the-table result reflecting that The Toronto-Dominion Bank hasn't always managed to keep its nose clean.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 42.31% of net profits
Recently The Toronto-Dominion Bank has paid out, on average, around 42.31% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.6% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), The Toronto-Dominion Bank shareholders could enjoy a 3.6% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In The Toronto-Dominion Bank's case, that would currently equate to about $3.16 per share.
While The Toronto-Dominion Bank's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that The Toronto-Dominion Bank may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's most recent dividend payout was on 31 October 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 7 October 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have The Toronto-Dominion Bank's shares ever split?
The Toronto-Dominion Bank's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 3 February 2014. 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 The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for The Toronto-Dominion Bank shares which in turn could have impacted The Toronto-Dominion Bank's share price.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, The Toronto-Dominion Bank's shares have ranged in value from as little as $41.2776 up to $72.503. 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 The Toronto-Dominion Bank's is 0.8594. This would suggest that The Toronto-Dominion Bank's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
