Amazon stock performance metrics

Here are some common key metrics for Amazon stock that analysts often use to help gauge a stock's value—P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

• Amazon's P/E ratio

  Amazon's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over the past 12 months gives a trailing price/earnings (P/E) ratio of roughly 28x. In other words, Amazon shares trade at around 28 times recent earnings.

  That's comparable to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29).

• Amazon's PEG ratio

  Amazon's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 1.8173. A lower ratio can suggest a stock offers better value, while a higher ratio may suggest worse value.

  The PEG ratio provides a broader view than the P/E ratio alone, as it factors in Amazon's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Amazon's EBITDA

  Amazon's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $145.7 billion. EBITDA is a measure of a company's overall financial performance and is often used as a proxy for a company's profitability.

Has Amazon stock ever split?

Amazon's stocks were split on a 20:1 basis on June 5, 2022. So, if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 20 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Amazon stocks, just the quantity.

However, indirectly, the new 95% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Amazon stocks, which in turn could have impacted Amazon's stock price.

How volatile is Amazon stock?

Over the last 12 months, Amazon's stocks price has ranged from $161.38 to as high as $258.60. Amazon's beta measurement of stock volatility is 1.39. For comparison, the market () average beta is 1. This would suggest that Amazon's stocks are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

Some analysists use "beta" to gauge a stock's volatility. Beta is a popular way to measure a stocks volatility in relation to the market. Here is a breakdown of Amazon's beta stock volatility rating.
