Is Bank of New York Mellon stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Bank of New York Mellon's P/E ratio

Bank of New York Mellon's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 18x. In other words, Bank of New York Mellon shares trade at around 18x 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 stock or simply that they're under-valued.

Bank of New York Mellon's PEG ratio

Bank of New York Mellon's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.733. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the stocks offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the stocks offer worse value.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Bank of New York Mellon's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Bank of New York Mellon stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 31.79% of net profits

Recently Bank of New York Mellon has paid out, on average, around 0% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Bank of New York Mellon shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Bank of New York Mellon's case, that would currently equate to about $1.73 per share.

While Bank of New York Mellon's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Bank of New York Mellon may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Bank of New York Mellon's most recent dividend payout was on 31 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 20 October 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Bank of New York Mellon's stocks ever split?

Bank of New York Mellon's stocks were split on a 9434:10000 basis on 1 July 2007 . So if you had owned 10000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 9434 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Bank of New York Mellon stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 6% higher stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Bank of New York Mellon stocks, which in turn could have impacted Bank of New York Mellon's stock price.

Bank of New York Mellon stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Bank of New York Mellon's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $46.974 up to $82.72. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."
