Is Coinbase stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Coinbase's P/E ratio

Coinbase's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 19x. In other words, Coinbase shares trade at around 19x 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.

Coinbase's PEG ratio

Coinbase's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.2563. 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 Coinbase's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Coinbase's EBITDA

Coinbase's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $2.2 billion.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Coinbase's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Coinbase stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Coinbase's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $146.12 up to $349.75. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."

Beta is a measure of a stocks volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Coinbase's is 3.664. This would suggest that Coinbase's stocks are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
