Is Netflix stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Netflix's P/E ratio

Netflix's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 51x. In other words, Netflix shares trade at around 51x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the stock or simply that they're over-valued.

Netflix's PEG ratio

Netflix's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.8385. 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 Netflix's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Netflix's EBITDA

Netflix's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $10 billion.

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

Operating margin TTM 29.61%

Netflix stock dividends

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

Have Netflix's stocks ever split?

Netflix's stocks were split on a 7:1 basis on 14 July 2015 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 7 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Netflix stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 85.7% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Netflix stocks, which in turn could have impacted Netflix's stock price.

Netflix stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Netflix's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $450.76 up to $915.9699. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."

NFLX.US volatility(beta: 1.25)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a stocks volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Netflix's is 1.25. This would suggest that Netflix's stocks are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
