Is Pfizer stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Pfizer's P/E ratio

Pfizer's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 17x. In other words, Pfizer shares trade at around 17x 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.

Pfizer's PEG ratio

Pfizer's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.6058. 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 Pfizer's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Pfizer's EBITDA

Pfizer's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $23.3 billion.

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

Pfizer stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 52.96% of net profits

Recently Pfizer has paid out, on average, around 100% 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), Pfizer shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Pfizer's case, that would currently equate to about $1.69 per share.

Pfizer's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

Pfizer's most recent dividend payout was on 12 June 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 8 May 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Pfizer's stocks ever split?

Pfizer's stocks were split on a 1054:1000 basis on 16 November 2020 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1054 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Pfizer stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 5.1% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Pfizer stocks, which in turn could have impacted Pfizer's stock price.

Pfizer stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Pfizer's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $20.5284 up to $29.9806. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Pfizer's is 0.491. This would suggest that Pfizer's stocks are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
