Is Salesforce stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Salesforce's P/E ratio

Salesforce's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 57x. In other words, Salesforce shares trade at around 57x 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.

Salesforce's PEG ratio

Salesforce's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.3655. 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 Salesforce's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Salesforce's EBITDA

Salesforce's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $9.3 billion.

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

Salesforce's environmental, social and governance track record

Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Salesforce.

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.

Salesforce's total ESG risk score

Total ESG risk: 13.24

Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Salesforce's overall score of 13.24 (as at 12/31/2018) is excellent – landing it in it in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Salesforce is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).

Salesforce's environmental score

Environmental score: 0.97/100

Salesforce's environmental score of 0.97 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

Salesforce's social score

Social score: 5.99/100

Salesforce's social score of 5.99 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

Salesforce's governance score

Governance score: 4.28/100

Salesforce's governance score puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

Salesforce's controversy score

Controversy score: 2/5

ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Salesforce scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that Salesforce has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.

Salesforce stock dividends

13%

Dividend payout ratio: 12.77% of net profits

Recently Salesforce 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), Salesforce shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Salesforce's case, that would currently equate to about $0.8 per share.

While Salesforce's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Salesforce is investing more in its future growth.

Salesforce's most recent dividend payout was on 7 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 17 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Salesforce's stocks ever split?

Salesforce's stocks were split on a 4:1 basis on 17 April 2013 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Salesforce stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Salesforce stocks, which in turn could have impacted Salesforce's stock price.

Salesforce stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Salesforce's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $211.3387 up to $348.86. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."

CRM.US volatility(beta: 1.29)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a stocks volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Salesforce's is 1.288. This would suggest that Salesforce's stocks are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
