Is Acadia Healthcare Company stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Acadia Healthcare Company's P/E ratio

Acadia Healthcare Company's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 13x. In other words, Acadia Healthcare Company shares trade at around 13x 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 shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Acadia Healthcare Company's PEG ratio

Acadia Healthcare Company's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.32. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.

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

Acadia Healthcare Company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $689.3 million.

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

Have Acadia Healthcare Company's shares ever split?

Acadia Healthcare Company's shares were split on a 1:4 basis on 31 October 2011 . So if you had owned 4 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Acadia Healthcare Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 300% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Acadia Healthcare Company shares which in turn could have impacted Acadia Healthcare Company's share price.

Acadia Healthcare Company share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Acadia Healthcare Company's shares have ranged in value from as little as $36.5 up to $87.77. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

ACHC.US volatility(beta: 1.33)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh
