Is Matson stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Matson stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Matson's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Matson's P/E ratio
Matson's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, Matson shares trade at around 9x 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.
Matson's PEG ratio
Matson's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 3.31. 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 Matson's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Matson's EBITDA
Matson's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $713.9 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Matson's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Matson share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 9.54% of net profits
Recently Matson 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), Matson shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Matson's case, that would currently equate to about $1.32 per share.
While Matson's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Matson is investing more in its future growth.
Matson's most recent dividend payout was on 5 March 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 5 February 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Matson's shares ever split?
Matson's shares were
split on a 10000:4795 basis on 1 July 2012
. So if you had owned 4795 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 10000 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Matson shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 52.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Matson shares which in turn could have impacted Matson's share price.
Matson share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Matson's shares have ranged in value from as little as $99.5018 up to $168.6967. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Matson's is 1.049. This would suggest that Matson's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
