Is National Instruments Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing National Instruments Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of National Instruments Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
National Instruments Corporation's P/E ratio
National Instruments Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 44x. In other words, National Instruments Corporation shares trade at around 44x 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 shares or simply that they're over-valued.
National Instruments Corporation's PEG ratio
National Instruments Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.7358. 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 National Instruments Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

National Instruments Corporation share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 47.73% of net profits
Recently National Instruments Corporation has paid out, on average, around 47.73% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.87% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), National Instruments Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 1.87% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In National Instruments Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.12 per share.
While National Instruments Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that National Instruments Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
National Instruments Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 28 August 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 6 August 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have National Instruments Corporation's shares ever split?
National Instruments Corporation's shares were
split on a 3:2 basis on 22 February 2011
. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your National Instruments Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for National Instruments Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted National Instruments Corporation's share price.
National Instruments Corporation share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, National Instruments Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0 up to $0. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while National Instruments Corporation's is 1.1804. This would suggest that National Instruments Corporation'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).
