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

Dividend payout ratio: 34.95% of net profits
Recently Piper Sandler Companies has paid out, on average, around 34.95% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.93% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Piper Sandler Companies shareholders could enjoy a 0.93% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Piper Sandler Companies's case, that would currently equate to about $2.4 per share.
While Piper Sandler Companies's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Piper Sandler Companies may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Piper Sandler Companies's most recent dividend payout was on 6 June 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 22 May 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Piper Sandler Companies's shares have ranged in value from as little as $128.9128 up to $263.19. 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 Piper Sandler Companies's is 1.401. This would suggest that Piper Sandler Companies's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
