Is Provident Financial Services stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Provident Financial Services stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Provident Financial Services's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Provident Financial Services's P/E ratio
Provident Financial Services's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Provident Financial Services shares trade at around 10x 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.
Provident Financial Services's PEG ratio
Provident Financial Services's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.6065. 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 Provident Financial Services's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Provident Financial Services share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 40.85% of net profits
Recently Provident Financial Services has paid out, on average, around 40.85% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.26% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Provident Financial Services shareholders could enjoy a 4.26% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Provident Financial Services's case, that would currently equate to about $0.96 per share.
While Provident Financial Services's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Provident Financial Services may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Provident Financial Services's most recent dividend payout was on 28 May 2026. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 14 May 2026 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Provident Financial Services's shares have ranged in value from as little as $15.3584 up to $23.7285. 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 Provident Financial Services's is 0.795. This would suggest that Provident Financial Services's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
