Is ResMed stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

ResMed's P/E ratio

ResMed's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, ResMed shares trade at around 35x 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.

ResMed's PEG ratio

ResMed's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.009. 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 ResMed's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

ResMed's EBITDA

ResMed's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1.5 billion.

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

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.

ResMed's total ESG risk score

Total ESG risk: 29.05

Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and ResMed's overall score of 29.05 (as at 12/31/2018) is nothing to write home about – landing it in it in the 50th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like ResMed is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).

ResMed's environmental score

Environmental score: 7.42/100

ResMed's environmental score of 7.42 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that ResMed is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

ResMed's social score

Social score: 14/100

ResMed's social score of 14 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that ResMed is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

ResMed's governance score

ResMed share dividends

25%

Dividend payout ratio: 25.49% of net profits

Recently ResMed 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), ResMed shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In ResMed's case, that would currently equate to about $1.92 per share.

While ResMed's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that ResMed may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

ResMed's most recent dividend payout was on 18 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 14 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have ResMed's shares ever split?

ResMed's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 30 August 2010 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your ResMed shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for ResMed shares which in turn could have impacted ResMed's share price.

ResMed share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, ResMed's shares have ranged in value from as little as $130.881 up to $255.1794. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

RMD.US volatility(beta: 0.69)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while ResMed's is 0.689. This would suggest that ResMed's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
