Is Strategic Education stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Strategic Education stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Strategic Education's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Strategic Education's P/E ratio
Strategic Education's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 16x. In other words, Strategic Education shares trade at around 16x 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.
Strategic Education's PEG ratio
Strategic Education's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.8064. 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 Strategic Education's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Strategic Education's EBITDA
Strategic Education's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $228.3 million.

Strategic Education share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 41.81% of net profits
Recently Strategic Education 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), Strategic Education shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Strategic Education's case, that would currently equate to about $2.4 per share.
While Strategic Education's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Strategic Education may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Strategic Education's most recent dividend payout was on 7 December 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 November 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Strategic Education's shares ever split?
Strategic Education's shares were
split on a 3:2 basis on 18 November 1997
. 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 Strategic Education shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Strategic Education shares which in turn could have impacted Strategic Education's share price.
Strategic Education share price volatility
