Valuing UGI Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of UGI Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
UGI 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 8x. In other words, UGI Corporation shares trade at around 8x 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.
UGI Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.65. 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 UGI 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.
UGI Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1.8 billion.

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Total ESG risk: 39.84
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and UGI Corporation's overall score of 39.84 (as at 12/31/2018) is pretty weak – landing it in it in the 83rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like UGI Corporation 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.).
Environmental score: 19.22/100
UGI Corporation's environmental score of 19.22 puts it squarely in the 5th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that UGI Corporation is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 17.06/100
UGI Corporation's social score of 17.06 puts it squarely in the 5th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that UGI Corporation is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

Dividend payout ratio: 46.01% of net profits
Recently UGI Corporation has paid out, on average, around 46.01% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 6.06% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), UGI Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 6.06% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In UGI Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.5 per share.
While UGI Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that UGI Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
UGI Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 30 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 15 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
UGI Corporation's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 7 September 2014 . 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 UGI Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for UGI Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted UGI Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, UGI Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $18.9416 up to $25.57. 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 UGI Corporation's is 1.143. This would suggest that UGI 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).
