Is VeriSign stock undervalued or overvalued?

VeriSign's P/E ratio
VeriSign's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 28x. In other words, VeriSign shares trade at around 28x recent earnings.
That's comparable to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29).
VeriSign's PEG ratio
VeriSign's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.0792. 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.

VeriSign share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 26.92% of net profits
Recently VeriSign 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), VeriSign shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In VeriSign's case, that would currently equate to about $1.54 per share.
While VeriSign's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that VeriSign may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
VeriSign's most recent dividend payout was on 24 November 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 November 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

VeriSign's shares were
split on a 2:1 basis on 6 December 1999
. 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 VeriSign shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for VeriSign shares which in turn could have impacted VeriSign's share price.
VeriSign share price volatility
