Valuing Wells Fargo stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Wells Fargo's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Wells Fargo's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 12x. In other words, Wells Fargo shares trade at around 12x 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.
Wells Fargo's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 23.6771. 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 Wells Fargo's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 22.24% of net profits
Recently Wells Fargo has paid out, on average, around 22.24% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.68% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Wells Fargo shareholders could enjoy a 2.68% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Wells Fargo's case, that would currently equate to about $1.4 per share.
While Wells Fargo's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Wells Fargo is investing more in its future growth.
Wells Fargo's most recent dividend payout was on 31 May 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 8 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Wells Fargo's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 13 August 2006. 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 Wells Fargo shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Wells Fargo shares which in turn could have impacted Wells Fargo's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Wells Fargo's shares have ranged in value from as little as $37.5694 up to $62.55. 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 Wells Fargo's is 1.168. This would suggest that Wells Fargo'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).
