Valuing DexCom stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of DexCom's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
DexCom's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 49x. In other words, DexCom shares trade at around 49x 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.
DexCom's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.2651. 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 DexCom's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
DexCom's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $840.4 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a DexCom'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.
Total ESG risk: 29.18
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and DexCom's overall score of 29.18 (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 DexCom 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: 10.43/100
DexCom's environmental score of 10.43 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that DexCom is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 17.04/100

We're not expecting DexCom to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
DexCom's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 12 June 2022 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your DexCom shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for DexCom shares which in turn could have impacted DexCom's share price.
Over the last 12 months, DexCom's shares have ranged in value from as little as $62.34 up to $142. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while DexCom's is 1.173. This would suggest that DexCom'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).
