United Rentals's P/E ratio
United Rentals'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, United Rentals 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.
United Rentals's PEG ratio
United Rentals's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.2482. 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.

United Rentals share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 15.45% of net profits
Recently United Rentals 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), United Rentals shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In United Rentals's case, that would currently equate to about $6.52 per share.
While United Rentals's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that United Rentals is investing more in its future growth.
United Rentals's most recent dividend payout was on 25 February 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 11 February 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while United Rentals's is 1.767.
