Valuing Alibaba Group Holding stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Alibaba Group Holding's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Alibaba Group Holding's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 18x. In other words, Alibaba Group Holding shares trade at around 18x 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.
Alibaba Group Holding's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.5506. 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 Alibaba Group Holding's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Alibaba Group Holding's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $183.2 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Alibaba Group Holding's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 2.66% of net profits
Recently Alibaba Group Holding has paid out, on average, around 2.66% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.6% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Alibaba Group Holding shareholders could enjoy a 2.6% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Alibaba Group Holding's case, that would currently equate to about $7.221 per share.
While Alibaba Group Holding's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Alibaba Group Holding is investing more in its future growth.
Alibaba Group Holding's most recent dividend payout was on 11 July 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 12 June 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Alibaba Group Holding's shares have ranged in value from as little as $66.0665 up to $100.2965. 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 Alibaba Group Holding's is 0.318. This would suggest that Alibaba Group Holding's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
