Valuing Salesforce stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Salesforce's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Salesforce's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 44x. In other words, Salesforce shares trade at around 44x 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.
Salesforce's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.5771. 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 Salesforce's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Salesforce's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $9.2 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Salesforce's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 8.93% of net profits
Recently Salesforce has paid out, on average, around 8.93% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.65% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Salesforce shareholders could enjoy a 0.65% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Salesforce's case, that would currently equate to about $0.4 per share.
While Salesforce's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Salesforce is investing more in its future growth.
Salesforce's most recent dividend payout was on 24 July 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 8 July 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Salesforce's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 17 April 2013. 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 Salesforce shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Salesforce shares which in turn could have impacted Salesforce's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Salesforce's shares have ranged in value from as little as $193.1267 up to $317.8046. 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 Salesforce's is 1.291. This would suggest that Salesforce's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
