Is Cisco Systems stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Cisco Systems stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Cisco Systems's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Cisco Systems's P/E ratio
Cisco Systems's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 29x. In other words, Cisco Systems shares trade at around 29x 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.
Cisco Systems's PEG ratio
Cisco Systems's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.8213. 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 Cisco Systems's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Cisco Systems share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 41.9% of net profits
Recently Cisco Systems 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), Cisco Systems shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Cisco Systems's case, that would currently equate to about $1.63 per share.
While Cisco Systems's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Cisco Systems may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Cisco Systems's most recent dividend payout was on 20 January 2026. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 1 January 2026 (the "ex-dividend date").

Cisco Systems's shares were
split on a 2:1 basis on 22 March 2000
. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Cisco Systems shares which in turn could have impacted Cisco Systems's share price.
