Valuing Alliance Pharma stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Alliance Pharma's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Alliance Pharma's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 42x. In other words, Alliance Pharma shares trade at around 42x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the FTSE 250 at the end of September 2019 (19.71). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

Dividend payout ratio: 25.65% of net profits
Recently Alliance Pharma has paid out, on average, around 25.65% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.23% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Alliance Pharma shareholders could enjoy a 1.23% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Alliance Pharma's case, that would currently equate to about 0.01p per share.
While Alliance Pharma's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Alliance Pharma may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 December 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Alliance Pharma's shares have ranged in value from as little as 54.862p up to 91p. 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 (LSE average) beta is 1, while Alliance Pharma's is 0.4377. This would suggest that Alliance Pharma's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
