Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value.
Assurant's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 21x. In other words, Assurant shares trade at around 21x 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.
Assurant's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.46. A PEG ratio over 1 can be interpreted as meaning shares are overvalued at the current rate of growth, or may anticipate an acceleration in growth.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Assurant's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Assurant's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $719.8 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Assurant's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 26.92% of net profits
Assurant has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 2.18% of its share value annually.
Assurant has paid out, on average, around 26.92% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.18% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 2.18% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Assurant's case, that would currently equate to about $2.72 per share.
While Assurant's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that it may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Assurant's most recent dividend payout was on 18 December 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 24 November 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Assurant's shares have ranged in value from as little as $118.3543 up to $191.5324. 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 Assurant's is 0.5. This would suggest that Assurant's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
