Is Centamin under- or over-valued?

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. Check out the Centamin P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA

Centamin's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 16x. In other words, Centamin shares trade at around 16x recent earnings.

That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the FTSE 250 at the end of September 2019 (19.71). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.

However, Centamin's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the gold industry or those of similar companies.

Centamin's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £348.2 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Centamin's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

To put that into context you can compare it against similar companies.
