Valuing Citizens Financial Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Citizens Financial Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Citizens Financial Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 17x. In other words, Citizens Financial Group shares trade at around 17x 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.
Citizens Financial Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.94. 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 Citizens Financial Group's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

There are currently 6.5 million Citizens Financial Group shares held short by investors – that's known as Citizens Financial Group's "short interest". This figure is 23.3% down from 8.5 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Citizens Financial Group shares can be evaluated.
Citizens Financial Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Citizens Financial Group shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Citizens Financial Group shares traded daily (recently around 3.3 million). Citizens Financial Group's SIR currently stands at 1.98. In other words for every 100,000 Citizens Financial Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1980 shares are currently held short.
However Citizens Financial Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Citizens Financial Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable Citizens Financial Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Citizens Financial Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Citizens Financial Group shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0174% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Citizens Financial Group shares, roughly 17 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Citizens Financial Group.

Dividend payout ratio: 36.71% of net profits
Recently Citizens Financial Group has paid out, on average, around 36.71% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.06% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Citizens Financial Group shareholders could enjoy a 4.06% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Citizens Financial Group's case, that would currently equate to about $1.56 per share.
While Citizens Financial Group's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Citizens Financial Group may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Citizens Financial Group's most recent dividend payout was on 17 February 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 2 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Citizens Financial Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $13.4689 up to $41.67. 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 Citizens Financial Group's is 1.8398. This would suggest that Citizens Financial Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
