Valuing Greencoat UK Wind stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Greencoat UK Wind's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Greencoat UK Wind's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, Greencoat UK Wind shares trade at around 35x 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: 13393.38% of net profits
Recently Greencoat UK Wind has paid out, on average, around 13393.38% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.38% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Greencoat UK Wind shareholders could enjoy a 5.38% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Greencoat UK Wind's case, that would currently equate to about 0.07p per share.
Greencoat UK Wind's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 5 November 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Greencoat UK Wind's shares have ranged in value from as little as 96.1833p up to 146.2108p. 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 Greencoat UK Wind's is 0.2589. This would suggest that Greencoat UK Wind's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
