Is H&T Group under- or over-valued?
Valuing H&T Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of H&T Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
H&T Group's P/E ratio
H&T 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 7x. In other words, H&T Group shares trade at around 7x 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.
H&T Group's EBITDA
H&T Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £23.4 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a H&T Group's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

H&T Group share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 12.04% of net profits
Recently H&T Group has paid out, on average, around 12.04% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.85% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), H&T Group shareholders could enjoy a 1.85% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In H&T Group's case, that would currently equate to about 0.05p per share.
While H&T Group's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that H&T Group is investing more in its future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 4 September 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
H&T Group share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, H&T Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as 195p up to 385.2649p. 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 H&T Group's is 0.8039. This would suggest that H&T Group's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
