Is iomart Group under- or over-valued?
Valuing iomart Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of iomart Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

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.

iomart Group share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 64.02% of net profits
Recently iomart Group has paid out, on average, around 64.02% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.02% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), iomart Group shareholders could enjoy a 2.02% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In iomart Group's case, that would currently equate to about 0.07p per share.
iomart Group'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 7 January 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
