Alternative ways to invest in Netcall
Buying shares in just one company can leave you more exposed to unexpected swings in the market than if you have a range of investments - a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend having a broad mix of assets and funds that hold a ready-made portfolio of at least 50 different companies' shares, on the basis that drops in the value of some will be offset by rises elsewhere.
Netcall is a major part of the LSE index, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Is Netcall 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 Netcall P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA
Netcall's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 56x. In other words, Netcall shares trade at around 56x 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.
Netcall's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £4.1 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Netcall's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Forward annual dividend yield: 0.48% of stock value
Dividend payout ratio: 26.09% of net profits
Netcall has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 0.48% of its share value annually.
Netcall has paid out, on average, around 26.09% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.48% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 0.48% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Netcall's case, that would currently equate to about 0.5p per share.
While Netcall's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that it may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 15 December 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
