Is Palace Capital under- or over-valued?
Valuing Palace Capital stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Palace Capital's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Palace Capital's P/E ratio
Palace Capital's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 312x. In other words, Palace Capital shares trade at around 312x 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.
Palace Capital's EBITDA
Palace Capital's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £11.2 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Palace Capital's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Have Palace Capital's shares ever split?
Palace Capital's shares were split on a 1:100 basis on 21 October 2013. So if you had owned 100 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Palace Capital shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Palace Capital shares which in turn could have impacted Palace Capital's share price.
Palace Capital share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Palace Capital's shares have ranged in value from as little as 156.8767p up to 323.962p. 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 Palace Capital's is 1.108. This would suggest that Palace Capital's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
