Is Restore under- or over-valued?
Valuing Restore stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Restore's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Restore's P/E ratio
Restore's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 211x. In other words, Restore shares trade at around 211x 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.
Restore's EBITDA
Restore's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £45.3 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Restore's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Restore share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 160% of net profits
Recently Restore has paid out, on average, around 160% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.46% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Restore shareholders could enjoy a 2.46% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Restore's case, that would currently equate to about 0.1p per share.
Restore'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 28 May 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Restore's shares ever split?
Restore's shares were split on a 1:50 basis on 23 July 2010. So if you had owned 50 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 Restore shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 4900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Restore shares which in turn could have impacted Restore's share price.
Restore share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Restore's shares have ranged in value from as little as 280p up to 552.832p. 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 Restore's is 0.8207. This would suggest that Restore's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
