Valuing RPS Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of RPS Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
RPS 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 12x. In other words, RPS Group shares trade at around 12x 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.
RPS Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £39 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a RPS Group's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

RPS Group's shares were split on a 5:1 basis on 21 December 2000. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your RPS Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 80% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for RPS Group shares which in turn could have impacted RPS Group's share price.
Over the last 12 months, RPS Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as 28.235p up to 175.4994p. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
