Is Stenprop under- or over-valued?
Valuing Stenprop stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Stenprop's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Stenprop's P/E ratio
Stenprop's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, Stenprop shares trade at around 15x 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.
Stenprop's EBITDA
Stenprop's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £23.2 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Stenprop's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Stenprop share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 68.18% of net profits
Recently Stenprop has paid out, on average, around 68.18% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Stenprop shareholders could enjoy a 5% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Stenprop's case, that would currently equate to about 0.07p per share.
Stenprop'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 21 January 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Stenprop share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Stenprop's shares have ranged in value from as little as 87.6388p up to 136p. 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 Stenprop's is 0.2152. This would suggest that Stenprop's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
