Is Seagate Technology stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Seagate Technology stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Seagate Technology's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Seagate Technology's P/E ratio
Seagate Technology's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 62x. In other words, Seagate Technology shares trade at around 62x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Seagate Technology's PEG ratio
Seagate Technology's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.3628. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Seagate Technology's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Seagate Technology's EBITDA
Seagate Technology's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $692 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Seagate Technology's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Seagate Technology share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 2.19% of net profits
Recently Seagate Technology has paid out, on average, around 2.19% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.87% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Seagate Technology shareholders could enjoy a 2.87% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Seagate Technology's case, that would currently equate to about $2.8 per share.
While Seagate Technology's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Seagate Technology is investing more in its future growth.
Seagate Technology's most recent dividend payout was on 6 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 22 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Seagate Technology's shares were split on 18 May 2021.
Seagate Technology share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Seagate Technology's shares have ranged in value from as little as $60.3418 up to $113.57. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Seagate Technology's is 1.045. This would suggest that Seagate Technology'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).
