Boralex's P/E ratio

Boralex's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, Boralex shares trade at around 35x recent earnings.

Boralex's PEG ratio

Boralex's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.2204. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the stocks offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the stocks offer worse value.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Boralex's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Boralex stock dividends

77%

Dividend payout ratio: 76.59% of net profits

Recently Boralex has paid out, on average, around 100% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Boralex shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Boralex's case, that would currently equate to about C$0 per share.

Boralex'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.

Boralex's most recent dividend payout was on 15 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 28 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Boralex's stocks ever split?

Boralex's stocks were split on a 1:10 basis on 3 April 1997 . So if you had owned 10 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 Boralex stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Boralex stocks, which in turn could have impacted Boralex's stock price.

Boralex stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Boralex's stocks have ranged in value from as little as C$25.8388 up to C$36.4163. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."

Beta is a measure of a stocks volatility in relation to the market. The market (TO average) beta is 1, while Boralex's is 0.458. This would suggest that Boralex's stocks are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
