Is Dominion Energy stock undervalued or overvalued?

That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the stock or simply that they're under-valued.

Dominion Energy's PEG ratio

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

Dominion Energy stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 108.1% of net profits

Recently Dominion Energy 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), Dominion Energy shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Dominion Energy's case, that would currently equate to about $2.67 per share.

Dominion Energy'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.

Dominion Energy's most recent dividend payout was on 19 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 28 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Dominion Energy's stocks were split on a 2:1 basis on 19 November 2007 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Dominion Energy stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Dominion Energy stocks, which in turn could have impacted Dominion Energy's stock price.

Dominion Energy stock price volatility
