Latest updates for Ford

October 30, 2024: Ford shares have dipped by around 8%, even though its latest earnings report beat revenue expectations, hitting $41.07 billion and earnings per share (EPS) reaching $0.49. Also, over 1,000 employees have agreed to strike over pay and contract changes.

Is Ford under- or over-valued?

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Ford P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

Ford's current stock 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, Ford's stocks trade at around 12x recent earnings.

That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of November 09, 2023 (20.44). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Ford's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.8859. A PEG ratio below 1 can be interpreted as meaning the shares are not overvalued given the current rate of growth.

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

Ford's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is a whopping $9.8 billion ($1 CAD).

The EBITDA is a measure of Ford's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
