Is Home Depot stock undervalued or overvalued?

Valuing Home Depot stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Home Depot's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

Home Depot's P/E ratio

Home Depot's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 24x. In other words, Home Depot shares trade at around 24x recent earnings.

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.

Home Depot's PEG ratio

Home Depot's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.1139. 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 Home Depot's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Home Depot's EBITDA

Home Depot's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $25.3 billion.

Home Depot stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 60.21% of net profits

Recently Home Depot 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), Home Depot shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Home Depot's case, that would currently equate to about $9.05 per share.

Home Depot'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.

Home Depot's most recent dividend payout was on 26 March 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 12 March 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Home Depot's stocks ever split?

Home Depot's stocks were split on a 3:2 basis on 30 December 1999 . So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Home Depot stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Home Depot stocks, which in turn could have impacted Home Depot's stock price.

Home Depot stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Home Depot's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $315.9146 up to $434.3122. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Home Depot's is 1.091. This would suggest that Home Depot's stocks 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).
