Is Intercontinental Exchange stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Intercontinental Exchange's P/E ratio

Intercontinental Exchange'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, Intercontinental Exchange shares trade at around 35x 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 stock or simply that they're over-valued.

Intercontinental Exchange's PEG ratio

Intercontinental Exchange's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.8311. 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 Intercontinental Exchange's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Intercontinental Exchange's EBITDA

Intercontinental Exchange's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $5.6 billion.

Intercontinental Exchange stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 30.15% of net profits

Recently Intercontinental Exchange has paid out, on average, around 0% 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), Intercontinental Exchange shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Intercontinental Exchange's case, that would currently equate to about $1.8 per share.

While Intercontinental Exchange's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Intercontinental Exchange may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Intercontinental Exchange's most recent dividend payout was on 30 March 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 16 March 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Intercontinental Exchange's stocks ever split?

Intercontinental Exchange's stocks were split on a 5:1 basis on 3 November 2016 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Intercontinental Exchange stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 80% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Intercontinental Exchange stocks, which in turn could have impacted Intercontinental Exchange's stock price.

Intercontinental Exchange stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Intercontinental Exchange's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $123.2257 up to $175.41. 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 Intercontinental Exchange's is 1.092. This would suggest that Intercontinental Exchange'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).
