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.

Kraft Heinz's PEG ratio

Kraft Heinz's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.0488. 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 Kraft Heinz's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Kraft Heinz stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 52.29% of net profits

Recently Kraft Heinz 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), Kraft Heinz shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Kraft Heinz's case, that would currently equate to about $1.6 per share.

Kraft Heinz'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.
