Is Stryker Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Stryker Corporation's P/E ratio

Stryker Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 38x. In other words, Stryker Corporation shares trade at around 38x 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.

Stryker Corporation's PEG ratio

Stryker Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.5081. 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 Stryker Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Stryker Corporation's EBITDA

Stryker Corporation stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 27.49% of net profits

Recently Stryker Corporation 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), Stryker Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Stryker Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $3.2 per share.

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

Stryker Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 30 January 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 30 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Stryker Corporation's stocks ever split?

Stryker Corporation's stocks were split on a 2:1 basis on 16 May 2004 . 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 Stryker Corporation stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Stryker Corporation stocks, which in turn could have impacted Stryker Corporation's stock price.

Stryker Corporation stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Stryker Corporation's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $290.4305 up to $398.2. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."
