Valuing United Airlines stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of United Airlines's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
United Airlines's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, United Airlines shares trade at around 9x 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.
United Airlines's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.8102. 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 United Airlines's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.
United Airlines's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $8.1 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a United Airlines's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

We're not expecting United Airlines to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
United Airlines's stocks were split on a 4:1 basis on 20 May 1996 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your United Airlines stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for United Airlines stocks, which in turn could have impacted United Airlines's stock price.
Over the last 12 months, United Airlines's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $37.02 up to $116. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while United Airlines's is 1.414. This would suggest that United Airlines's stocks are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
