Is U.S. Bancorp stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

U.S. Bancorp's P/E ratio

U.S. Bancorp's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, U.S. Bancorp shares trade at around 15x 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.

U.S. Bancorp's PEG ratio

U.S. Bancorp's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.1641. 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 U.S. Bancorp's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the stock prices of multiple high-growth companies.

U.S. Bancorp stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 50.77% of net profits

Recently U.S. Bancorp 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), U.S. Bancorp shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In U.S. Bancorp's case, that would currently equate to about $1.97 per share.

U.S. Bancorp'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.

U.S. Bancorp's most recent dividend payout was on 14 January 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 30 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have U.S. Bancorp's stocks ever split?

U.S. Bancorp's stocks were split on a 3:1 basis on 15 April 1999 . So if you had owned 1 share 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 U.S. Bancorp stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for U.S. Bancorp stocks, which in turn could have impacted U.S. Bancorp's stock price.

U.S. Bancorp stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, U.S. Bancorp's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $36.9326 up to $53.98. 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 U.S. Bancorp's is 1.04. This would suggest that U.S. Bancorp'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).
