Is Albany International Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?

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 shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Albany International Corporation share dividends

Recently Albany International 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), Albany International Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Albany International Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.04 per share.

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

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Albany International Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 2% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Albany International Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Albany International Corporation's share price.
