Is Arcos Dorados 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.

Arcos Dorados's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.15. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Arcos Dorados's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Arcos Dorados share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 27.16% of net profits
Recently Arcos Dorados has paid out, on average, around 27.16% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.42% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Arcos Dorados shareholders could enjoy a 2.42% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Arcos Dorados's case, that would currently equate to about $0.24 per share.
While Arcos Dorados's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Arcos Dorados may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Arcos Dorados's most recent dividend payout was on 26 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 19 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Arcos Dorados's shares ever split?
Arcos Dorados's shares were split on a 993:979 basis on 12 July 2021. So if you had owned 979 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 993 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Arcos Dorados shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1.4% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Arcos Dorados shares which in turn could have impacted Arcos Dorados's share price.
Arcos Dorados share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Arcos Dorados's shares have ranged in value from as little as $8.022 up to $12.9491. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Arcos Dorados's is 1.164. This would suggest that Arcos Dorados's shares 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).
