Is Bank First National stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Bank First National's P/E ratio

Bank First National's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 12x. In other words, Bank First National shares trade at around 12x 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 shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Bank First National share dividends

25%

Dividend payout ratio: 25.16% of net profits

Recently Bank First National 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), Bank First National shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Bank First National's case, that would currently equate to about $1.4 per share.

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

Bank First National's most recent dividend payout was on 5 January 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 22 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Bank First National's shares ever split?

Bank First National's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 20 October 2002 . 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 Bank First National shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Bank First National shares which in turn could have impacted Bank First National's share price.

Bank First National share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Bank First National's shares have ranged in value from as little as $73.908 up to $109.9954. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Bank First National's is 0.3. This would suggest that Bank First National's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
