Is Barclays PLC ADR stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Barclays PLC ADR's P/E ratio

Barclays PLC ADR'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, Barclays PLC ADR 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 shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Barclays PLC ADR's PEG ratio

Barclays PLC ADR's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.2386. 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 Barclays PLC ADR's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Barclays PLC ADR share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 26.25% of net profits

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

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

Barclays PLC ADR's most recent dividend payout was on 19 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 15 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Barclays PLC ADR's shares ever split?

Barclays PLC ADR's shares were split on a 1085:1000 basis on 18 September 2013 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1085 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Barclays PLC ADR shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 7.8% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Barclays PLC ADR shares which in turn could have impacted Barclays PLC ADR's share price.

Barclays PLC ADR share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Barclays PLC ADR's shares have ranged in value from as little as $5.999 up to $13.2. 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 Barclays PLC ADR's is 1.363. This would suggest that Barclays PLC ADR's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
