Is Community Trust Bancorp stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Community Trust Bancorp's P/E ratio

Community Trust 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 12x. In other words, Community Trust Bancorp 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.

Community Trust Bancorp's PEG ratio

Community Trust Bancorp's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 3.55. 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 Community Trust Bancorp's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Community Trust Bancorp share dividends

42%

Dividend payout ratio: 42.27% of net profits

Recently Community Trust Bancorp 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), Community Trust Bancorp shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Community Trust Bancorp's case, that would currently equate to about $1.85 per share.

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

Community Trust Bancorp's most recent dividend payout was on 1 January 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 12 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Community Trust Bancorp's shares ever split?

Community Trust Bancorp's shares were split on a 11:10 basis on 12 May 2014 . So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 11 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Community Trust Bancorp shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Community Trust Bancorp shares which in turn could have impacted Community Trust Bancorp's share price.

Community Trust Bancorp share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Community Trust Bancorp's shares have ranged in value from as little as $36.9119 up to $61.1687. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

CTBI.US volatility(beta: 0.65)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh
