Valuing ConAgra Foods stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of ConAgra Foods's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
ConAgra Foods's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, ConAgra Foods shares trade at around 35x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
ConAgra Foods's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.3368. 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 ConAgra Foods's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 59.57% of net profits
Recently ConAgra Foods has paid out, on average, around 100% 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), ConAgra Foods shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In ConAgra Foods's case, that would currently equate to about $1.4 per share.
ConAgra Foods's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
ConAgra Foods's most recent dividend payout was on 28 May 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 April 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
ConAgra Foods's shares were split on a 1285:1000 basis on 9 November 2016 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1285 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your ConAgra Foods shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 22.2% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for ConAgra Foods shares which in turn could have impacted ConAgra Foods's share price.
Over the last 12 months, ConAgra Foods's shares have ranged in value from as little as $22.7299 up to $31.935. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
