Is CRA International stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing CRA International stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of CRA International's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
CRA International's P/E ratio
CRA International's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 33x. In other words, CRA International shares trade at around 33x 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.
CRA International's PEG ratio
CRA International's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.5921. 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 CRA International's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
CRA International's EBITDA
CRA International's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $69.3 million.

CRA International share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 25.65% of net profits
Recently CRA International 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), CRA International shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In CRA International's case, that would currently equate to about $1.62 per share.
While CRA International's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that CRA International may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
CRA International's most recent dividend payout was on 12 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 26 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
CRA International share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, CRA International's shares have ranged in value from as little as $80.2932 up to $198.02. 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 CRA International's is 1.14. This would suggest that CRA International'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).
