Is Daktronics stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Daktronics stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Daktronics's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Daktronics's P/E ratio
Daktronics's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 64x. In other words, Daktronics shares trade at around 64x 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.
Daktronics's PEG ratio
Daktronics's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.4333. 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 Daktronics's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Daktronics's EBITDA

Daktronics share dividends
We're not expecting Daktronics to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Have Daktronics's shares ever split?
Daktronics's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 22 June 2006. 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 Daktronics shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Daktronics shares which in turn could have impacted Daktronics's share price.
Daktronics share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Daktronics's shares have ranged in value from as little as $7.2 up to $15.97. 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 Daktronics's is 1.146. This would suggest that Daktronics'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).
