Is Elbit Systems stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Elbit Systems stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Elbit Systems's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Elbit Systems's P/E ratio
Elbit Systems's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 38x. In other words, Elbit Systems shares trade at around 38x 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.
Elbit Systems's PEG ratio
Elbit Systems's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.21. 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 Elbit Systems's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Elbit Systems's EBITDA
Elbit Systems's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $568.6 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Elbit Systems's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Elbit Systems share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 28.17% of net profits
Recently Elbit Systems has paid out, on average, around 28.17% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.95% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Elbit Systems shareholders could enjoy a 0.95% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Elbit Systems's case, that would currently equate to about $2 per share.
While Elbit Systems's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Elbit Systems may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Elbit Systems's most recent dividend payout was on 27 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 14 October 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Elbit Systems share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Elbit Systems's shares have ranged in value from as little as $175.3 up to $224.4708. 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 Elbit Systems's is -0.12. This would suggest that Elbit Systems's shares have been inversely-correlated to the average (for this exchange) – so when the broader market trended up or down, Elbit Systems has bucked the trend.
