Is Ellington Residential Mortgage stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Ellington Residential Mortgage's P/E ratio

Ellington Residential Mortgage's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 5x. In other words, Ellington Residential Mortgage shares trade at around 5x 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.

Ellington Residential Mortgage share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 27.12% of net profits

Recently Ellington Residential Mortgage 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), Ellington Residential Mortgage shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Ellington Residential Mortgage's case, that would currently equate to about $0.96 per share.

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

Ellington Residential Mortgage's most recent dividend payout was on 26 January 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Ellington Residential Mortgage share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Ellington Residential Mortgage's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.922 up to $6.99. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Ellington Residential Mortgage's is 1.905. This would suggest that Ellington Residential Mortgage's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
