Is IES stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

IES's P/E ratio

IES's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 34x. In other words, IES shares trade at around 34x 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.

IES's EBITDA

IES's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $316.7 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a IES's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

IES share dividends

We're not expecting IES to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have IES's shares ever split?

IES's shares were split on a 1000:17092 basis on 14 May 2006 . So if you had owned 17092 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1000 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your IES shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1609.2% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for IES shares which in turn could have impacted IES's share price.

IES share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, IES's shares have ranged in value from as little as $76.26 up to $320.085. 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 IES's is 1.372. This would suggest that IES's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
