Valuing Investar Holding stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Investar Holding's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Investar Holding's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 13x. In other words, Investar Holding shares trade at around 13x 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.

Dividend payout ratio: 24.85% of net profits
Recently Investar Holding 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), Investar Holding shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Investar Holding's case, that would currently equate to about $0.405 per share.
While Investar Holding's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Investar Holding is investing more in its future growth.
Investar Holding's most recent dividend payout was on 30 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 29 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Investar Holding's shares have ranged in value from as little as $9.5902 up to $24.2638. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
