Is LSI Industries stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

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.

LSI Industries's PEG ratio

LSI Industries's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.3858. 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 LSI Industries's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

LSI Industries share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 21.74% of net profits

Recently LSI Industries 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), LSI Industries shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In LSI Industries's case, that would currently equate to about $0.2 per share.

While LSI Industries's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that LSI Industries is investing more in its future growth.

LSI Industries's most recent dividend payout was on 25 November 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have LSI Industries's shares ever split?

LSI Industries's shares were split on a 5:4 basis on 16 November 2003 . So if you had owned 4 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your LSI Industries shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 20% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for LSI Industries shares which in turn could have impacted LSI Industries's share price.
