Is Mercantile Bank Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Mercantile Bank Corporation's P/E ratio

Mercantile Bank Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, Mercantile Bank Corporation shares trade at around 9x 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.

Mercantile Bank Corporation's PEG ratio

Mercantile Bank Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.51. 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 Mercantile Bank Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Mercantile Bank Corporation share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 28.51% of net profits

Recently Mercantile Bank Corporation 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.

In Mercantile Bank Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.4 per share.

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

Mercantile Bank Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 17 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 5 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Mercantile Bank Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 4.8% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Mercantile Bank Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Mercantile Bank Corporation's share price.
