Is Mistras Group stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Mistras Group's P/E ratio

Mistras Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 25x. In other words, Mistras Group shares trade at around 25x 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.

Mistras Group's PEG ratio

Mistras Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.6837. 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 Mistras Group's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Have Mistras Group's shares ever split?

Mistras Group's shares were split on a 1:2 basis on 25 March 2015 . So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Mistras Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 100% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Mistras Group shares which in turn could have impacted Mistras Group's share price.

Mistras Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Mistras Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $7.09 up to $12.435. 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 Mistras Group's is 1.758. This would suggest that Mistras Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
