Is Moelis-and-Co stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Moelis-and-Co's P/E ratio

Moelis-and-Co's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 134x. In other words, Moelis-and-Co shares trade at around 134x 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.

Moelis-and-Co's PEG ratio

Moelis-and-Co's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.97. 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 Moelis-and-Co's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Moelis-and-Co share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 4.29% of net profits

Recently Moelis-and-Co 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), Moelis-and-Co shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Moelis-and-Co's case, that would currently equate to about $2.4 per share.

While Moelis-and-Co's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Moelis-and-Co is investing more in its future growth.

Moelis-and-Co's most recent dividend payout was on 1 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 3 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Moelis-and-Co's shares ever split?

Moelis-and-Co's shares were split on a 1:2 basis on 28 August 2014 . 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 Moelis-and-Co shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 100% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Moelis-and-Co shares which in turn could have impacted Moelis-and-Co's share price.

Moelis-and-Co share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Moelis-and-Co's shares have ranged in value from as little as $44.8585 up to $81.6. 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 Moelis-and-Co's is 1.342. This would suggest that Moelis-and-Co's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
