Valuing National Bankshares stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of National Bankshares's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
National Bankshares's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 21x. In other words, National Bankshares shares trade at around 21x 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: 116.15% of net profits
Recently National Bankshares has paid out, on average, around 100% 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), National Bankshares shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In National Bankshares's case, that would currently equate to about $1.51 per share.
National Bankshares's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
National Bankshares's most recent dividend payout was on 2 June 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 23 May 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
National Bankshares's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 2 April 2006 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your National Bankshares shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for National Bankshares shares which in turn could have impacted National Bankshares's share price.
Over the last 12 months, National Bankshares's shares have ranged in value from as little as $24.5601 up to $36.0936. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while National Bankshares's is 0.507. This would suggest that National Bankshares's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
