We're not expecting nLIGHT to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Over the last 12 months, nLIGHT's shares have ranged in value from as little as $9.8 up to $15. 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 nLIGHT's is 2.323. This would suggest that nLIGHT's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
