Valuing Nova stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Nova's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Nova's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 34x. In other words, Nova shares trade at around 34x 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.
Nova's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $183 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Nova's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

We're not expecting Nova to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Over the last 12 months, Nova's shares have ranged in value from as little as $123.445 up to $247.21. 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 Nova's is 1.467. This would suggest that Nova's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
