Is nVent Electric stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

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.

nVent Electric's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 6.6348. 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 nVent Electric's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

nVent Electric share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 25.38% of net profits

Recently nVent Electric 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), nVent Electric shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In nVent Electric's case, that would currently equate to about $0.76 per share.

While nVent Electric's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that nVent Electric may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

nVent Electric's most recent dividend payout was on 6 February 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 16 January 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while nVent Electric's is 1.25. This would suggest that nVent Electric's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
