Is Oasis Petroleum stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Oasis Petroleum's P/E ratio

Oasis Petroleum's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, Oasis Petroleum shares trade at around 9x 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.

Oasis Petroleum's PEG ratio

Oasis Petroleum's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 16.3835. 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 Oasis Petroleum's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Oasis Petroleum share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 115.24% of net profits

Recently Oasis Petroleum 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), Oasis Petroleum shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Oasis Petroleum's case, that would currently equate to about $5.045 per share.

Oasis Petroleum'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.

Oasis Petroleum's most recent dividend payout was on 7 July 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 June 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").

Oasis Petroleum share price volatility

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Oasis Petroleum's is 3.9391. This would suggest that Oasis Petroleum's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
