Valuing Peoples Fin stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Peoples Fin's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Peoples Fin's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 67x. In other words, Peoples Fin shares trade at around 67x 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.

Dividend payout ratio: 60.63% of net profits
Recently Peoples Fin 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), Peoples Fin shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Peoples Fin's case, that would currently equate to about $1.848 per share.
Peoples Fin'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.
Peoples Fin's most recent dividend payout was on 12 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 28 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Peoples Fin's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 15 May 2003 . So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Peoples Fin shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Peoples Fin shares which in turn could have impacted Peoples Fin's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Peoples Fin's shares have ranged in value from as little as $35.4192 up to $56.5. 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 Peoples Fin's is 0.493. This would suggest that Peoples Fin's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
