Is PJT Partners stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

PJT Partners's P/E ratio

PJT Partners's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 32x. In other words, PJT Partners shares trade at around 32x 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.

PJT Partners's PEG ratio

PJT Partners's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.36. 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 PJT Partners's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

PJT Partners share dividends

26%

Dividend payout ratio: 25.58% of net profits

Recently PJT Partners has paid out, on average, around 25.58% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.81% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), PJT Partners shareholders could enjoy a 0.81% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In PJT Partners's case, that would currently equate to about $1 per share.

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

PJT Partners's most recent dividend payout was on 17 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 3 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

PJT Partners share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, PJT Partners's shares have ranged in value from as little as $70.9464 up to $136.895. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

PJT.US volatility(beta: 0.6)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while PJT Partners's is 0.603. This would suggest that PJT Partners's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
