Is Star Gas Partners stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Star Gas Partners stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Star Gas Partners'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.

Star Gas Partners share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 43.34% of net profits
Recently Star Gas Partners 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), Star Gas Partners shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Star Gas Partners's case, that would currently equate to about $0.67 per share.
While Star Gas Partners's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Star Gas Partners may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Star Gas Partners's most recent dividend payout was on 5 November 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 October 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Star Gas Partners's shares ever split?
Star Gas Partners's shares were split on a 20:1 basis on 22 December 2013 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 20 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Star Gas Partners shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 95% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Star Gas Partners shares which in turn could have impacted Star Gas Partners's share price.
Star Gas Partners share price volatility
