Is Summit Financial Group stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Summit Financial Group's P/E ratio

Summit Financial Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 7x. In other words, Summit Financial Group shares trade at around 7x 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.

Summit Financial Group's PEG ratio

Summit Financial Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.49. 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 Summit Financial Group's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Summit Financial Group share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 22.16% of net profits

Recently Summit Financial Group 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), Summit Financial Group shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Summit Financial Group's case, that would currently equate to about $0.86 per share.

While Summit Financial Group's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Summit Financial Group is investing more in its future growth.

Summit Financial Group's most recent dividend payout was on 28 March 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 13 March 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Summit Financial Group's shares ever split?

Summit Financial Group's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 15 December 2004 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Summit Financial Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Summit Financial Group shares which in turn could have impacted Summit Financial Group's share price.

Summit Financial Group share price volatility
