Is SWK stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

SWK's P/E ratio

SWK's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 19x. In other words, SWK shares trade at around 19x 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.

SWK share dividends

We're not expecting SWK to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have SWK's shares ever split?

SWK's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 6 October 2015 . So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your SWK shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for SWK shares which in turn could have impacted SWK's share price.

SWK share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, SWK's shares have ranged in value from as little as $15.14 up to $18.488. 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 SWK's is 0.364. This would suggest that SWK's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
