Is Vaccinex stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Vaccinex's P/E ratio

Vaccinex's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 0x. In other words, Vaccinex shares trade at around 0x 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.

Vaccinex share dividends

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

Have Vaccinex's shares ever split?

Vaccinex's shares were split on a 1:14 basis on 19 February 2024 . So if you had owned 14 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 Vaccinex shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1300% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Vaccinex shares which in turn could have impacted Vaccinex's share price.

Vaccinex share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Vaccinex's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.76 up to $13.02. 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 Vaccinex's is 0.985. This would suggest that Vaccinex's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
