Valuing Vertex stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Vertex's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Vertex's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 279x. In other words, Vertex shares trade at around 279x 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.
Vertex's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $24 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Vertex's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
