Is Woori Financial Group stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Woori Financial Group's P/E ratio

Woori 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 5x. In other words, Woori Financial Group shares trade at around 5x 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.

Woori Financial Group's PEG ratio

Woori Financial Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.4556. 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 Woori 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.

Woori Financial Group share dividends

47%

Dividend payout ratio: 47.15% of net profits

Recently Woori Financial Group has paid out, on average, around 47.15% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 8.34% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Woori Financial Group shareholders could enjoy a 8.34% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Woori Financial Group's case, that would currently equate to about $1180 per share.

While Woori Financial Group's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Woori Financial Group may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Woori Financial Group's most recent dividend payout was on 14 August 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 June 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Woori Financial Group's shares ever split?

Woori Financial Group's shares were split on a 839:1000 basis on 21 May 2014. So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 839 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Woori Financial Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 19.2% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Woori Financial Group shares which in turn could have impacted Woori Financial Group's share price.

Woori Financial Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Woori Financial Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $23.2912 up to $38.05. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

WF.US volatility(beta: 0.67)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Woori Financial Group's is 0.671. This would suggest that Woori Financial Group's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
