Valuing Lennar Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Lennar Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Lennar Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 11x. In other words, Lennar Corporation shares trade at around 11x 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.
Lennar Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.1937. 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 Lennar Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 13.25% of net profits
Recently Lennar Corporation 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), Lennar Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Lennar Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.875 per share.
While Lennar Corporation's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Lennar Corporation is investing more in its future growth.
Lennar Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 23 October 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 8 October 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Lennar Corporation's shares were split on a 1017:1000 basis on 8 November 2017 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1017 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Lennar Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Lennar Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Lennar Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Lennar Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $123.5794 up to $193.2653. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Lennar Corporation's is 1.619. This would suggest that Lennar Corporation's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
