Is Brunswick Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Brunswick Corporation's P/E ratio

Brunswick 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 16x. In other words, Brunswick Corporation shares trade at around 16x 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.

Brunswick Corporation's PEG ratio

Brunswick Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.2754. 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 Brunswick 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.

Brunswick Corporation's EBITDA

Brunswick Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $811.7 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Brunswick Corporation's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Brunswick Corporation share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 29.12% of net profits

Recently Brunswick 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), Brunswick Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Brunswick Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.66 per share.

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

Brunswick Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 12 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 19 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Brunswick Corporation's shares ever split?

Brunswick Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 9 June 1987 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Brunswick Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Brunswick Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Brunswick Corporation's share price.

Brunswick Corporation share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Brunswick Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $66.77 up to $97.6451. 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 Brunswick Corporation's is 1.512. This would suggest that Brunswick 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).
