Valuing Charter Communications stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Charter Communications's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Charter Communications's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Charter Communications shares trade at around 10x 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.
Charter Communications's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.3601. 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 Charter Communications's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Charter Communications's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $21.9 billion.

We're not expecting Charter Communications to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Charter Communications's shares were split on a 689:762 basis on 17 May 2016 . So if you had owned 762 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 689 shares.

However, indirectly, the new 10.6% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Charter Communications shares which in turn could have impacted Charter Communications's share price.
