Valuing Eastern Bank stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Eastern Bank's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Eastern Bank's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, Eastern Bank shares trade at around 35x 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.
However, Eastern Bank's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the banks - regional industry or those of similar companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 56.25% of net profits
Recently Eastern Bank has paid out, on average, around 100% 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), Eastern Bank shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Eastern Bank's case, that would currently equate to about $0.44 per share.
Eastern Bank's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
Eastern Bank's most recent dividend payout was on 15 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 2 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Eastern Bank's dividend payout ratio is perhaps best considered in relation to those of similar companies.
Over the last 12 months, Eastern Bank's shares have ranged in value from as little as $11.5391 up to $19.145. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Eastern Bank's is 0.883. This would suggest that Eastern Bank's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
To put Eastern Bank's beta into context you can compare it against those of similar companies.
