Is Kellanova stock undervalued or overvalued?

That's comparable to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29).

Kellanova's PEG ratio

Kellanova's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.6358. 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 Kellanova's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Kellanova share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 60.92% of net profits

Recently Kellanova 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), Kellanova shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Kellanova's case, that would currently equate to about $2.25 per share.

Kellanova'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.

Kellanova's most recent dividend payout was on 12 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 1 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Kellanova's shares ever split?

Kellanova's shares were split on a 1065:1000 basis on 1 October 2023 . So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1065 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Kellanova shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 6.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Kellanova shares which in turn could have impacted Kellanova's share price.

Kellanova share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Kellanova's shares have ranged in value from as little as $51.2417 up to $80.93. 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 Kellanova's is 0.395. This would suggest that Kellanova's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
