Is AstraZeneca PLC ADR stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

AstraZeneca PLC ADR's P/E ratio

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.

AstraZeneca PLC ADR's PEG ratio

AstraZeneca PLC ADR's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.6976. 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 AstraZeneca PLC ADR's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

AstraZeneca PLC ADR share dividends

46%

Dividend payout ratio: 46.3% of net profits

Recently AstraZeneca PLC ADR 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), AstraZeneca PLC ADR shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In AstraZeneca PLC ADR's case, that would currently equate to about $2.97 per share.

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

AstraZeneca PLC ADR's most recent dividend payout was on 8 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 8 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have AstraZeneca PLC ADR's shares ever split?

AstraZeneca PLC ADR's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 26 July 2015 . 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 AstraZeneca PLC ADR shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for AstraZeneca PLC ADR shares which in turn could have impacted AstraZeneca PLC ADR's share price.
