Is Clear Secure stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Clear Secure's P/E ratio

Clear Secure's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 30x. In other words, Clear Secure shares trade at around 30x 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.

Clear Secure's EBITDA

Clear Secure share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 59.17% of net profits

Recently Clear Secure 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), Clear Secure shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Clear Secure's case, that would currently equate to about $0.38 per share.

Clear Secure'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.

Clear Secure's most recent dividend payout was on 16 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 9 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Clear Secure share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Clear Secure's shares have ranged in value from as little as $15.8376 up to $38.703. 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 Clear Secure's is 1.588. This would suggest that Clear Secure's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
