Is Service Corporation International stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Service Corporation International stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Service Corporation International's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

Service Corporation International's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 25x. In other words, Service Corporation International shares trade at around 25x 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.
Service Corporation International's PEG ratio
Service Corporation International's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.7817. 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 Service Corporation International's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Service Corporation International share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 35% of net profits
Recently Service Corporation International 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), Service Corporation International shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Service Corporation International's case, that would currently equate to about $1.19 per share.
While Service Corporation International's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Service Corporation International may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Service Corporation International's most recent dividend payout was on 30 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 12 December 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Service Corporation International's shares ever split?
Service Corporation International's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 2 September 1996 . 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 Service Corporation International shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Service Corporation International shares which in turn could have impacted Service Corporation International's share price.
Service Corporation International share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Service Corporation International's shares have ranged in value from as little as $63.3427 up to $89.37. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
