Valuing Salesforce stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Salesforce's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Salesforce's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 39x. In other words, Salesforce shares trade at around 39x 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.
Salesforce's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.1224. 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 Salesforce's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Salesforce's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $11.1 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Salesforce's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

TTM: trailing 12 months
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Salesforce.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Total ESG risk: 13.24
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Salesforce's overall score of 13.24 (as at 12/31/2018) is excellent – landing it in it in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Salesforce is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 0.97/100
Salesforce's environmental score of 0.97 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 5.99/100
Salesforce's social score of 5.99 puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Governance score: 4.28/100
Salesforce's governance score puts it squarely in the 4th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Salesforce is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Controversy score: 2/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Salesforce scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that Salesforce has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
Salesforce.com Inc was last rated for ESG on: 2019-01-01.

Dividend payout ratio: 15.86% of net profits
Recently Salesforce 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), Salesforce shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Salesforce's case, that would currently equate to about $1.6 per share.
While Salesforce's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Salesforce is investing more in its future growth.
Salesforce's most recent dividend payout was on 23 April 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 9 April 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Salesforce's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 17 April 2013 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Salesforce shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Salesforce shares which in turn could have impacted Salesforce's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Salesforce's shares have ranged in value from as little as $210.7667 up to $368.0012. 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 Salesforce's is 1.381. This would suggest that Salesforce's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
