Alternative ways to invest in IES Holdings

Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including IES Holdings), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.

IES Holdings is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Is IES Holdings under- or over-valued?

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the IES Holdings P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

IES Holdings's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 27x. In other words, IES Holdings's shares trade at around 27x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of November 09, 2023 (20.44). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

IES Holdings's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $316.7 million (£0.0 million).

The EBITDA is a measure of IES Holdings's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
