3M Company's shares were split on a 1196:1000 basis on 31 March 2024. So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 1196 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your 3M Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 16.4% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for 3M Company shares which in turn could have impacted 3M Company's share price.

Valuing 3M Company stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of 3M Company's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
3M Company's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.9045. 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 3M Company's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
3M Company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$7.9 billion (£6.3 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a 3M Company's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.
Over the last 12 months, 3M Company's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$68.672 up to US$95.67. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while 3M Company's is 1.035. This would suggest that 3M Company's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

Dividend payout ratio: 65.04% of net profits
Recently 3M Company has paid out, on average, around 65.04% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 6.56% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), 3M Company shareholders could enjoy a 6.56% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In 3M Company's case, that would currently equate to about $6 per share.
3M Company'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.
3M Company's most recent dividend payout was on 11 March 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 14 February 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
