Valuing Adelaide Brighton stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Adelaide Brighton's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Adelaide Brighton's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 18x. In other words, Adelaide Brighton shares trade at around 18x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the P/E ratio for the ASX over the 12 months to December 2019 (32.14). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Adelaide Brighton's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 7.15. 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 Adelaide Brighton's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 67.11% of net profits
Recently Adelaide Brighton has paid out, on average, around 67.11% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.37% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Adelaide Brighton shareholders could enjoy a 3.37% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Adelaide Brighton's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.128 per share.
Adelaide Brighton'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.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 21 September 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
