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.

Advanced Share Registry share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 112.5% of net profits

Recently Advanced Share Registry has paid out, on average, around 112.5% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.03% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Advanced Share Registry shareholders could enjoy a 5.03% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Advanced Share Registry's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.045 per share.

Advanced Share Registry'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 2 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Advanced Share Registry's is 0.4202. This would suggest that Advanced Share Registry's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
