Is Ambertech under- or over-valued?

Valuing Ambertech stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Ambertech's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

Ambertech's P/E ratio

Ambertech's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 7x. In other words, Ambertech shares trade at around 7x 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.

Ambertech's EBITDA

Ambertech's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1.6 million.

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

Ambertech share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 15% of net profits

Recently Ambertech has paid out, on average, around 15% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.5% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Ambertech shareholders could enjoy a 2.5% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Ambertech's case, that would currently equate to about A$N/A per share.

While Ambertech's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Ambertech is investing more in its future growth.

The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 29 September 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").

Ambertech share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Ambertech's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.032 up to $0.13. 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 (AU average) beta is 1, while Ambertech's is 1.6225. This would suggest that Ambertech's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
