Is Atlassian under- or over-valued?

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

Atlassian's PEG ratio

Atlassian's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 10.7085. 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 Atlassian's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Atlassian's EBITDA

Atlassian's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$50.6 million (£0.0 million).

Shorting Atlassian shares

There are currently 7.3 million Atlassian shares held short by investors – that's known as Atlassian's "short interest". This figure is 6.3% up from 6.9 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Atlassian shares can be evaluated.

Atlassian's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Atlassian's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Atlassian shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Atlassian shares traded daily (recently around 1.4 million). Atlassian's SIR currently stands at 5.31. In other words for every 100,000 Atlassian shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5310 shares are currently held short.

However Atlassian's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Atlassian shares, or, against the total number of tradable Atlassian shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Atlassian's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Atlassian shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0.0632% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Atlassian shares, roughly 63 shares are currently held short).

A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Atlassian.
