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

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Auckland Airport is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 5.22/100
Auckland Airport's environmental score of 5.22 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Auckland Airport is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

Dividend payout ratio: 74.71% of net profits
Recently Auckland Airport has paid out, on average, around 74.71% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.33% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Auckland Airport shareholders could enjoy a 4.33% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Auckland Airport's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.21 per share.
Auckland Airport'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 19 March 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Auckland Airport's shares were split on a 9:10 basis on 1 April 2014. So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 9 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Auckland Airport shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 11.1% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Auckland Airport shares which in turn could have impacted Auckland Airport's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Auckland Airport's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.17 up to $8.5093. 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 Auckland Airport's is 0.9351. This would suggest that Auckland Airport's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
