Is it a good time to buy Audinate Group stock?

The technical analysis gauge below displays real-time ratings for the timeframes you select. This is not a recommendation, however. It represents a technical analysis based on the most popular technical indicators: Moving Averages, Oscillators and Pivots. Finder might not concur and takes no responsibility.

Is Audinate Group under- or over-valued?

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

Audinate Group's P/E ratio

Audinate Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 2355x. In other words, Audinate Group shares trade at around 2355x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the P/E ratio for the ASX over the 12 months to December 2019 (32.14). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

Audinate Group's EBITDA

Audinate Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $2 million (£0.0 million).

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

Audinate Group share dividends

We're not expecting Audinate Group to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Audinate Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Audinate Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.51 up to $9.3. 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 Audinate Group's is 1.6131. This would suggest that Audinate Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
