Valuing Beach Energy stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Beach Energy's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Beach Energy's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 8x. In other words, Beach Energy shares trade at around 8x 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.
Beach Energy's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $942.2 million (£494 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Beach Energy's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 44.44% of net profits
Recently Beach Energy has paid out, on average, around 44.44% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.69% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Beach Energy shareholders could enjoy a 2.69% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Beach Energy's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.04 per share.
While Beach Energy's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Beach Energy may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 4 September 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Beach Energy's shares were split on a 1:7 basis on 27 May 2002. So if you had owned 7 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Beach Energy shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 600% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Beach Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Beach Energy's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Beach Energy's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.2688 up to $1.7187. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Beach Energy's is 1.453. This would suggest that Beach Energy's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
