Is Bendigo and Adelaide Bank under- or over-valued?
Valuing Bendigo and Adelaide Bank stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's P/E ratio
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 23x. In other words, Bendigo and Adelaide Bank shares trade at around 23x 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.

Bendigo and Adelaide Bank share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 9.57% of net profits
Recently Bendigo and Adelaide Bank has paid out, on average, around 9.57% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.56% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Bendigo and Adelaide Bank shareholders could enjoy a 5.56% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.28 per share.
While Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Bendigo and Adelaide Bank is investing more in its future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's shares ever split?
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's shares were split on 11 August 2009.
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's shares have ranged in value from as little as $5.7764 up to $11.6325. 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 Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's is 1.0354. This would suggest that Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
