Is it a good time to buy Briscoe Group stock?

Technical Analysis of Briscoe Group Limited by TradingView

Is Briscoe Group under- or over-valued?

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

Briscoe Group's P/E ratio

Briscoe 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 14x. In other words, Briscoe Group shares trade at around 14x 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.

Briscoe Group share dividends

31%

Dividend payout ratio: 30.67% of net profits

Recently Briscoe Group has paid out, on average, around 30.67% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.48% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Briscoe Group shareholders could enjoy a 4.48% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Briscoe Group's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.17 per share.

While Briscoe Group's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Briscoe Group 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 20 September 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").

Briscoe Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Briscoe Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.7 up to $3.97. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

BGP.AU volatility(beta: 0.56)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Briscoe Group's is 0.562. This would suggest that Briscoe Group's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
