Valuing BSA stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of BSA's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
BSA's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 34x. In other words, BSA shares trade at around 34x 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.
BSA's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $8 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a BSA's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 100% of net profits
Recently BSA has paid out, on average, around 100% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.33% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), BSA shareholders could enjoy a 3.33% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In BSA's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.01 per share.
BSA'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 24 March 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, BSA's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.226 up to $0.375. 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 BSA's is 0.6622. This would suggest that BSA's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
