Is Corum Group under- or over-valued?

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

Corum Group's P/E ratio

Corum 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 101x. In other words, Corum Group shares trade at around 101x 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.

Corum Group's EBITDA

Corum Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $937,000 (£528,104).

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

Have Corum Group's shares ever split?

Corum Group's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 30 October 2005. So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Corum Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Corum Group shares which in turn could have impacted Corum Group's share price.
