It represents a technical analysis based on the most popular technical indicators: Moving Averages, Oscillators and Pivots. Finder might not concur and takes no responsibility.

Is Coventry Group under- or over-valued?

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

Coventry Group 's P/E ratio

Coventry 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 132x. In other words, Coventry Group shares trade at around 132x 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.

Coventry Group 's EBITDA

Coventry Group 's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $8.7 million.

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

Coventry Group share dividends

Coventry Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Coventry Group 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.59 up to $1.515. 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 Coventry Group 's is 1.1048. This would suggest that Coventry Group '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).
