Is Cronos Australia under- or over-valued?
Valuing Cronos Australia stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Cronos Australia's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Cronos Australia's P/E ratio
Cronos Australia's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 54x. In other words, Cronos Australia shares trade at around 54x 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.

Cronos Australia's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $10.1 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Cronos Australia's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Cronos Australia share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 100% of net profits
Recently Cronos Australia has paid out, on average, around 100% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.85% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Cronos Australia shareholders could enjoy a 1.85% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Cronos Australia's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.01 per share.
Cronos Australia'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 15 September 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Cronos Australia share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Cronos Australia's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.35 up to $0.395. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Cronos Australia's is 0.0683. This would suggest that Cronos Australia's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
