Devon Energy Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 15 November 2004. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Devon Energy Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Devon Energy Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Devon Energy Corporation's share price.

Valuing Devon Energy Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Devon Energy Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Devon Energy Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 9x. In other words, Devon Energy Corporation shares trade at around 9x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Devon Energy Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.3953. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Devon Energy Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Devon Energy Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$7.5 billion (£6 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Devon Energy Corporation's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.
Over the last 12 months, Devon Energy Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$40.2822 up to US$55.09. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Devon Energy Corporation's is 2.22. This would suggest that Devon Energy Corporation's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.

Dividend payout ratio: 42.46% of net profits
Recently Devon Energy Corporation has paid out, on average, around 42.46% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.64% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Devon Energy Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 4.64% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Devon Energy Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $2.87 per share.
While Devon Energy Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Devon Energy Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
