Is Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation under- or over-valued?
Valuing Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's P/E ratio
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare 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 52x. In other words, Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation shares trade at around 52x 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.
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's PEG ratio
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.4677. 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 Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare 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.
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's EBITDA

Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 79.61% of net profits
Recently Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation has paid out, on average, around 79.61% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.53% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 1.53% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.41 per share.
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation'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 5 December 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's shares ever split?
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's shares were split on a 5:1 basis on 27 September 2004. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 80% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's share price.
Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Fisher-and-Paykel Healthcare Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $18.426 up to $25.6155. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
