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 Ingenia Communities under- or over-valued?

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

Ingenia Communities's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 41x. In other words, Ingenia Communities shares trade at around 41x 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.

Ingenia Communities share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 83.33% of net profits

Recently Ingenia Communities has paid out, on average, around 83.33% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.86% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Ingenia Communities shareholders could enjoy a 1.86% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Ingenia Communities's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.09 per share.

Ingenia Communities'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 21 August 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").

However, indirectly, the new 500% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Ingenia Communities shares which in turn could have impacted Ingenia Communities's share price.
