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

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

We're not expecting Koss Corporation to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Koss Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 1 December 2009. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Koss Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Koss Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Koss Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Koss Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$7.6301 up to US$127.45. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Koss Corporation's is -2.4055. This would suggest that Koss Corporation's shares have been inversely-correlated to the average (for this exchange) – so when the broader market trended up or down, Koss Corporation has bucked the trend.
