Is Mader Group under- or over-valued?

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

Mader Group 's P/E ratio

Mader Group '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, Mader Group shares trade at around 9x recent earnings.

That's relatively low compared to, say, the P/E ratio for the ASX over the 12 months to December 2019 (32.14). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Mader Group 's EBITDA

Mader Group 's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $32.7 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Mader Group 's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Mader Group share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 42.86% of net profits

Recently Mader Group has paid out, on average, around 42.86% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.19% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Mader Group shareholders could enjoy a 3.19% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Mader Group 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.03 per share.

While Mader Group 's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Mader Group may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 1 September 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
