Is Mineral Resources under- or over-valued?
Valuing Mineral Resources stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Mineral Resources's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Mineral Resources's P/E ratio
Mineral Resources's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 35x. In other words, Mineral Resources shares trade at around 35x 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.
Mineral Resources's EBITDA
Mineral Resources's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1.3 billion (£695 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Mineral Resources's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Mineral Resources share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 98.52% of net profits
Recently Mineral Resources has paid out, on average, around 98.52% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.35% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Mineral Resources shareholders could enjoy a 1.35% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Mineral Resources's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.9 per share.
Mineral Resources'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 29 February 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Mineral Resources share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Mineral Resources's shares have ranged in value from as little as $52.3625 up to $84.4319. 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 (AU average) beta is 1, while Mineral Resources's is 1.276. This would suggest that Mineral Resources's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
