Is National Storage REIT under- or over-valued?
Valuing National Storage REIT stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of National Storage REIT'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 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.

National Storage REIT share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 46.25% of net profits
Recently National Storage REIT has paid out, on average, around 46.25% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.89% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), National Storage REIT shareholders could enjoy a 3.89% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In National Storage REIT's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.07 per share.
While National Storage REIT's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that National Storage REIT 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 30 December 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
National Storage REIT share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, National Storage REIT's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.1543 up to $2.3375. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
