Is OM Holdings under- or over-valued?

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

OM Holdings 's P/E ratio

OM Holdings 's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 11x. In other words, OM Holdings shares trade at around 11x 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.

OM Holdings 's EBITDA

OM Holdings 's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $72.7 million.

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

OM Holdings share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 50% of net profits

Recently OM Holdings has paid out, on average, around 50% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.13% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), OM Holdings shareholders could enjoy a 3.13% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In OM Holdings 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.01 per share.

OM Holdings '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 6 May 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have OM Holdings 's shares ever split?

OM Holdings 's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 2 June 2008. 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 OM Holdings shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for OM Holdings shares which in turn could have impacted OM Holdings 's share price.

OM Holdings share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, OM Holdings 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.24 up to $0.545. 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 (AU average) beta is 1, while OM Holdings 's is 1.5135. This would suggest that OM Holdings 's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
