Is it a good time to buy Pengana International Equities stock?

The technical analysis gauge below displays real-time ratings for the timeframes you select. This is not a recommendation, however. It represents a technical analysis based on the most popular technical indicators: Moving Averages, Oscillators and Pivots. Finder might not concur and takes no responsibility.

Is Pengana International Equities under- or over-valued?

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

Pengana International Equities 's P/E ratio

Pengana International Equities 's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Pengana International Equities shares trade at around 10x 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.

Pengana International Equities share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 56.82% of net profits

Recently Pengana International Equities has paid out, on average, around 56.82% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.3% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Pengana International Equities shareholders could enjoy a 5.3% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Pengana International Equities 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.05 per share.

Pengana International Equities '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 September 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").

Pengana International Equities share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Pengana International Equities 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.0035 up to $1.465. 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 Pengana International Equities 's is 0.4448. This would suggest that Pengana International Equities 's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
