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.

Platinum Asset Management share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 79.31% of net profits
Recently Platinum Asset Management has paid out, on average, around 79.31% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.01% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Platinum Asset Management shareholders could enjoy a 5.01% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Platinum Asset Management's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.23 per share.
Platinum Asset Management'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 1 March 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Platinum Asset Management share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Platinum Asset Management's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.9442 up to $5.1. 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 Platinum Asset Management's is 1.4494. This would suggest that Platinum Asset Management's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
