Procter & Gamble Company's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 20 June 2004. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Procter & Gamble Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Procter & Gamble Company shares which in turn could have impacted Procter & Gamble Company's share price.

Valuing Procter & Gamble Company stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Procter & Gamble Company's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Procter & Gamble Company's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 26x. In other words, Procter & Gamble Company shares trade at around 26x recent earnings.
That's comparable to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29).
Procter & Gamble Company's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 3.2845. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Procter & Gamble Company's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Procter & Gamble Company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$23.7 billion (£19 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Procter & Gamble Company's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.
Over the last 12 months, Procter & Gamble Company's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$139.2485 up to US$163.14. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Procter & Gamble Company's is 0.429. This would suggest that Procter & Gamble Company's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).

Dividend payout ratio: 59.73% of net profits
Recently Procter & Gamble Company has paid out, on average, around 59.73% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.58% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Procter & Gamble Company shareholders could enjoy a 2.58% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Procter & Gamble Company's case, that would currently equate to about $3.735 per share.
Procter & Gamble Company'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.
Procter & Gamble Company's most recent dividend payout was on 14 May 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 April 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
