Is it a good time to buy Prologis stock?

Is Prologis under- or over-valued?
Valuing Prologis stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Prologis's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Prologis's P/E ratio
Prologis's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 36x. In other words, Prologis shares trade at around 36x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Prologis's PEG ratio
Prologis's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.191. 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 Prologis's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Prologis's EBITDA
Prologis's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$5.8 billion (£4.6 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Prologis's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
Prologis share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Prologis's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$96.64 up to US$133.7712. 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 Prologis's is 1.031. This would suggest that Prologis's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

Prologis share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 104.94% of net profits
Recently Prologis has paid out, on average, around 104.94% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.11% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Prologis shareholders could enjoy a 3.11% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Prologis's case, that would currently equate to about $3.4 per share.
Prologis'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.
Prologis's most recent dividend payout was on 29 September 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 15 September 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
