Valuing Sigma Healthcare stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Sigma Healthcare's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Sigma Healthcare's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 23x. In other words, Sigma Healthcare shares trade at around 23x 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.
Sigma Healthcare's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $10.9 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Sigma Healthcare's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
