Valuing Tower stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Tower 's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Tower 's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 12x. In other words, Tower shares trade at around 12x 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.

TTM: trailing 12 months
We're not expecting Tower to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Tower 's shares were split on a 10:13 basis on 2 April 2013. So if you had owned 13 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 10 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Tower shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 30% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Tower shares which in turn could have impacted Tower 's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Tower 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.5 up to $0.71. 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 Tower 's is 0.517. This would suggest that Tower 's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
