Is it worth buying Marathon Digital stock?

Valuing Marathon Digital stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Marathon Digital's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

Marathon Digital's P/E ratio

Marathon Digital's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 4x. In other words, Marathon Digital shares trade at around 4x recent earnings.

That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.

Marathon Digital's EBITDA

Marathon Digital's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is US$1.1 billion (£0.0 million).

The EBITDA is a measure of a Marathon Digital's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Marathon Digital share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Marathon Digital's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$9.71 up to US$28.07. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Marathon Digital's is 5.407. This would suggest that Marathon Digital's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
