Valuing Nickel Mines stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Nickel Mines 's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Nickel Mines 's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 21x. In other words, Nickel Mines shares trade at around 21x 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.
Nickel Mines 's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $372.1 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Nickel Mines 's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 107.22% of net profits
Recently Nickel Mines has paid out, on average, around 107.22% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.95% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Nickel Mines shareholders could enjoy a 5.95% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Nickel Mines 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.034 per share.
Nickel Mines '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.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 2 September 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Nickel Mines 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.5227 up to $1.085. 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 (AU average) beta is 1, while Nickel Mines 's is 0.945. This would suggest that Nickel Mines 's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
