Valuing Qantas stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Qantas's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Qantas's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 6x. In other words, Qantas shares trade at around 6x 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.
Qantas's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.52. 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 Qantas's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Qantas's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $3.8 billion (£2 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Qantas's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

TTM: trailing 12 months
We're not expecting Qantas to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Qantas's shares were split on a 0.939:1 basis on 26 October 2015. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 0.939 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Qantas shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 6.5% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Qantas shares which in turn could have impacted Qantas's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Qantas's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.67 up to $6.83. 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 Qantas's is 1.101. This would suggest that Qantas'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).
