Valuing Lifestyle Communities stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Lifestyle Communities 's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Lifestyle Communities 's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 16x. In other words, Lifestyle Communities shares trade at around 16x 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.
Lifestyle Communities 's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $33 million (£0.0 million).

Dividend payout ratio: 15.62% of net profits
Recently Lifestyle Communities has paid out, on average, around 15.62% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.96% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Lifestyle Communities shareholders could enjoy a 0.96% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Lifestyle Communities 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.115 per share.
While Lifestyle Communities 's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Lifestyle Communities is investing more in its future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 11 March 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Lifestyle Communities 's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 1 April 2013. So if you had owned 10 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Lifestyle Communities shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Lifestyle Communities shares which in turn could have impacted Lifestyle Communities 's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Lifestyle Communities 's shares have ranged in value from as little as $11.91 up to $19.2033. 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 Lifestyle Communities 's is 1.156. This would suggest that Lifestyle Communities '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).
