Valuing New Hope Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of New Hope Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
New Hope Corporation'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, New Hope Corporation 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.
New Hope Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1.2 billion (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a New Hope Corporation's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 98.95% of net profits
Recently New Hope Corporation has paid out, on average, around 98.95% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 7.3% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), New Hope Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 7.3% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In New Hope Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.38 per share.
New Hope Corporation'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 14 April 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
New Hope Corporation's shares were split on a 1.0232:1 basis on 20 October 2008. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 1.0232 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your New Hope Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 2.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for New Hope Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted New Hope Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, New Hope Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.0528 up to $5.9997. 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 New Hope Corporation's is 0.229. This would suggest that New Hope Corporation's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
