Valuing Iress stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Iress's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Iress's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 108x. In other words, Iress shares trade at around 108x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the P/E ratio for the ASX over the 12 months to December 2019 (32.14). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Iress's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $62.3 million (£0.0 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Iress's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

TTM: trailing 12 months
We're not expecting Iress to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Iress's shares were split on a 731:713 basis on 8 August 2013. So if you had owned 713 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 731 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Iress shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 2.5% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Iress shares which in turn could have impacted Iress's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Iress's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.92 up to $11.06. 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 Iress's is 1.159. This would suggest that Iress'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).
