Is Stockland under- or over-valued?
Valuing Stockland stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Stockland's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Stockland's P/E ratio
Stockland's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 41x. In other words, Stockland shares trade at around 41x 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.
Stockland's EBITDA
Stockland's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $701 million (£363 million).
The EBITDA is a measure of a Stockland's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure stock profitability.

N/AStockland's environmental, social and governance track record
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Stockland.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Stockland is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Stockland's environmental score
Environmental score: 4.02/100

Stockland's social score
Social score: 3.83/100
Stockland's social score of 3.83 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Stockland is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

Stockland share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 193.7% of net profits
Recently Stockland has paid out, on average, around 193.7% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 6.28% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Stockland shareholders could enjoy a 6.28% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Stockland's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.246 per share.
Stockland'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 26 June 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Stockland's shares ever split?
Stockland's shares were split on a 1.0586:1 basis on 14 May 2009. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 1.0586 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Stockland shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 5.5% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Stockland shares which in turn could have impacted Stockland's share price.
Stockland share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Stockland's shares have ranged in value from as little as $3.2984 up to $5.46. 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 Stockland's is 1.343. This would suggest that Stockland's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
