Metrics Analysis

BLL has a trailing twelve month Price to Earnings (PE) ratio of 39 which places it above the histroical average of roughly 15. BLL is currently trading at a poor value due to investors paying more than what the stock is worth in relation to its earnings. BLL's trailing-12-month earnings per share (EPS) of 2.43 does not justify its share price in the market. Trailing PE ratios do not factor in the company's projected growth rate, thus, some firms will have high PE ratios caused by high growth recruiting more investors even if the underlying company has produced low earnings so far. BLL currently has a 12-month-forward-PE-to-Growth (PEG) ratio of 5.47. The market is currently overvaluing BLL in relation to its projected growth due to the PEG ratio being above the fair market value of 1. BLL's PEG comes from its forward price to earnings ratio being divided by its growth rate.
