ETRN has a trailing twelve month Price to Earnings (PE) ratio of -1.8. The historical average of roughly 15 shows a good value for ETRN stock as investors are paying lower share prices relative to the company's earnings. ETRN's low trailing PE ratio shows that the firm has been trading below its fair market value recently. Its trailing 12-month earnings per share (EPS) of -4.54 more than justifies the stock's current price. However, trailing PE ratios do not factor in the company's projected growth rate, resulting in many newer firms having high PE ratios due to high growth potential enticing investors despite inadequate earnings.
ETRN currently has a 12-month-forward-PE-to-Growth (PEG) ratio of 5.57. The market is currently overvaluing ETRN in relation to its projected growth due to the PEG ratio being above the fair market value of 1. ETRN's PEG comes from its forward price to earnings ratio being divided by its growth rate. Because PEG ratios include more fundamentals of a company's overall health with additional focus on the future, they are one of the most used valuation metrics by analysts.
