It puts the valuation in relation to growth — a PEG below 2 suggests you are not overpaying for the company's future growth.The share price relative to the company's book value (assets minus liabilities) per share. Below 3 means the market price is still anchored to the company's actual net assets.Enterprise value (market cap plus net debt) divided by EBITDA. A debt-aware valuation multiple that makes companies with different financing comparable — below 15 is generally considered fair.

It measures how much the company relies on borrowed money — below 1.0 means the business is financed more by its owners than by lenders.Free cash flow relative to the share price. Positive means the business generates more cash than it spends — real money available for dividends, buybacks or reinvestment.Annual dividends per share divided by the share price — the cash return you receive just for holding the stock.
