Author: Benzinga Insights | April 30, 2021 10:49am

What Defines a Value Stock?

A value stock is traditionally defined in terms of how investors in the marketplace are valuing that company's future growth prospects. Low P/E multiples are good base indicators that the company is undervalued and can most likely be labelled as a value stock.

  2. Seneca Foods (NASDAQ:SENEB) - P/E: 3.29
  3. Perdoceo Education (NASDAQ:PRDO) - P/E: 6.92
  4. Adtalem Glb Education (NYSE:ATGE) - P/E: 6.97
  5. United Natural Foods (NYSE:UNFI) - P/E: 9.96

Lincoln Educational Servs has reported Q4 earnings per share at 0.31, which has increased by 287.5% compared to Q3, which was 0.08. Lincoln Educational Servs does not have a dividend yield, which investors should be aware of when considering holding onto such a stock.

Seneca Foods has reported Q3 earnings per share at 7.9, which has increased by 301.02% compared to Q2, which was 1.97. Seneca Foods does not have a dividend yield, which investors should be aware of when considering holding onto such a stock.
