The Knot Inc. is a NASDAQ listed security that has been trading in a range between $15.30 and $32.18 over the past year. With 31,280,280 shares outstanding, a recent price of $17.46 gives a total market capitalization of $541,148,820. While there are certainly larger companies, The Knot Inc. has definitely earned its place in the pack. Last year, The Knot Inc. created $0.76 in earnings for every share outstanding.
The Knot Inc. is currently priced by the market at 23.10 times last year’s earnings. Many trading multiples around the world are quite attractive these days, but don’t be fooled. A Price to Earnings ratio of 0 simply means that the security didn’t make any money last year.
With a share price under $50 a share and earnings per share below $1 a share, The Knot Inc. could be an interesting value proposition. Consistent earnings are the key to high valuations and this security is well on its way.
