Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
Ohio Valley Banc Corp. trades at $44.19, which is 18% above the $36.36 our fair value estimate puts on the business. On that measure it screens as expensive, which is not the same as saying it will fall.
Our moat model scores it 28 out of 100, which is little in the way of a moat. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
It changes hands at 13.2 times earnings. Be careful reading that in isolation: for a cyclical business a low P/E arrives at the top of the cycle, when profits are peaking and about to fall, which is exactly when the shares look cheapest and are not.

Common questions
Is Ohio Valley Banc Corp. (OVBC) undervalued?
Against our fair value estimate of $36.36, OVBC at $44.19 is 18% above fair value. That is one model's answer, not a recommendation. It is built from normalized earning power with growth capped deliberately low, which understates companies whose value is mostly future growth.
Which funds own OVBC?
6 of the institutions we track reported a position in OVBC in their most recent SEC 13F filing. A 13F is filed up to 45 days after quarter end, so it tells you what a fund held then, not what it holds now.
What is OVBC's P/E ratio?
OVBC trades at 13.2 times earnings. A low P/E is not automatically cheap: on a cyclical company it is usually a warning that earnings are at a peak.
Does Ohio Valley Banc Corp. (OVBC) pay a dividend?
Yes. Ohio Valley Banc Corp. yields 2.29% at the current share price. It has paid $0.960 per share over the trailing twelve months. It has paid a dividend in each of the last 31 complete calendar years. A dividend is declared by the board and can be cut at any time; a yield is a fact about the current price, not a promise.
