Could you explain the diff. between equity per share, earnings per share&price/earnings ratio.?


i know how all of these are calculated the problem is what do they actually mean? if the number is big is it good or bad (that sort of thing) what does it say about the state of the company. thats what i am asking.hope im specific. heres an example
Kenlaw Group Investment Company has the following:
Stock proce: $3942
Equity per Share: $1593
Earning per share: $364.41
P/E ration: 10.68
Dividend yield: 0.11%
Total Return: 20.28%

What is all this saying about the company? Please do not get agitated, i'm really interested in these things. this question is a buildup to another one.please help.

Earnings per share is the earnings of a particular year divided by amount of shares. Equity per share is the net equity (What the balance sheet says the company is worth) divided by the amount of shares. Price earnings ratio is price of the shares divided by the earnings per share.
One real look at this company is the stock price divided by the equity per share. This company is selling for almost 2 1/2 times the value of the stock in equity terms.
