Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Levi Strauss & Co. sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

On valuation, the picture is attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 14.9×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 2% a year, against analyst forecasts of 9%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is adequate. The company scores 16/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

No flags apply to this company at this time: accounts, balance sheet, and cash quality all pass. A clean bill of health is meaningful, not just the absence of a warning. This analysis describes numbers; it is not investment advice.
