Lifetime Brands, Inc. (LCUT) has a negative trailing P/E of -6.1, meaning the company is currently unprofitable on a trailing twelve-month (TTM) basis. The forward P/E of 14.4 based on analyst estimates suggests a return to profitability is expected. Trailing earnings yield is -16.33%, forward earnings yield 6.95%.
Criteria proven by this page:
- VALUE (10/100, Fail) — negative P/E indicates the company is currently operating at a loss — DCF and P/E-based valuation models cannot produce meaningful results for unprofitable companies (P/E -6.1); trailing earnings yield is below the 10-year Treasury yield (~4.3%), meaning bonds offer a better return (EY -16.33%); analyst consensus target implies downside from the current price ($4.25, 42.8%).
- Forward P/E 14.4 — analysts expect a return to profitability with estimated EPS of $0.52 for FY2026.
- Trailing Earnings Yield -16.33% — negative yield confirms the company is currently unprofitable. Investors are paying for a turnaround rather than current earnings. Forward yield improves to 6.95% as earnings recover.
- Analyst consensus target $4.25 (-42.8% downside) — analysts see meaningful downside risk at the current price level.
Overall SharesGrow Score: 24/100 with 0/7 criteria passed.
