INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$17.70
Trading above historical range
How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 13.1x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: LEVI is currently trading at $21.36, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $19.38 to $20.52. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 12.8) is in line with its historical norms (13.1). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.9% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.
Technical Outlook: Technically, LEVI is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $21.48. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: LEVI scores 30/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge. Note this measures entry quality, not trend direction — a low score can mean the chart is extended after a strong run (don't chase) or still falling without stabilization; better entries typically come after a pullback toward the 20-day average. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $26.79 (+25.4%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
