B
PEG 1.39 — acceptable premium for growth · PEG derived: P/E ÷ forward 1-year analyst EPS growth, because this name has no vendor-supplied PEG. Same earnings-growth basis as the reported figure on other rows.

Forward price target — the 1-year figure is the analyst consensus where the stock is covered; the 5- and 10-year figures compound our earnings estimate from there. The DCF below is a separate cross-check on intrinsic value (what it's worth today), not another target.

Model-generatedGenerated by the Bull Rankings model from this company's reported fundamentals, and checked against the figures shown above.

Why now
Apparel Manufacturing · market cap $8.3b. 16% off the 52-week high of $25.70. 15 sell-side analysts publish a mean 1-yr target of $28.27 (implying +32% upside).
Moat
ROE 28% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which.
Risk
Mature compounder — the risk is paying up for quality at a moment when growth is decelerating. Watch for sequential revenue + margin trends; the inflection from "compounder" to "ex-compounder" is hard to spot until the multiple already started compressing.
Horizon
1-3 yr $28.27 (15-analyst consensus) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $41.39 at ~14% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $61.39 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

Forward EPS estimate$1.71

Over the last 90 days, what analysts expect LEVI to earn is drifting higher (+1.6%). The estimate is derived from price and forward P/E captured at the same instant, so a moving share price does not move this number — only a changed forecast does.

A rising estimate means expectations are improving, not that the price has failed to keep up — and estimates get cut as readily as they get raised. It is not part of the Bull Rankings score. Biggest movers across the market →

Levi Strauss & Co. (LEVI): score, valuation & FAQ

Levi Strauss & Co. (LEVI) is a Apparel Manufacturing company that scores 67 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a solid, above-average reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are P/E (B+). On valuation, LEVI sits about 7% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 9% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.

Is LEVI a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores LEVI 67 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a solid, above-average reading. That is driven by P/E (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Levi Strauss & Co.'s fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

Why does LEVI score 67 on Bull Rankings?

The quality-growth score blends three pillars — quality (returns on capital, margins, leverage, earnings quality), growth (revenue and earnings expansion), and value (valuation versus sector peers). LEVI earns its highest marks on P/E (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is LEVI overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $21.49, LEVI sits about 7% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 9% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 15.3x P/E (graded B+). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.

What are the main risks of investing in LEVI?

Mature compounder — the risk is paying up for quality at a moment when growth is decelerating. Watch for sequential revenue + margin trends; the inflection from "compounder" to "ex-compounder" is hard to spot until the multiple already started compressing.
