LZBLa-Z-Boy Incorporated
Is the price fair?
Undemanding: modest expectations priced in and cheap vs its sector.
Priced for a decline (~−1% a year). Little growth is priced in even as revenue fell 2% a year over three years, potential value, or a value trap.
In its normal range: P/E 15.1 vs a 14.5 median over 41 quarters (+4% vs median).
Sector median 15.0× across 156 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
Unless marked, from derived, as of Jul 25, 2026.
