What matters now

  • The price is below even our cautious bear case ($12.42). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($12.42 to $32.90). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid quality (64/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.

Analysis

Leggett & Platt Incorporated (LEG) currently trades at $9.20, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $19.67, implying the stock looks roughly 53.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $29.05 per share, and 19 of the 24 models we run sit above the $9.20 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $2.00, and 5 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Leggett & Platt Incorporated generated revenue of $4.0B at a net margin of 5.7%. Revenue declined 10.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 25.2%. Net debt stands at $1.1B. Fundamentals as of Sep 3, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $12.42 (bear case) to $32.90 (bull case); at $9.20, the current price sits below that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 29% below its 52-week high and 19% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at −9% fair-value upside, at 114%, LEG screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $0.9542 per share, which is 4.9 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
