Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Automobiles. Price $17.64, market value $2.3 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 17.3×**. Bob's Discount Furniture Inc. trades at 17.3× trailing earnings. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 16.7×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.41**. A PEG of 0.41 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.0×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.0×.
- **Price / book: 4.3×**. The shares trade at 4.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 14.6×**. Enterprise value is 14.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 1.4%**. Free cash flow equals 1.4% of the market value.
- **Earnings yield: 5.8%**. The inverse of the P/E: 5.8% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 46.8%**. Bob's Discount Furniture Inc. keeps 46.8% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 7.0%**. 7.0% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: 5.1%**. 5.1% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 74.3%**. A 74.3% return on equity is extremely high; check whether buybacks or debt have shrunk the equity base, which flatters the ratio.
- **Return on invested capital: 9.9%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 9.9%.
- **Return on assets: 6.0%**. Each dollar of assets produces 6.0% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 16.8%** (3-yr 4.0%/yr). Revenue grew 16.8% over the last year.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 41.0%** (3-yr 64.9%/yr). Earnings per share rose 41.0%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 424.0%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 424.0% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 7.19**. Debt is 7.19 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 4.8×**. It would take 4.8 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Current ratio: 0.87** (quick 0.22). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.56**. A Z-score of 2.56 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
- **Piotroski F-score: 7/9**. 7 of 9 fundamental checks pass: strong and improving financials.

## Dividends
- **Dividend yield: 14.91%** ($2.45 per share, trailing). Bob's Discount Furniture Inc. yields 14.91%, high enough to check carefully: yields this high often precede a cut.
- **Payout ratio: 350%**. The dividend exceeds earnings (350% payout), which is rarely sustainable outside REITs and one-off years.

## Price and momentum
- **From 52-week high: -24.9%** (81.1% above the low). Trading 25% below its 52-week high.
- **RSI (14-day): 54**. An RSI of 54 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 1.84** (volatility 77%). Beta of 1.84 against the S&P 500: the shares move much more than the market.
