# Holley Inc. (HLLY) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Auto Components. Price $3.05, market value $370 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 33.9×** (5-yr avg 23.8×, 3-yr avg 28.1×). Holley Inc. trades at 33.9× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 23.8×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 7.9×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.04**. A PEG of 0.04 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 0.6×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.6×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 0.8×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 11.8%** (5-yr avg 6.5%). Free cash flow equals 11.8% of the market value, above its five-year average of 6.5%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 3.0%**. The inverse of the P/E: 3.0% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 43.0%**. Holley Inc. keeps 43.0% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 9.1%**. 9.1% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: 3.1%**. 3.1% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 4.3%**. 4.3% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 4.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 4.7%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: 0.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces 0.9% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 1.9%** (3-yr -3.8%/yr, 5-yr 4.0%/yr). Revenue grew 1.9% over the last year, against 4.0% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 180.0%** (3-yr 4.6%/yr, 5-yr -20.1%/yr). Earnings per share rose 180.0%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 1.16**. Debt is 1.16 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.61**. A Z-score of 1.61 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
