## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 142.0×** (5-yr avg 70.6×, 3-yr avg 70.6×). Latham Group Inc. trades at 142.0× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 70.6×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Industrials median in the September 2026 study was 25.7×. Forward P/E is 25.3×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.16**. A PEG of 0.16 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.4×.
- **Price / book: 2.1×**. The shares trade at 2.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 13.6×**. Enterprise value is 13.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.9%** (5-yr avg 7.3%). Free cash flow equals 5.9% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 7.3%. Above 5% is generally attractive.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 33.4%**. Latham Group Inc. keeps 33.4% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.

- **Net margin: 2.0%**. 2.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 2.7%**. 2.7% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 3.4%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 3.4%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 160.0%** (5-yr -10.9%/yr). Earnings per share rose 160.0%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

- **Current ratio: 2.77** (quick 2.77). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 2.77 times.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.88**. A Z-score of 2.88 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
