# Zumiez Inc. (ZUMZ) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Textiles, Apparel & Luxury Goods. Price $18.03, market value $304 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 24.0×** (5-yr avg 21.4×, 3-yr avg 31.6×). Zumiez Inc. trades at 24.0× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 21.4×. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 12.3×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.01**. A PEG of 0.01 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 0.3×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.3×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.0×**. The shares trade at 1.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 4.2×**. Enterprise value is 4.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 12.1%** (5-yr avg 3.2%). Free cash flow equals 12.1% of the market value, above its five-year average of 3.2%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 4.2%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.2% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 36.1%**. Zumiez Inc. keeps 36.1% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 2.3%**. 2.3% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 1.4%**. 1.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 4.1%**. 4.1% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 8.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 8.7%.
- **Return on assets: 2.2%**. Each dollar of assets produces 2.2% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 4.5%** (3-yr -1.0%/yr, 5-yr -1.3%/yr). Revenue grew 4.5% over the last year, against -1.3% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 966.7%** (3-yr -10.3%/yr, 5-yr -23.6%/yr). Earnings per share rose 966.7%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.00**. Debt is 0.00 times equity: a conservative balance sheet.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: net cash**. Zumiez Inc. holds more cash than debt.
- **Current ratio: 2.01** (quick 2.01). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 2.01 times.
- **Altman Z-score: 3.12**. A Z-score of 3.12 places the company in the safe zone for bankruptcy risk.
- **Piotroski F-score: 8/9**. 8 of 9 fundamental checks pass: strong and improving financials.

## Dividends
- **Dividend: none**. Zumiez Inc. does not currently pay a dividend.

## Price and momentum
- **Total return (1 yr): -2.3%** (YTD -30.8%, 3-mo 3.7%). The shares are down 2.3% over twelve months including dividends.
- **From 52-week high: -43.1%** (19.5% above the low). Trading 43% below its 52-week high, deep in a drawdown.
- **200-day average: below**. The price sits below its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of a downtrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 46**. An RSI of 46 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 1.76** (volatility 53%). Beta of 1.76 against the S&P 500: the shares move much more than the market.
