Levi Strauss is a brand I understand: it sells jeans and casual wear under Levi's and other labels, and that name has real staying power with customers. Still, apparel is competitive and cyclical, so I demand a margin of safety. The filed figures are mixed. In fiscal Q3 2026, the quarter ended 2026-08-30, revenue was $1.6B and net income $168.6M, or $0.43 per diluted share. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-05-31, revenue was $1.6B but net income was only $87.3M, or $0.22 per diluted share. For FY2025, ended 2025-11-30, revenue was $6.3B and net income $578.1M, or $1.45 per diluted share, versus FY2024 revenue of $6.0B, net income $210.6M and EPS $0.52. That profit jump is impressive, but FairStock's Lynch category is SLOW GROWER because profit rose only 1.1% a year and revenue 2.2% a year over four years. At the $19.48 close on 2026-10-13, FairStock calculates a P/E of 13.91, P/B of 3.30, FCF yield of 7.4%, dividend yield 3.23%, EV/EBITDA 9.27 and a Graham Number of $13.63, leaving the price 42.92% above that conservative value. D/E is 1.01, Altman Z is 1.95, Piotroski 6/9 and ROCE 7.17%, so the balance sheet and returns are not fortress-like. I see a decent business at a fair-to-full price, not an obvious bargain; I would want steadier growth and less leverage before calling it cheap.

In plain English: Levi Strauss makes jeans and other clothes under the Levi's brand and sells them around the world. The company makes good cash and has a well-known name, but sales have grown slowly over the last few years and it carries a fair amount of debt. At $19.48, the stock looks more fairly priced than a clear bargain, because it trades above a conservative value estimate.
