AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

Lucky Strike runs bowling and entertainment venues, and at $5.16 on 2026-10-13 it carries a $717.6M market value. In fiscal 2026, the year ended 2026-06-28, it reported about $1.2B of revenue but a net loss of $35.8M and diluted EPS of -$0.33. That follows a $10.0M loss in fiscal 2025 and an $83.6M loss in fiscal 2024, so this is not a steady compounder; it fits the Lynch category TURNAROUND—loss in the latest year after earlier profits. The quarters are uneven: fiscal Q3 2026, the quarter ended 2026-03-29, earned $16.9M, or $0.10 per diluted share, but fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2025-12-28, lost $12.7M and fiscal Q1 2026, the quarter ended 2025-09-28, lost $13.8M. Bowling alleys and water parks can have local scale, but I see no durable moat in these figures; the business is consuming cash. Financial health is poor. Trailing free cash flow was -$261.2M, a FairStock-calculated FCF yield of -36.4%. FairStock-calculated ROCE was 3.05%, Piotroski 3/9, Altman Z-Score 0.05, and the FairStock Score 22/100. The 4.65% dividend yield is not supported by reported earnings. On valuation, the FairStock-calculated P/E is negative at -15.64, P/B is N/A, and EV/EBITDA is 11.82. A negative P/E cannot anchor value. At $5.16, near the low end of the $4.87–$9.77 52-week range, the price may look statistically cheap, but without positive free cash flow and consistent profits, cheapness is not value—it is hope.

In plain English: Lucky Strike runs bowling and entertainment venues in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The business looks weak right now: it reported a loss in its latest fiscal year and used more cash than it generated. With no current profit to support the price, the shares look expensive based on today’s numbers and would need a real turnaround to justify them.
