Is LAKE overvalued in 2026?

Lakeland Industries Inc (LAKE) currently trades at $10.49 per share with a market capitalization of $92,761,000.00. Based on our multi-factor framework, the stock appears richly valued with a Smart Value Score of 45/100. This score blends growth quality, financial health, and price attractiveness into a single institutional-grade read.

LAKE currently has no meaningful P/E ratio, which typically signals that the company is unprofitable, near breakeven, or emerging from a loss-making period. With a P/S ratio of 0.5x, the market is valuing the company primarily on its revenue rather than its earnings.

Looking at its own history, LAKE is currently trading cheaper than 100% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 0th percentile of its historical range, a level that has historically coincided with attractive entry points.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates LAKE's intrinsic value at $16.26 per share, against the current market price of $10.49. This implies a margin of safety of +38.93%. A meaningful cushion exists against model error, making this a reasonable risk-adjusted entry.

Financial quality is a concern. The Piotroski F-Score of 2/9 flags weakening fundamentals that deserve closer scrutiny before the valuation case can be fully trusted.

Bottom line: LAKE appears richly valued on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 45/100. At current levels the risk/reward is skewed against the buyer. A materially lower price or significant operational improvement would be needed to change the picture.

Frequently asked questions

Is LAKE overvalued?

LAKE scores 45/100 on our Smart Value Score (Grade C), a weak overall profile. The DCF also shows a positive margin of safety, so price and fundamentals line up reasonably well.

What is LAKE's fair value?

Our DCF model estimates LAKE's intrinsic value at $16.26 per share, versus the current price of $10.49, a margin of safety of +38.93%. Fair value is the present value of the cash flows we project the business to produce, so a price below it means the market is pricing the stock below that conservative estimate.

What P/E ratio does LAKE trade at?

LAKE does not have a meaningful P/E right now, usually a sign of unprofitability or an earnings transition. For unprofitable growth names, price-to-sales is the more useful gauge.

Is LAKE a buy based on valuation?

Our Smart Value rating for LAKE is Sell, from a Smart Value Score of 45/100 that blends growth, quality, and valuation. The profile skews cautious, and a better price or clearer operating improvement would strengthen the case. This is research to inform your decision, not personalized financial advice.

How does LAKE's valuation compare to its history?

On P/E, LAKE sits in the 0th percentile of its own 5Y range, historically cheap relative to where it has traded. A low percentile means today's multiple is near the bottom of its historical band.

What is LAKE's Smart Value Score?
