Frequently asked questions
What is Lincoln Electric Holdings Inc's revenue?
Lincoln Electric Holdings Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $4.35B. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is LECO?
In its most recent fiscal year, LECO ran a gross margin of 36.30%, an operating margin of 16.90%, and a net margin of 12.30%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does LECO generate?
LECO produced $534.20M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is LECO's balance sheet healthy?
LECO holds $308.79M in cash and equivalents against $1.15B in long-term debt, on $1.47B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
