Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Lifetime Brands Inc has an operating margin of -1.5%, meaning the company retains $-1 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 19/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is down from 4.0% the prior year.

Growth

Lifetime Brands Inc's revenue declined 5.1% year-over-year, from $683.0M to $647.9M. This contraction results in a growth score of 25/100.

Leverage

Lifetime Brands Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 0.67, meaning only $0.67 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 88/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Cash Flow

Lifetime Brands Inc's free cash flow margin of 0.5% results in a low score of 26/100. Capital expenditures of $4.4M absorb a large share of operating cash flow.

Earnings Quality Mixed

-0.28x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Lifetime Brands Inc generates $-0.28 in operating cash flow ($7.6M OCF vs -$26.9M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-0.5x

Lifetime Brands Inc earns $-0.5 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$9.4M vs $20.0M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
