Spectrum Brands Holdings (SPB) has quietly outperformed the broader market over the past 3 months, climbing about 12%, even as its year to date return remains sharply negative and value-focused investors reassess the story.
See our latest analysis for Spectrum Brands Holdings.
Zooming out, that 11.6% 3 month share price return looks more like a rebound than a full trend change. The year to date share price return is still deeply negative and the 1 year total shareholder return is also in the red, suggesting sentiment is improving but not fully repaired.
If Spectrum Brands has you rethinking your watchlist, this could be a good moment to scout other household names and discover fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.
With the share price still down sharply this year but trading at a sizeable discount to analyst targets and some value metrics flashing green, is Spectrum Brands a contrarian buying opportunity, or is the market already pricing in its recovery?
With Spectrum Brands last closing at $59.84 against a narrative fair value of $75.14, the gap points to a meaningful potential upside if assumptions hold.
Successful execution of cost-reduction initiatives (over $50M in annual savings) and ongoing supply chain diversification are expected to structurally improve EBITDA margins and net income over the medium term.
Curious how modest top line expectations can still support a much higher value? The narrative leans on expanding margins, falling share count, and a lower future earnings multiple. Want to see how all those moving parts stack up under a 6.96% discount rate and still land above today’s price?
Result: Fair Value of $75.14 (UNDERVALUED)
