Is Life360 (ASX:360) A Bargain As New Premium Services And Hardware Lift Its Story?
Life360 (ASX:360) is back in focus after rolling out fresh premium services and integrated hardware, including unified Tile devices and a GPS pet tracker, alongside very strong trailing earnings growth.
Recent trading tells a mixed story. At A$21.04, the stock has a 30 day share price return of 10.39% yet is down 35.18% year to date, while the 3 year total shareholder return of 169.40% still reflects strong longer run momentum.

Bulls point to Life360's earnings surge and product expansion, while bears focus on the sharp year to date share price decline. Which story does the current valuation actually support?
Most Popular Narrative: 32% Undervalued
On the most followed view, Life360's fair value of A$31.05 sits well above the last close at A$21.04. This puts the current share price up against a much richer long term story built around premium services, hardware and new revenue lines.
The growing global emphasis on family safety and real-time connectivity, combined with increased urbanization, is driving greater demand for comprehensive digital safety platforms. Life360's strong brand awareness, cultural relevance ("fambushing," viral campaigns), and recognition as an essential household app position it to capture more users and drive both subscriber growth and ARPU, supporting higher revenues and recurring earnings.
See why 62 investors see Life360 as 32% undervalued.
Result: Fair Value of A$31.05 (UNDERVALUED)

Another View: Life360 Through The P/E Lens
The first story on Life360 leans heavily on analyst fair value at A$31.05, which points to a wide A$21.04 to A$31.05 gap. A simple P/E check offers a different angle. At 24.6x, the stock trades a little above the Australian software sector on 23.4x, yet below its own fair ratio of 36x.
In plain terms, the share price already reflects a premium to peers but still trails what the fair ratio suggests the market could eventually move toward. The key question is whether that gap signals extra upside or simply additional valuation risk for you as an investor.
