LNN: Hold + Reduce with a $103.36 price target

Borrowing is lower relative to earnings, but capital spending changes the cash picture.

Target for 2027-09-17: $103.36 USD, -11.2% versus the $116.35 weekly close on 2026-09-11. Price return only; dividends, fees and tax excluded.

Over 1 year (2025-09-12 to 2026-09-11), price changed -16.6% and trailing EPS changed -25.1%. A wider gap changes the earnings multiple; it does not establish fair value.

Net debt / EBITDA: -0.2× for LNN, against 2.8× across 11 comparable peers.

Over the latest four quarters, operating cash was 1.71 times net income. Review receivables, inventory and non-cash charges before judging the gap.

Operating cash covers 1.71 times profit, but cash after capital spending covers 0.81 times. Cash generation is stronger before the investment bill is paid.

The latest quarterly operating margin was 11.8%, -2.6 percentage points from a year earlier. The full report separates sales growth from margin changes.

Watch whether cash after capital spending closes the gap with profit. It currently covers 0.81 times profit over four quarters.

The latest quarterly margin changed -2.6 percentage points from a year earlier. Check sales volumes, pricing and unusual gains in the next filing.

Recheck the valuation gap alongside profitability and growth after new results. A discount alone does not establish value.

Starting annual sales growth: -5.73%.

Net profit margin: 9.98%.
