LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. American Depositary Shares (LFS): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Communication Services · Entertainment · Japan · ADR · High Growth
Is LFS undervalued?
At 2.19 (close of 16 Oct 2026), LFS trades 97% below the GLS average fair value of 66.54. That average comes from 8 models run on the latest filings, and 7 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. American Depositary Shares the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
There is a wide gap between EPV (1.25) and 10 Cap (325.25). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.
The nightly engine files LFS under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.

Quality and financial health
LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. American Depositary Shares scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. A GLS Moat score of 8.8/10 puts LFS among the more durable businesses we track: over ten years the metrics the score watches (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, ROIC) have mostly moved the right way, year after year.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 15.8%, ROE 24.9%, ROA 9.8% - with debt at 0.57 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 4.7%.
LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. American Depositary Shares pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 15.8% |

Wheel Score 39: No options
No options are listed on LEIFRAS Co., Ltd. American Depositary Shares in our nightly snapshot. The Wheel Score is therefore capped at 39 (it reads 39) and the stock is left out of every options screen; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 109k shares a day on a market cap of $57M, with a beta of -0.91 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 97% margin of safety | |
| Health | 9 / 20 | Piotroski 4/9 | |
