LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. (LITB): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Consumer Cyclical · Specialty Retail · Singapore · ADR · Value
Is LITB undervalued?
LITB has a margin of safety of 89%: the stock closed at 2.98 on 16 Oct 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 27.72. 6 of the 6 valuation models that produced a number sit above the price. Our screens treat a discount this large as a strong starting point for a cash-secured put, not as a verdict - the fair value is a model output, and a wide gap can mean the models are missing something the market knows.
There is a wide gap between EPV (10.98) and GLS Growth (60.51). 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 LITB under Value: positive earnings at a P/E of 18 or less.

Quality and financial health
LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. scores 6 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. A GLS Moat score of 2.7/10 is a weak reading: the ten-year history the score grades (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, share count, ROIC) has not been steady, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 578.1%, ROE -208.4%, ROA 11.5% - with debt at -1.36 times equity and negative free cash flow.
LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain. Revenue comes mainly from Product 96%, Service 4% (fiscal year FY2025).
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.

Wheel Score 39: No options
No options are listed on LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. 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 4k shares a day on a market cap of $27M, with a beta of 0.02 - 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 | 89% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 4 / 15 | moat 2.7/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 4k shares/day, $27M cap, beta 0.02 |
