The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 27, 2027 (estimated)

Littelfuse Inc's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 18.7% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 19.2%. Where it stands out: free-cash-flow margin of 19.2% ranks 2 of 24 electronic components companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$530 per share in the base case (~$410–$700 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 38.7% while net income fell 68.1%: a 107pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Priced below our value. The share price of $394.54 is 35% below our value per share of $530.
  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 18.7% over the last 12 months, against a median of 16.1% for electronic components companies we cover.
  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 3.3 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.3bn.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Margins narrowing. Operating margin is down 3.6 points on a year ago.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 264 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.

  • Insiders selling. 9 insiders sold $37M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (4% under pre-set trading plans).

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Littelfuse Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($450M, FY2026 Q3 TTM), growing 19% and 11.1% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 11.4% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$410–~$700 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Littelfuse Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $450M, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Littelfuse Inc as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.33 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

  • Cash conversion 17 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 10 of 10 years, at a median 13.6% of revenue.

  • Discipline 16 / 20

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Littelfuse Inc’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: fundamentals grade B (needs B+ or better).

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: the shares trade below our fair value: a collar caps upside the model expects.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
