The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 4, 2026 (estimated)

Legalzoom.com, Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 12.3% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 18.9%. Where it stands out: days sales outstanding of 9 days ranks 2 of 14 internet services & infrastructure companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$8.4 per share in the base case (~$6.5–$11 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 14.4% while net income fell 41.4%: a 56pp 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 $6.93 is 21% below our value per share of $8.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.2bn.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 75 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 60% and a beta of 0.5 against the S&P 500.
  • Heavily shorted. 11.1% of the shares available to trade are sold short (4.7 days of average volume to cover).
  • Missing expectations. Earnings per share fell short of the consensus estimate in 3 of the last four quarters.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Legalzoom.com, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($35.6M, FY2026 Q2 TTM), growing 5% and 8.2% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 9.9% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$6.5–~$11 ; 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 Legalzoom.com, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $35.6M, FY2026 Q2 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 Legalzoom.com, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.09 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Moat

41 /100

  • Returns on capital 0 / 20

    Net income has been a median 0.6% of total assets over 6 years.

  • Pricing power 20 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 65.7%, moving by 1.1 percentage points (standard deviation) across 6 years.

  • Durability 0 / 20

  • Cash conversion 17 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 6 of 6 years, at a median 14.3% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (46 before it).

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Legalzoom.com, Inc.’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 3, 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.
