Life360, Inc. represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Life360, Inc. receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 40.8/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #3446 out of 7,333 stocks. LIF's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
With a quality score of 48/100, LIF shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of 7.4% (sector avg: 5.7%), gross margins of 78.1% (sector avg: 64.6%), net margins of 6.6% (sector avg: 2.8%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
With a value score of 41/100, LIF appears somewhat expensive relative to its fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 137.46x, an EV/EBITDA of 806.31x, a P/B ratio of 10.14x. Investors paying a premium here are likely betting on above-average growth or margin expansion to justify current prices.
Life360, Inc.'s investment score of 28/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 46.7% vs. a sector average of 8.6% and a return on assets of 3.7% (sector: 2.4%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
LIF demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 55/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at 46.7% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.83 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Moderate momentum may indicate the stock is consolidating or transitioning between trends, warranting close monitoring of upcoming catalysts.
LIF's stability score of 31/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.83 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 101.00x (sector avg: 0.3x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
Life360, Inc.'s short interest score of 33/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 1.83), elevated leverage (D/E: 101.00x). At $8.2B (mid-cap), LIF carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
Life360, Inc. is a mid-cap company in the Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #3446 of 7,333 overall (53rd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 7.4% exceeding the 5.7% sector median and operating margins of 0.8% below the 4.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Services peers.
While LIF currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the SERVICES sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
