NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder rights law firm, is investigating potential claims against Leslie's, Inc. (NASDAQ: LESL) on behalf of long-term stockholders following a class action complaint that was filed against Leslie's on September 8, 2023 with a Class Period from February 5, 2021 to July 13, 2023. Our investigation concerns whether the board of directors of Leslie's have breached their fiduciary duties to the company.

Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.

I recommend a hold rating for Leslie's stock due to persistent weak demand and an uncertain macro environment, despite some signs of recovery. LESL's Q3FY24 results showed an 8% y/y decline in net sales and a significant drop in margins, with adj. EPS missing consensus estimates. LESL's high leverage ratio of 6.1x net debt-to-EBITDA and recent $5 million one-time charge indicate financial strain and operational limitations.

Leslie's Inc. faces significant financial struggles, with a 77% stock decline, high debt, and weak sales, prompting a switch to a "Sell" rating. Despite logistical advantages and customer loyalty, rising costs and ineffective SG&A management are squeezing profits, impacting operating income and margins. Growth among PRO customers and improved inventory management offer some positives, but overall financial metrics and valuation remain concerning.
