How to Read This Chart

This chart tracks the historical stock price of Lewis Group over time. You can switch between daily, weekly, and monthly views and select custom time ranges — from a single day to the full available history. Use the toggle to view price changes in absolute currency terms or as a percentage change relative to the starting date.

Total Return vs. Price Return

The "Total Return" toggle includes reinvested dividends on top of the pure price movement. This is critical because dividends can account for a significant portion of long-term returns. Historically, roughly 40 % of the S&P 500's total return has come from dividends. Always compare total return when evaluating a stock's real performance against a benchmark.

Intraday Price Data

When viewing a one-day time frame, the chart displays real-time intraday price movements. This is useful for observing how Lewis Group stock reacts to market openings, earnings releases, or breaking news throughout the trading session.

What to Look For

Look for long-term trends (sustained upward or downward movements over months and years), support and resistance levels (price zones where the stock repeatedly bounces or reverses), and volatility (how much the price fluctuates day to day). Comparing Lewis Group's price chart to a market index like the S&P 500 can reveal whether the stock is outperforming or underperforming the broader market.

Income Statement Key Figures

ⓘ

Revenue and Revenue Growth

Revenue is the starting point of every income statement — it measures the total sales Lewis Group generates from its core business. Revenue growth (expressed as year-over-year percentage change) is one of the most important indicators of business momentum. Sustained growth above 10 % annually is generally considered strong, while declining revenue is a serious warning sign that demands investigation.

Gross Margin

Gross margin = (Revenue − Cost of Goods Sold) ÷ Revenue. It reveals what percentage of each dollar of revenue Lewis Group retains after direct production costs. High gross margins (above 50 %) are typical of asset-light businesses like software and brands, while capital-intensive industries like manufacturing often operate below 30 %. Compare Lewis Group's gross margin to industry peers and track it over time to spot improving or deteriorating pricing power.

EBIT and EBIT Margin

EBIT measures operating profit — what remains after subtracting all operating expenses (including R&D, sales, and administrative costs) from gross profit. The EBIT margin shows this as a percentage of revenue. Because it excludes interest and taxes, EBIT allows fair comparisons between companies with different debt levels and tax jurisdictions. A rising EBIT margin indicates improving operational efficiency.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Net income is the company's final profit after all expenses, interest, and taxes. Dividing net income by the number of shares outstanding gives you EPS — the single most influential metric in stock valuation. Consistent EPS growth is the primary driver of long-term stock price appreciation. Always check whether EPS growth comes from genuine profit improvement or from share buybacks reducing the share count.

Shares Outstanding

The total number of shares Lewis Group has issued. A declining share count (through buybacks) boosts EPS and signals management confidence. A rising share count (through stock issuance) dilutes existing shareholders. Always monitor this number alongside EPS to get the full picture of per-share value creation.

Analyst Estimates

The projected figures represent consensus estimates from professional analysts. Compare these forecasts against Lewis Group's historical growth rates to assess whether expectations are realistic. A company that consistently beats consensus estimates tends to see its stock price rewarded over time, while repeated misses erode investor confidence.

Lewis Group stock margins

The Lewis Group margin analysis displays the gross margin, EBIT margin, as well as the profit margin of Lewis Group. The EBIT margin (EBIT/sales) indicates the percentage of sales that remains as operating profit. The profit margin shows the percentage of sales that remains for Lewis Group.

Lewis Group business model & stock analysis

The Lewis Group Ltd is a South African retail chain with a wide range of furniture, household appliances, and electronic products. The company was founded in 1934 and has since become one of the largest retailers in the country. The group has been listed on the stock exchange since 2004 and has its headquarters in Cape Town. The Lewis Group's vision is to offer customers from all walks of life high-quality products at affordable prices. The offer is particularly aimed at families with limited income who want to furnish their homes with modern and practical furniture and appliances. The group operates more than 700 stores in South Africa and is also present in Namibia, Botswana, and Eswatini. The business model is based on installment purchases. This means that the group offers customers the opportunity to finance larger purchases by comfortably paying the costs in monthly installments. This model has proven to be particularly successful and allows the Lewis Group to target customers with low or irregular incomes. The group's offer is diverse and includes a wide range of furniture, including upholstered furniture, cabinets, beds, and mattresses. The range of household appliances includes refrigerators, washing machines, stoves, and microwaves, among others. In addition, there are electronic products such as computers, smartphones, and televisions. One focus of the group is also to make the respective products more affordable for the target groups and thus enable people from all social classes to furnish their living situation according to their own taste. The group is divided into various divisions, some of which are interrelated. For example, the Lewis Furniture stores focus on furniture, bridal furnishings, children's furniture, and colorful and creative themed furniture for children. Another division of the group is the Beares Furniture store, which specializes primarily in bedroom, living room, and dining room furniture. Installment purchases are also offered in this segment. Through the brand Best Home and Electric, the group has established a division in which it offers electronic products from renowned brands such as Apple, Samsung, and LG. Within this brand, there are also affordable offers of electrical items that are especially appreciated by price-conscious customers. Lewis Stores' nationwide return, 2nd hand, and excess stock business are another important factor in the group. The group operates a tight network of stores and has a special focus on rural areas. This is intended to reach customers who would otherwise have no access to modern furniture and electronics stores. The Lewis Group thus also fulfills a social mission by offering easier or less affluent people the opportunity to improve their living conditions. In addition, the group offers numerous benefits to its customers through the Lewis Club. Members receive preferential prices, discounts, or exclusive offers that are only accessible to members. The option of faster processing of installment payments is also available to Lewis Club members. Overall, the Lewis Group has become one of the leading retailers in South Africa in recent decades. With its business model, which focuses on long-term customer loyalty and social responsibility, the group sets itself apart from competitors. The wide range of electronics, furniture, and household appliances has also contributed to the group becoming a permanent part of the retail sector in South Africa.

Fair Value Estimate

ⓘ

What Is Fair Value?

Fair value is an estimate of what a stock is truly "worth" based on its financial fundamentals, independent of the current market price. If the calculated fair value is above the current share price, the stock may be undervalued — and vice versa. This chart shows three different fair value approaches so you can cross-check them against each other.

Earnings-Based Fair Value

Calculated by multiplying the current earnings per share (EPS) by the average historical P/E ratio over a selected multi-year period. The smoothing over several years filters out temporary spikes or dips. If this fair value exceeds the market price, it suggests the stock is cheap relative to its earning power.

Example: Fair Value (Earnings) 2022 = EPS 2022 × Average P/E 2019–2021

Revenue-Based Fair Value

Derived by multiplying revenue per share by the average historical price-to-sales ratio. This method is particularly useful for companies with volatile or temporarily depressed earnings, as revenue tends to be more stable than profits. It answers: "At what price has the market historically valued each dollar of this company's sales?"

Example: Fair Value (Revenue) 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 × Average P/S 2019–2021

Dividend-Based Fair Value

Calculated by dividing the dividend per share by the average historical dividend yield. This approach is most relevant for mature, consistently dividend-paying companies. If the resulting fair value is higher than the current price, it implies the stock offers a better yield than its historical average.

Example: Fair Value (Dividend) 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 ÷ Average Yield 2019–2021

How to Use This Chart

When all three fair value lines converge above the current price, it strengthens the case that the stock is undervalued. When they diverge, investigate why — it may indicate a structural shift in margins, payout policy, or growth rate. The forward estimates on the right extend the analysis using projected fundamentals, helping you assess whether the current price already reflects future growth expectations.

Annual Return

ⓘ

What This Chart Shows

This chart breaks down 's total annual return into two components: price return (gains or losses from stock price movement) and dividend return (income received from dividend payments). Together, they represent the total return an investor would have earned in each calendar year.

Price Return

Price return measures the percentage change in 's stock price from January 1st to December 31st of each year. Positive bars indicate the stock appreciated; negative bars show a decline. This is the component most investors focus on, but it tells only part of the story — especially for dividend-paying stocks.

Dividend Return

Dividend return represents the income generated from dividends paid during the year, expressed as a percentage of the starting stock price. While it may seem small in any single year (typically 1–4 % for established companies), dividends compound significantly over decades and have historically contributed roughly 40 % of total stock market returns.

What to Look For

Examine how many years showed positive vs. negative returns to gauge consistency. A stock with mostly positive years and small drawdowns suggests lower risk. Also compare 's annual returns to a benchmark index — consistently outperforming the market is a hallmark of a strong investment. Pay attention to the worst years: understanding downside risk is just as important as chasing upside potential.

Lewis Group shares outstanding

The number of shares of Lewis Group was 53.8 M in 2025. This indicates how many shares Lewis Group is divided into. Since shareholders are the owners of a company, each share represents a small portion of the company's ownership.
