MED
Medifast, Inc. (MED) Risks & Opportunities Analysis (2026)
Overall Score
Valuation
Trading at a very low EV/Sales multiple of 0.30x and P/S of 0.44x, suggesting the market is pricing in limited growth.
Price-to-book of 0.72x and price-to-fair-value of 0.72x indicate the shares remain below stated book/fair value measures.
Profitability
TTM margins remain negative, with EBIT margin at -4.4% and net margin at -8.1%.
Returns are still depressed, with ROA at -9.8%, ROE at -12.7%, and ROIC at -7.7%.
Liquidity Balance Sheet
Current ratio of 4.86x and quick ratio of 4.35x indicate strong short-term liquidity.
Debt-to-equity of 0.14x and debt-to-assets of 0.11x suggest leverage remains modest despite negative EBITDA.
Cash Flow
Operating cash flow remains positive, but free cash flow conversion is modest with FCF/OCF at 45.6%.
FCF yield is only 2.8% and price-to-free-cash-flow is elevated at 35.1x, limiting cash-flow-based upside.
Operational Efficiency
Gross margin is healthy at 69.2%, but SG&A consumes 75.4% of revenue, pressuring operating profitability.
Inventory turnover of 4.6x and a negative cash conversion cycle of -57.0 days show decent working-capital management.
