The company has a P/E ratio of 41.4, equal to the average consumer durables industry P/E ratio and above the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. TheStreet Ratings rates Leapfrog as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, good cash flow from operations and notable return on equity. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself, unimpressive growth in net income and poor profit margins.
