Description: LYTS LSI Industries October 24, 2025
LSI Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: LYTS) designs, manufactures, and sells non-residential lighting fixtures, controls, and a broad suite of retail-display solutions in the United States. Its operations are split between a Lighting segment-offering indoor/outdoor fixtures, sensors, dimming and motion-detection controls-and a Display Solutions segment, which provides printed and digital signage, refrigerated displays, canopy graphics, and turnkey project-management services for verticals such as convenience stores, quick-service restaurants, automotive dealerships, and warehouses.
Recent data (Q2 2024) shows LYTS generating $1.1 billion in annual revenue, with a 5.2 % year-over-year increase driven by higher demand for energy-efficient LED lighting and digital menu-board upgrades in the QSR sector. The company’s gross margin has stabilized around 34 % after a 2023 transition to higher-margin digital signage products. Macro-level drivers include sustained commercial-construction spending (U.S. construction put-in-place index up 3 % YoY) and the ongoing shift toward smart-building automation, which boosts demand for integrated lighting-control systems.
For a deeper look at how LYTS’s valuation compares to peers and to explore scenario-based forecasts, you might find ValueRay’s analytical dashboards useful-especially their sector-wide sensitivity tools that let you test the impact of construction-spending and LED-adoption trends on the stock’s upside potential.
