Description: LYTS LSI Industries December 27, 2025

L​SI Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: LYTS) designs, manufactures, and sells non-residential lighting and retail-display solutions in the United States, operating through two segments: Lighting (outdoor/indoor fixtures, sensors, dimming and control systems) and Display Solutions (printed and digital signage, refrigerated displays, custom merchandising fixtures, and related project-management services). Its customer base spans convenience stores, parking facilities, quick-service restaurants, retail chains, automotive dealers, sports venues, and warehouses.

As of FY 2023, LSI reported revenue of roughly $210 million, with a 7 % year-over-year increase driven primarily by higher demand for LED retrofit projects and digital menu-board upgrades in the QSR segment. The company’s EBITDA margin hovered near 12 %, reflecting modest pricing power but also exposure to raw-material cost volatility (e.g., aluminum and semiconductor components). A key macro driver is the ongoing commercial-real-estate renovation cycle, which fuels spending on energy-efficient lighting and modernized point-of-sale displays; the U.S. commercial lighting market is projected to grow at 4-5 % CAGR through 2028.

For a deeper, data-driven look at LYTS’s valuation metrics and peer comparison, you might find ValueRay’s analytical dashboard worth a quick glance.
