Exchange: NYSE • Country: United States • Currency: USD • Type: Common Stock • ISIN: US5502411037
LUMN: Broadband, Fiber, Cloud, Security, Networking
Lumen Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:LUMN) is a global networking company specializing in integrated telecommunications products and services for business and consumer markets. Operating under the Lumen, Quantum Fiber, CenturyLink, and Black Lotus Labs brands, the company provides a comprehensive suite of solutions, including dark fiber and edge cloud services, managed security, SD-WAN, and unified communications. It also offers broadband services, voice solutions, and legacy network services. Lumen Technologies serves a diverse customer base, ranging from small businesses to federal agencies, leveraging its extensive fiber network and advanced technology platforms. The company, rebranded from CenturyLink in September 2020, is headquartered in Monroe, Louisiana, and has been a key player in the telecommunications industry since its incorporation in 1968.
From a technical perspective, LUMN is currently trading below its 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages, indicating near-term bearish momentum. The stocks average true range (ATR) of 0.31 suggests reduced volatility in recent trading sessions. The last price of $3.35 reflects a decline from its 200-day SMA of $5.35. On the fundamental side, Lumen Technologies has a market capitalization of $3.43 billion, with a forward P/E ratio of 20.49, signaling expectations of future earnings growth. However, the negative return on equity (RoE) of -11.85% highlights profitability challenges. The price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 0.26 indicates undervaluation relative to its revenue, while the high price-to-book (P/B) ratio of 7.25 suggests significant intangible assets or liabilities on the balance sheet.
3-Month Forecast: Based on the technical and fundamental data, LUMN is likely to face continued downward pressure in the near term, given its position below key moving averages. However, the low P/S ratio and potential stabilization in volatility could attract value investors. Expect sideways to slightly bearish movement in the stock price over the next three months, with potential support near $3.00 and resistance around $4.00.Additional Sources for LUMN Stock
