E.L.F. Beauty: Looks Like A Value Play Here

Summary e.l.f. Beauty (ELF) delivered a mixed Q4, with a double beat but only 1% organic growth and rising SG&A expenses. Gross margin reached an impressive 73%, reflecting strong pricing power, but marketing and SG&A costs surged to 66% of sales. Despite current headwinds, ELF expects FY 2027 adjusted EBITDA margin to remain stable at ~20.7%, with mid single-digit organic growth.
