Description: LEG Leggett & Platt January 18, 2026
Leggett & Platt (NYSE: LEG) is a diversified manufacturer of engineered components for the bedding, furniture, automotive, aerospace, and industrial markets. Its product portfolio spans steel rods, innersprings, specialty foams, hydraulic cylinders, motion hardware, and soft-seating systems, serving OEMs, private-label manufacturers, big-box retailers, and e-commerce platforms worldwide.
Key operating metrics (FY 2024) show revenue of roughly $4.1 billion, an adjusted EBITDA margin near 13 %, and a free-cash-flow conversion of about 70 %-indicating solid cash generation despite cyclical exposure to the U.S. housing market.
