Foolish take

Just two quarters after opening a position in Figs around $4.60 a share, Security Benefit liquidated its stake in the company at around $6, taking a quick profit.

However, since the end of September, Figs' stock has soared to $9 per share, more than doubling in just the last year.

From an idea perspective, there is a lot to like about Figs. Customers love its premium scrubs and apparel for healthcare workers. Furthermore, most of its products are items that need to be continually replaced as they are used, creating a nice repeat base of sales.

That said, the company and its stock haven't really hit their stride (until recently) on the publicly traded markets.

In its last quarter, Figs grew sales by a reasonable 8% -- but this was its highest figure in two years. That is not a lot of growth for a young company like Figs, especially considering its valuation.

Even if we assume the company grows to develop a 15% net income margin over time -- comparable to quasi-peer Lululemon (NASDAQ:LULU) -- it would still trade at roughly 20 times earnings. This is cheap, but not blatantly so for an apparel company.

Worse yet, Figs' current net income margin is only 6%, so it has plenty of work ahead of it just to reach this theoretical valuation.

Ultimately, I think Figs is a very interesting business and a benefit to those it serves -- but its stock isn't as interesting to me at the moment.

That said, Figs only gets roughly 14% of its sales from international markets, where it has a market share of less than 1%. If it continues to increase revenue by double-digit rates in these markets, it could grow into its valuation.
