As of the October 20, 2026 close, SMG finished 9.73% below its 150-day moving average ($60.25) and 10.79% below its 200-day moving average ($60.97). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is SMG overbought or oversold?
At the October 20, 2026 close, SMG's RSI(14) was 71.1, in overbought territory (above 70). The MACD histogram was positive, so short-term momentum leaned bullish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, SMG has $27.7M in cash with $2.49B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. Annual free cash flow of $248.5M supports ongoing capital allocation decisions and provides a cushion against unexpected expenses or downturns. An ROA of 9.3% suggests reasonable efficiency in deploying the company's asset base. Revenue has pulled back from $3.92B (2022) to $3.41B (2025), a 13% decline worth watching.
With a beta above 1.5, SMG tends to amplify broader market moves — both up and down. This higher volatility means larger price swings are common. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company carries a heavier debt load relative to its cash position, which introduces financial risk that investors should weigh. It is important to consider these factors alongside broader market conditions and individual financial goals when reviewing SMG.
