Jakks Pacific Inc's Strategic Group Map
Jakks Pacific Inc is shown in red; its closest peers by combined growth, margin and ROIC are labeled. See Methodology: Strategic Group Map for how this chart is built.
Jakks Pacific Inc's trailing-12-month revenue growth of 9.4% and operating margin of 3.7% compares with an average of 5.6% growth and 4.6% margin across its 8 closest peers by combined growth, margin and ROIC -- Jakks Pacific Inc sits above that peer average on growth and below it on margin.

Jakks Pacific Inc's BCG Growth-Share Matrix
See Methodology: BCG Growth-Share Matrix for how relative share and growth are calculated and thresholded.
Jakks Pacific Inc falls in the Dog quadrant: relative market share of 0.02x vs its largest competitor, in an industry growing revenue 3.1% (median, trailing 12 months).
Source: CSIMarket API (market-cap share and industry revenue growth). The 10% growth and 1.0x share lines are standard textbook thresholds, not derived from this industry's own distribution. A caveat worth reading alongside this chart: Hasbro Inc alone holds 46% of this industry's market cap. In an industry this dominated by one leader, the framework will place nearly every OTHER company in "Dog" or "Question Mark" purely because relative share is measured against that leader, regardless of how strong those other companies actually are on their own fundamentals. Check the Profitability, Valuation and Financial Strength sections above before treating this quadrant label as a verdict.
