Mariana Perez Mora’s rating is based on Amentum Holdings, Inc.’s recent financial performance and future outlook. The company’s adjusted earnings per share for the fourth quarter slightly exceeded expectations, driven by stronger revenues, although this was partially offset by a marginally lower EBITDA margin. The company’s backlog and book-to-bill ratio indicate a solid pipeline of future work, supported by significant contract awards with major entities such as the Space Force and NASA, despite some ongoing protests.
However, the financial outlook for fiscal year 2026 aligns with existing expectations, suggesting limited immediate upside potential. The stock’s current market price is close to the price objective set by Bank of America Securities, indicating that the stock is fairly valued at present. Additionally, the company’s high net debt to equity ratio may pose a risk, which contributes to the decision to maintain a Hold rating.
Perez Mora covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Caci International, Palantir Technologies, and OSI Systems. According to TipRanks, Perez Mora has an average return of 45.6% and a 68.47% success rate on recommended stocks.
