Trading above fair value
How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 13.1x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: AA is currently trading at $61.35, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $56.77 to $64.04. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 11.7) compared to its historical average (13.1). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 3.6% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 12.1% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.
Technical Outlook: Technically, AA is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $55.92, while resistance sits at $65.00. The stock is showing strong short-term momentum, up 5.4% recently.
Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (40/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
