AXTA's deterministic scorecard shows a Piotroski F-Score of 4/9, indicating stable but not strong financial health, and the absence of an Altman Z-Score prevents a full distress risk assessment. The stock trades below the growth-based intrinsic value of $48.10 but above the conservative Graham Number of $22.25, suggesting mixed valuation signals. Despite solid profitability metrics like a 21.33% ROE and consistent earnings beats, revenue is contracting YoY by 2.40%, and insider activity is bearish with recent selling. Analysts recommend a 'buy' with a $36.71 target, implying moderate upside from current levels around $33.62.
Key Strengths
Strong return on equity (ROE) of 21.33%, well above sector average of -2.78%
Consistent earnings outperformance with 3 out of last 4 quarters beating estimates and an average surprise of 5.55%
Healthy operating margin of 15.76% in a competitive specialty chemicals environment
Forward P/E of 12.60 is significantly below sector average P/E of 33.54, suggesting relative value
Current ratio of 2.20 and quick ratio of 1.42 indicate solid short-term liquidity
Key Risks
Piotroski F-Score of 4/9 suggests below-average financial strength and limited resilience in downturns
Revenue growth is negative YoY (-2.40%), indicating top-line pressure despite earnings growth
High debt/equity ratio of 1.46, well above sector average of 0.63, increasing financial risk
Insider selling activity in the last 6 months signals lack of confidence from management
Missing key financial data (e.g., Altman Z-Score, EV/EBITDA, free cash flow) limits confidence in health assessment
