AI Analysis

AI-powered fundamental assessment

Confidence
85%
Huntsman Corporation exhibits a stable Piotroski F-Score of 5/9, but this is overshadowed by severe fundamental deterioration. The company is currently unprofitable with negative margins and a concerning 180% dividend payout ratio, indicating the dividend is unsustainable. Despite a recent 6-month price rally, the long-term trend is deeply negative, and the forward P/E of 104.07 suggests minimal expected earnings recovery. The stock is trading above the analyst target price of $12.69, leaving little room for upside given the negative growth trajectory.

Key Strengths

Low Price-to-Book ratio (0.86) suggesting the stock trades below liquidation value
Low Price-to-Sales ratio (0.42) indicating cheap revenue valuation
Manageable Debt/Equity ratio of 0.81
Recent 6-month price momentum (+50%)
Stable Piotroski F-Score (5/9) indicating baseline financial stability

Key Risks

Unsustainable dividend payout ratio of 180%
Negative profit margins (-5.00%) and negative ROE (-7.12%)
Consistent earnings misses (0/4 beats in the last 4 quarters)
Negative revenue growth both YoY (-6.70%) and Q/Q (-5.19%)
Extremely high Forward P/E (104.07) reflecting very low earnings expectations
