What the Analysts think about Astec Industries
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Astec Industries stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Astec Industries stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Second-quarter sales rose 23.6% to $408.1 million and adjusted EBITDA increased 26% to $42.6 million. That points to solid near-term operating momentum, despite the company’s mixed performance between segments. (GlobeNewswire)
Backlog climbed 57.9% to $601.1 million, with Materials Solutions’ backlog up 150.6% and its quarterly adjusted EBITDA up 54.5%. This gives Astec a larger order pipeline, although backlog still needs to convert into profitable sales. (GlobeNewswire)
Parts and service revenue rose 34.8% to $135.5 million and made up 33.2% of quarterly sales. A larger aftermarket business can provide a steadier revenue stream than equipment orders alone. (GlobeNewswire)
Astec cut its 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook to $160–175 million from $170–190 million, as customers pushed some asphalt plant deliveries into later quarters. Higher oil prices and uncertainty over federal highway funding are adding to the timing risk. (GlobeNewswire)
Despite higher sales, quarterly operating margin fell to 5.0% from 6.5%, while net income dropped to $10.5 million from $16.7 million. Infrastructure Solutions’ adjusted EBITDA margin also narrowed by 130 basis points, showing that growth is not yet translating consistently into stronger profitability. (GlobeNewswire)
Acquisition-related borrowing is weighing on the earnings picture: second-quarter interest expense rose to $7.1 million from $2.1 million a year earlier, and net leverage stood at 2.2 times. That leaves less room for error if earnings or cash generation disappoint. (StockTitan, The Motley Fool)
