What the Analysts think about CRS
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Carpenter Technology stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Carpenter Technology stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Carpenter finished FY26 with record adjusted operating income of $702 million, up 34%, and management guides FY27 to $850 million-$880 million, a further 21%-25% rise. It also expects $400 million-$430 million of adjusted free cash flow, giving the growth case cash backing. (Markets Insider)
Aerospace and defence sales rose 17% year on year in the fourth quarter, while aerospace engine sales rose nearly 30%. Management says Boeing and Airbus are increasing output against a backlog of about 16,000 aircraft, with elevated maintenance demand adding support. (Yahoo Finance)
The Athens, Alabama brownfield expansion is on budget and on schedule for completion by the start of FY28, while management targets $1.2 billion-$1.3 billion of operating income by FY29. Productivity, pricing and product-mix gains could therefore extend growth beyond the current aerospace recovery. (Markets Insider, Yahoo Finance)
CRS is priced for sustained execution: recent commentary put its price-to-earnings ratio around 43-49 times, above the aerospace and defence industry average, after sharp share-price gains. Any miss in margins, orders or guidance could therefore cause a disproportionate re-rating. (Simply Wall St, Seeking Alpha)
The earnings engine remains heavily exposed to aerospace and defence: management says Boeing’s build rate is the biggest input to FY27 and acknowledges that some structural customers are ordering below expected demand. A slower production ramp could weaken volume growth and put the forecast under pressure. (Yahoo Finance)
The Athens expansion and the raw-material and trade environment create execution risk: the company warns that project delays or excess costs, volatile alloy inputs and tariffs could materially hurt results. Surcharges may not fully offset rapid cost changes or policy disruption. (StockTitan)
