Our note on each quarter Albany International files

10-Q filed October 29: Albany International

Model value +23.7%

Albany International's revenue reached $1.31bn in the twelve months to September 2026, a 14.2% rise on a year earlier and a sharp acceleration from the 3.2% growth seen a quarter earlier. Profitability told a mixed story: operating margin widened markedly to 11.2% from -3.6%, yet free-cash-flow margin slipped to 5.3% from 8.0% over the same period. Fewer shares are now in issue, with the diluted count down 6.2% on a year earlier, which flatters per-share metrics. Taken together, these shifts push the fundamentals grade up from D to C+. Our model value has climbed accordingly, from $38.68 to $47.85 a share. That figure still sits well below the current share price of $65.67, leaving a notable gap between the model's assessment and where the market has the stock marked.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Highlights

How we pick these

Strengths

  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 11.0 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 14.8 points on a year ago.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 6.2% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was 79% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Below peers: days sales outstanding. Days sales outstanding of 77 days ranks 51 of 65 industrial machinery & supplies & components companies we cover (median 63 days).
  • Earnings expected to fall. The consensus expects earnings per share to fall 13% next year.

Valuation models

We value Albany International Corp as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.8%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.07 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Growth cash-flow model Revenue for this year and next from analysts' consensus, then growth fading to 2.5%; the operating margin moving to profitable peers'; investment needed per dollar of growth from peers; reduced by a failure probability. For young or fast-growing companies. The starting margin is normalized to between -100% and 60%; net margin is a proxy when operating income is not tagged. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$51 ~$33–$63 Primary model, counts double
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$55 ~$50–$72 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. ~$23 ~$16–$31 Included
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. ~$20 ~$18–$24 Included
Forward price-to-sales vs peers Next year's consensus sales per share times peers' typical forward price-to-sales; only when earnings are negative. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. — Does not apply: earnings are positive: price-to-earnings is the better measure
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. ~$87 ~$68–$110 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (growth cash-flow model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$48 ~$20–$87 5 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Albany International Corp with Industrial Machinery & Supplies & Components in our coverage, using third-party market data.
