NYSE: AME NYSE Electrical Components & Equipment Next results ~November 3, 2026

A Fundamentals grade

AMETEK designs and manufactures electronic instruments and electromechanical devices through two groups: Electronic Instruments and Electromechanical. Electronic Instruments makes process and analytical equipment such as analysers, emission monitors and precision metrology systems, plus aerospace instruments including aircraft sensors, cockpit displays and power-quality monitoring and uninterruptible power equipment. Electromechanical supplies precision motion-control systems, medical components such as surgical instruments and drug-delivery devices, thermal-management systems, specialty metals and electrical connectors.

Customers span process industries, power utilities, aerospace and defence manufacturers, medical device makers and automation businesses, reached through a direct sales force as well as distributors and representatives. Revenue comes mainly from equipment sales, plus spare parts, repairs and aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul work for commercial and military aviation customers; no single customer accounts for a large share of either group's sales.

The two segments, split roughly 70:30 between main and secondary markets, run manufacturing and service sites across North America, Europe, Asia and South America, including the UK, Germany, China and Mexico. Tracing its roots to 1930, the company employs around 22,500 people and in 2025 acquired FARO Technologies and Kern Microtechnik, adding 3D measurement and high-precision machining capabilities.

Based on Ametek's 10-K filed February 17, 2026.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 13.0% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is faster than the 7.2% a year revenue growth Ametek has delivered.

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($251.31, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Ametek's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($1.9B, FY2026 Q2 TTM), growing 13.9% and 12.1% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 9.8% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$170–~$300 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Ametek's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $1.9B, FY2026 Q2 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Ametek as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.2%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.17 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

How our valuation uses these forecasts

Our cash-flow model grows Ametek's revenue by +13.9% next year and +12.1% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+16.3%, weight 56%) , management guidance (+12.0%, weight 19%) and the company's own record (+9.8%, weight 25%) . How the weights are set.

AME Ametek Grade A $244.61

Own 100 shares, sell the $250 call expiring December 18, 2026 (46 days) for $6.60 a share — $660 per contract.

Previous session · Bid $6.60, ask $8.00, quoted Mon 2 Nov, 17:14 New York time with AME at $244.61. Option prices move with the shares: check the live chain at your broker before trading.

  • If AME ends below $250: you keep your shares and the $660 — 2.7% extra on the position, 21.4% a year at that pace.
  • If it ends above $250: your shares are sold at $250, a total return of 4.9% including the premium — at or above our value of ~$230.

Results are expected around November 3, 2026, before this option expires: the share price can jump on results, and the premium partly reflects that.

Collar

Own the shares, buy the $240 put and sell the $250 call, both expiring December 18, 2026 (46 days).

  • Net cost of $3.40 a share ($340 per contract of 100 shares).
  • Worst case at expiry: -3.3%, if the shares fall below $240 (-1.9% from today).
  • Best case at expiry: +0.8%, if the shares rise above $250 (+2.2%); gains beyond that go to the call buyer.

Offered because the shares trade at or above our fair value of $230: a way to hold on with a floor under the price, paid for by giving up upside the model does not expect. Strikes near 25-delta; the put at its ask and the call at its bid. Protection has a cost over time: research on protective puts finds they have usually lowered returns.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.

Growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet are percentiles against the companies we cover in the same industry, from SEC filings (100 = best).

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
