Our note on each quarter CAE files

Where CAE stands after its latest Filing

Revenue for the twelve months was $3.56bn, up 5.0% on a year earlier, slower than the 6.6% growth a quarter earlier. That puts it 48 of 57 for growth among the aerospace & defense companies we cover. Free-cash-flow margin rose to 10.3% from 4.3% a year earlier. Operating margin widened to 12.5% from 8.4%. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C+. It passes 2 of our 7 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $20.15 a share, against a share price of $25.80. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in about 8.7% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, close to the 9.5% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

CAE Inc's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 5.0% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 10.3%. Where it lags: revenue growth of 5.0% ranks 48 of 57 aerospace & defense companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$20 per share in the base case (~$14–$29 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow fell 6.1% while net income fell 22.3%: a 16pp divergence.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 9.0% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is close to the 9.5% a year revenue growth CAE has delivered.

  • Priced in9.0%
  • Last 12 months5.0%
  • 3 years a year5.4%
  • 5 years a year9.5%

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 ($26.38, 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 CAE Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($424M, FY2026 Q4 TTM), growing 5.2% a year for five years and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$14–~$29 ; 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 CAE Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $424M, FY2026 Q4 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 CAE Inc 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 1.16 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How CAE Inc’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: no liquid put and call pair for the same expiry.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

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.
