Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: valued with our growth model, which doesn't carry a Buy/Hold/Sell rating yet.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Gatx Corp's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $212M, FY2026 Q3 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 Gatx Corp as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.2%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.94 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. — Does not apply: the projected cash flows don't support a positive value
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. ~$210 ~$180–$250 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. ~$100 ~$75–$150 Included
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. ~$110 ~$95–$130 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. — Does not apply: revenue and margins don't support a positive value
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. ~$140 ~$100–$210 3 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Gatx Corp with Trading Companies & Distributors in our coverage, using third-party market data. Model values are estimates under stated assumptions, updated as new filings arrive; not price targets or investment advice. How each model works.

Moat

43 /100

Weak moat

How hard Gatx's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 1 / 20

    Net income has been a median 2.3% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Durability 12 / 20

    Net margin has been a median 16.9%; its worst year was 8.0%.

  • Cash conversion 10 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 6 of 10 years, at a median 7.5% of revenue.

  • Discipline 17 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 0.4% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 1.1% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (48 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.

Forecasts and guidance

Next results: January 20, 2027, before the open. Analysts expect revenue of $594m and EPS of $2.57 (range $2.53 to $2.60) for the quarter.

Management guidance

Earnings release, October 29, 2026
  • diluted earnings per share 2026 full-year $9.90 to $10.30 Non-GAAP Raised
    “we now expect our 2026 full-year earnings to modestly exceed the high end of our previously announced guidance range of $9.90 to $10.30 per diluted share.” source

Figures and quotations are management's, copied from the company's own press release (SEC 8-K exhibit) and checked word for word against it. Forward-looking statements are the company's expectations, not ours and not advice; guidance can change or be missed.

How our valuation uses these forecasts

Our cash-flow model grows Gatx Corp's revenue by +13.1% next year and +15.5% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+8.9%, weight 62%) and the company's own record (+20.0%, weight 38%) . How the weights are set.
