The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 4, 2026 (estimated)

Materion Corp's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 21.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 2.4%. Where it stands out: stock pay as % of revenue of 0.7% ranks 2 of 13 diversified metals & mining companies we cover. Where it lags: gross margin of 16.0% ranks 12 of 14 diversified metals & mining companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$75 per share in the base case (~$49–$110 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 45.1% while net income grew 453.5%: a 499pp divergence.

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

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 21.6% over the last 12 months, against a median of 14.6% for diversified metals & mining companies we cover.
  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 10.2 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 12.1% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 50 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 62% and a beta of 2.2 against the S&P 500.
  • Insiders selling. 8 insiders sold $19M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (2% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Gross margin slipping. Gross margin is down 3.3 points on a year ago.
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was 56% of net income over the last 12 months.

Moat

48 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Materion'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 9 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median 7.9% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Pricing power 8 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 19.0%, moving by 2.5 percentage points (standard deviation) across 10 years.

  • Durability 6 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 4.9%; its worst year was 2.0%.

  • Cash conversion 10 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 8 of 10 years, at a median 3.1% of revenue.

  • Discipline 16 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 1.5% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 0.6% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Low. In this industry, the business rests on physical assets, regulated networks or products AI itself depends on.

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.
