Apollo Global remains a 'buy' despite sector pressures, with a fair value estimate of $154, nearly 25% above current levels. APO is largely insulated from private credit and software sector risks, with only 2% credit exposure to software and no private equity software exposure. Q1 results showed $1.94 EPS (beat by $0.06), $1.03T AUM (+$90B sequentially), 30% FRE growth, and $74B in dry powder supporting future fee growth.

It has been about a month since the last earnings report for Apollo Global Management Inc. (APO - Free Report) . Shares have added about 0.5% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.

But investors have to be wondering, will the recent positive trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Apollo Global Management due for a pullback? Well, first let's take a quick look at its most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the recent catalysts for Apollo Global Management Inc. before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late.

Apollo Global Q1 Earnings Miss Estimates, AUM Surpasses $1TApollo Global first-quarter 2026 adjusted net income (ANI) per share of $1.94 missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.98. The metric increased from the year-ago adjusted net income of $1.82.

Results were adversely affected by rising expenses. However, record fee-related earnings and an increased assets under management balance were positive.

The results include certain items. After considering those, the net loss attributable to Apollo Global (GAAP basis) was $1.93 billion against net income of $418 million in the prior-year quarter.

Quarterly Revenues & Expenses RiseTotal segment revenues were $1.26 billion, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.39%. The metric rose from $978 million in the year-ago quarter.

Total expenses for combined segments rose 27.4% year over year to $534 million in the reported quarter.

AUM Balance RisesFee-generating AUM increased 40% on a year-over-year basis to $836 billion. The rise was driven by strong capital formation across institutional and global wealth channels, $65 billion from Athora’s acquisition of Pension Insurance Corporation and $42 billion from a fee basis adjustment related to Redding Ridge, partially offset by outflows and realization activity.

As of March 31, 2026, total AUM was $1.03 trillion, up 31% on a year-over-year basis. Total AUM benefited from $222 billion of inflows from Asset Management and $78 billion of gross inflows from Retirement Services, as well as mark-to-market appreciation. This was partially offset by $64 billion of outflows, primarily driven by normal course run-off at Athene, and $26 billion of realization activity.

Capital & Liquidity PositionAs of March 31, 2026, Apollo Global had cash and cash equivalents of $3.56 billion, and debt of $6.26 billion.

Capital Distribution UpdateThe company announced a quarterly cash dividend of 56.25 cents per share with its earnings release. This dividend will be paid out on May 29, 2026, to shareholders of record as of May 19.

Apollo Global repurchased $866 million of shares in the first quarter, including shares bought to substantially offset dilution from seasonally elevated share issuances under equity incentive plans and opportunistic share repurchases. Over the last 12 months, the company repurchased $1.5 billion of common stock and distributed more than $1 billion of common stock dividends.

How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?It turns out, estimates revision have trended downward during the past month.

VGM ScoresCurrently, Apollo Global Management has a subpar Growth Score of D, a score with the same score on the momentum front. Charting a somewhat similar path, the stock has a score of C on the value side, putting it in the middle 20% for this investment strategy.

Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of D. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.

OutlookEstimates have been broadly trending downward for the stock, and the magnitude of these revisions indicates a downward shift. It's no surprise Apollo Global Management has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). We expect a below average return from the stock in the next few months.

Performance of an Industry PlayerApollo Global Management is part of the Zacks Financial - Investment Management industry. Over the past month, T. Rowe Price (TROW - Free Report) , a stock from the same industry, has gained 3.3%. The company reported its results for the quarter ended March 2026 more than a month ago.

T. Rowe reported revenues of $1.86 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +5.3%. EPS of $2.52 for the same period compares with $2.23 a year ago.

T. Rowe is expected to post earnings of $2.31 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +3.1%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed +0.2%.

The overall direction and magnitude of estimate revisions translate into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for T. Rowe. Also, the stock has a VGM Score of B.

Initial Investment to Accelerate Anthropic’s Compute Capacity as Part of Broader Global AI Infrastructure Platform June 09, 2026 09:00 ET  | Source: Apollo Global Management, Inc.

NEW YORK, June 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Apollo (NYSE: APO) today announced that Apollo-managed funds and affiliates are leading an initial $35 billion capital solution as part of Broadcom’s new AI XPV Platform (the “Platform”), in partnership with Blackstone (NYSE: BX) and leading global banks. The Platform is designed to enable over 20GW in compute capacity for leading frontier AI labs through 2028. The initial transaction is the product of a deeply collaborative relationship between Apollo and Broadcom, designed to deliver committed, certain capital across a multi-year draw schedule. It will facilitate Anthropic's previously announced capacity expansion of more than 1GW of compute infrastructure for training and inference starting in mid-2026.

The Platform represents a new model for mobilizing institutional capital at the scale required to meet the infrastructure demands of AI innovation, pairing some of the world's most advanced silicon and networking solutions with long-term, flexible capital to accelerate compute deployment across the frontier AI ecosystem. Apollo and Blackstone's participation as primary capital partners reflects the growing role that private capital is playing in financing the digital infrastructure buildout underpinning the broader Global Industrial Renaissance.

Apollo Partner Jamshid Ehsani said, “Broadcom and Anthropic are world-class companies operating at the frontier of technological innovation, and we are proud to have led the largest private financing ever executed. Committing significant investment grade capital as a principal investor alongside our partners, this transaction reflects the scale and flexibility of Apollo's balance sheet and the power of our integrated platform across High-Grade Capital Solutions, Apollo Capital Solutions and ATLAS SP Partners to structure a solution that met the needs of every party involved. AI compute is rapidly emerging as one of the most compelling new asset classes in finance, characterized by contracted cash flows, mission-critical utility and a supply-demand dynamic that continues to intensify. As hyperscalers and frontier AI labs work to secure the computing power necessary to train and deploy next-generation models, the demand for flexible, large-scale financing requires new capital solutions. We look forward to building on this model as companies advancing AI infrastructure come to market with their most ambitious capital needs."

Won Kim, Head of Corporate Development and AI Infrastructure Partnerships at Broadcom, said, “The demand for AI compute is growing faster than traditional capital markets can accommodate, and this initial transaction, led by Apollo, demonstrates what becomes possible when world-class technology is paired with a partner of that caliber.

“Built on a deeply collaborative relationship, this transaction serves as the first pillar of the XPV Platform. We look forward to scaling it alongside Apollo, Blackstone and our broader partner group as the AI infrastructure buildout accelerates.”

Broadcom AVGO , Apollo APO , and Blackstone BX have joined forces on the AI XPV Platform, putting $35 billion to work in a first tranche to fund Anthropic's 1 GW compute expansion at Fluidstack sites, with a broader target of more than 20 gigawatts through 2028. Blackstone rose 5.34% intraday, Apollo gained 1.49%, Broadcom slipped 0.43%.

Anthropic and OpenAI are named as the initial customers. The $35 billion goes toward Anthropic's buildout first, at Fluidstack-based sites starting mid-2026, with the platform designed to keep funding rounds coming as demand scales. Broadcom will supply the XPUs and networking, while Apollo and Blackstone supply the capital, and together they aim at lowering per-token delivery costs for frontier model training and inference.

Broadcom CEO Hock Tan called it a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Apollo President Jim Zelter cited conviction in both Broadcom's technology leadership and Anthropic's frontier roadmap, while Blackstone President Jon Gray said compute demand is too big to ignore.

Apollo Global Management Co-President Scott Kleinman discusses the outlook for the private equity industry. Speaking to Bloomberg's Dani Burger on the sidelines of the SuperReturn conference in Berlin, Kleinman says longer hold periods are hurting internal rates of return (IRRs) and “folks are going to have to start capitulating for sure” on valuations.

Private equity investors should brace for a sharper divide in returns as the industry struggles with years of delayed exits, aggressive valuations and a $4 trillion backlog of unsold assets, Apollo's deputy global head of private equity Antoine Munfakh has warned.

Speaking to CNBC at the SuperReturn International conference in Berlin, Munfakh said that the average hold time for private equity assets has doubled from a historic average of around four years to almost eight years today.

That has left a $4 trillion overhang of assets waiting to be sold as sponsors face growing pressure to return capital to investors.

watch now

Munfakh said that distributions are expected to increase as the industry works through this backlog — but this may not necessarily be a positive outcome for general partners.

A pick-up in exits, he said, could expose the gap between firms that carried assets at realistic valuations and those that held valuations too high.

"It will shine a spotlight on those GPs that marked their assets conservatively and those GPs who marked their assets aggressively," Munfakh said. "We believe that will lead to a bifurcation in returns, more dispersion, and some private equity firms will struggle to raise capital going forward."

Pressed on whether return levels may need to head lower if investors want their money back, Munfakh told CNBC's Annette Weisbach: "We'll see."

"Last year was the first year in history that sponsor exits occurred at prices lower than where those assets were marked," he said.

A 'systemic failure of risk management'He said the pressure is particularly acute in the software sector, where private markets firms piled in at high valuations and high debt levels.

Software historically accounted for about 10% of global buyout volumes, but that figure has since swelled to about 40%.

"Our view is that that is a systemic failure of risk management across the asset class — to put 40% of capital into one single industry," he said.

Apollo.

Munfakh said AI would not wipe out every software company, but could lower barriers to entry, heaping pressure on growth and margins, and ultimately making some exits harder. "You can have bad deals and bad returns for good companies if you overpay, over-lever them, and price them to perfection," he said.

Apollo has taken a different path by focusing on so-called HALO assets — heavy asset, low obsolescence businesses — which he described as less vulnerable to rapid technological disruption, he added.

"We focus on using AI as a value creation lever, again buying these non-disruptible, real economy businesses… where AI is not only not a disruptive threat but really a lever for value creation," he said.

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Light & Wonder, Inc. (ASX: LNW) (“Light & Wonder,” “L&W,” “we” or the “Company”) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Light & Wonder delivered a solid start to 2026 underpinned by its highly diversified business model, continued disciplined execution across all three businesses and strong cash flow generation, while demonstrating resilience against a backdrop of macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, including tariff-related pressures. Consolidated revenue grew 2% year-over-year to $790 million, against a strong prior year period. We continue to execute against our commitment to deliver enhanced quality of earnings through recurring revenue(4), with Gaming operations and iGaming as the primary growth drivers during the quarter, each delivering double-digit year-over-year revenue increases. This was further underpinned by continued operational momentum and content strength. Net income was $52 million or $0.66 per share(5), down 37% and 30% year-over-year, respectively, reflecting approximately $50 million in legal reserve contingencies associated with certain legacy legal matters, which impacted year-over-year net income and net income per share(5) growth by approximately 61% and 67%, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities was $139 million, a 25% decrease compared to the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting the payment of legal matter settlements in the quarter.

The first quarter demonstrated broad-based strength, with all three businesses delivering another quarter of segment AEBITDA growth and AEBITDA margin (“margins” or “margin”) expansion. Consolidated AEBITDA(2) grew 5% to $327 million, and Adjusted NPATA(2) was $115 million, resulting in 7% growth on a per share basis(2)(5) to $1.45 as compared to the prior year period. Adjusted Free cash flow(2) was $207 million, an 86% increase year-over-year, reflecting strong underlying cash generation across the business.

Gaming revenue increased 3% year-over-year to $512 million, driven by Gaming operations revenue, which increased 38% to $239 million and Table Products, which increased 24% to $63 million. Gaming machine sales revenue decreased 25%, primarily reflecting the timing of international and North America Video Lottery Terminal (“VLT”) shipments in the prior year period, while average selling price per unit remained resilient at around $19,700.

North American Gaming operations premium installed base grew for the 23rd consecutive quarter adding 650 units sequentially (over 2,550 on a year-over-year basis), and Grover charitable gaming (“Grover”) expanded its footprint by 660 units on a sequential basis, boosted by entry into the recently legalized Indiana market. In North America, we also shipped over 5,000 North American units this quarter.

(1) Represents business segment AEBITDA margin. Business segment AEBITDA is our primary segment measure of profit or loss under GAAP.

(2) Represents a non-GAAP financial measure. Additional information on non-GAAP financial measures presented herein is available at the end of this release.

(3) Excludes Grover charitable gaming units.

(4) Recurring revenue includes Gaming operations (inclusive of Grover), ongoing Gaming systems maintenance, table service/rental agreements, SciPlay and iGaming revenues.

(5) Per share amounts are calculated based on weighted average number of diluted shares.

iGaming once again delivered quarterly double-digit growth in revenue of 18% and AEBITDA of 22% on continuing U.S. momentum underpinned by first-party content proliferation and partner network growth. While SciPlay revenues remain challenged amid a mature social casino market, the business continued to grow both its direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) revenue and active users on a sequential basis.

Matt Wilson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Light & Wonder, said, “The first quarter of 2026 marks the beginning of the next phase of the Company’s growth trajectory: one defined by our content-centric operating model, deepening customer relationships, disciplined execution, expanding margins and enhanced capital structure. We are seeing the benefits of our continued investment in studios and content, as our franchises drive strong game performance across the portfolio. Gaming momentum remained robust, with our North American premium installed base growing for the 23rd consecutive quarter, and Grover continued its expansion into the recently legalized Indiana market. iGaming delivered another double-digit growth quarter in both revenue and AEBITDA, while SciPlay continued to expand its DTC revenue. Looking ahead, we remain focused on investing in product innovation and talent to further strengthen our recurring revenue model(1) and enhance our global competitive position as we progress toward our 2028 financial targets(2).”

Oliver Chow, Chief Financial Officer of Light & Wonder, said, “Our first quarter results reflect continued margin expansion across the businesses and scaling cash flow, driving the improving cash conversion profile of our business, while we make deliberate investments in AI and infrastructure that we believe will compound meaningfully over time to support both growth and efficiency. Our capital allocation priorities remain disciplined and unchanged: investing in high-return growth opportunities, managing our net debt leverage ratio(3) toward the lower end of our targeted range(2) and returning capital to shareholders meaningfully, having now repurchased 25% of total shares outstanding since the program’s inception(4). We maintained our net debt leverage ratio(3) within our targeted range(2) and expect to deleverage throughout 2026, supported by strong underlying business performance. Importantly, we remain committed to reducing our net debt leverage ratio(2) to below 3.0x during the first half of 2027, with the intention to accelerate share repurchases in the second quarter, creating sustainable long-term shareholder value.”

LEVERAGE, CAPITAL ALLOCATION AND BUSINESS UPDATE

Principal face value of debt outstanding(5) was $5.2 billion, translating to a net debt leverage ratio(3) of 3.5x as of March 31, 2026 or combined net debt leverage ratio(3) of 3.4x, remaining within our targeted net debt leverage ratio(2) range of 2.5x to 3.5x. Period end net debt leverage includes $137 million in litigation settlement payments. Repriced our Term Loan B in January 2026, reducing the applicable margin and resulting in a decrease in annualized interest costs of approximately $5 million. Returned $22 million of capital to shareholders through the repurchase of approximately 0.2 million CHESS Depositary Interests (“CDIs”) during the quarter. Since initiation of the prior share repurchase program in March of 2022, the Company has returned $1.9 billion to shareholders through the repurchase of 24.6 million shares or CDIs. This represents 25% of total outstanding shares prior to the commencement of the programs(4).
With approximately 79% of the authorized share repurchase program now utilized, we have remaining capacity of $314 million. We retain a flexible capital structure, which enables us to deploy balance sheet capacity when appropriate. Subject to the continuation of share repurchases(4), we are committed to deleveraging our balance sheet towards the mid-point of our targeted net debt leverage ratio range(2) over the course of FY 2026 and below 3.0x during the first half of 2027. (1) Recurring revenue includes Gaming operations (inclusive of Grover), ongoing Gaming systems maintenance, table service/rental agreements, SciPlay and iGaming revenues.

(2) Represent forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures presented on a supplemental basis. Additional information on non-GAAP financial measures presented herein is available at the end of this release.

(3) Represents a non-GAAP financial measure. Additional information on non-GAAP financial measures presented herein is available at the end of this release.

(4) Share repurchase activity is subject to necessary board approvals, capital allocation priorities and prevailing market conditions. Since inception refers to the initiation of the prior share repurchase program in March of 2022.

(5) Principal face value of debt outstanding represents outstanding principal value of debt balances that conform to the presentation found in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

LEVERAGE, CAPITAL ALLOCATION AND BUSINESS UPDATE (Continued)

FY 2026 Financial outlook update: We expect a similar shape of earnings momentum to FY 2025, weighted towards the second half of the year and reflective of our growing recurring revenue base(1), the timing of investments and the timing of capital expenditures of our customer base. Full-year Consolidated AEBITDA(2) growth is expected to be in the mid- to high-single digits(3), as we continue to execute against our long-term strategy and 2028 financial targets(3). This outlook incorporates the impact of ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, including tariff-related cost pressures and the pending increase in U.K. iGaming gambling duties.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights

First quarter consolidated revenue increased to $790 million as compared to $774 million, a 2% increase versus the prior year period. Gaming revenue grew 3%, benefiting from increases in Gaming operations and a $43 million contribution from Grover, while Table Products revenue grew 24% to $63 million. Gaming machine sales decreased 25% to $156 million, as the prior year period benefited from the timing of international and North America VLT shipments, while Gaming Systems revenue declined by 14% to $54 million, primarily due to lower hardware sales.
iGaming once again delivered double digit quarterly revenue growth, increasing 18% compared to the prior year period. SciPlay revenues decreased 7%, reflecting continued JACKPOT PARTY® Casino softness, despite resilient player monetization. DTC revenues expanded to 27% of total SciPlay revenue. Net income was $52 million as compared to $82 million, a 37% decrease from the prior year period, primarily reflecting approximately $50 million in legal reserve contingencies associated with certain legacy legal matters. Underlying operational performance remained strong, with consolidated revenue growth and AEBITDA margin expansion across all three businesses. These gains were more than offset by the legal reserve contingencies noted above and higher interest expense, reflecting incremental borrowings associated with the Grover acquisition. Net income per share(1) was $0.66, compared to $0.94 in the prior year period, a 30% decrease year-over-year. The legal reserve contingencies charge of $50 million impacted net income and net income per share(1) year-over-year growth by approximately 61% and 67%, respectively. Consolidated AEBITDA(2) was $327 million, compared to $311 million in the prior year period, a 5% increase driven by growth across all businesses, inclusive of strong segment AEBITDA margin expansion and contributions from Grover. Adjusted NPATA(2) was $115 million, as compared to $117 million in the prior year period, benefiting from revenue growth and expanded margins across all businesses, offset by higher interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted NPATA per share (EPSa)(1)(2) increased 7% to $1.45, compared to $1.35 in the prior year period. Net cash provided by operating activities was $139 million, compared to $185 million in the prior year period, primarily impacted by litigation settlement payments of $137 million(3). Adjusted Free cash flow(2) was $207 million, compared to $111 million in the prior year period, an 86% increase reflecting strong underlying earnings generation, the timing of receivable collections and lower income tax payments. Acknowledging some timing of working capital benefits, the strength of Adjusted Free cash flow(2) underscores the Company's scaling cash conversion profile over time. BUSINESS SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS

First Quarter 2026 Business Segments Key Highlights

Gaming revenue was $512 million, up 3% compared to the prior year period. Gaming operations grew $66 million, or 38%, benefiting from an increase in our North American installed base of 1,805 units(1), up 5% year-over-year to 36,306 units(1). Our North American premium installed base grew for the 23rd consecutive quarter, and now represents 56% of our total North American installed base mix(1), with a unit increase of over 2,550 units on a year-over-year basis or 650 units on a sequential basis. Our diversified portfolio of successful game franchises and the continued proliferation of our COSMIC®, COSMIC UPRIGHT, LIGHTWAVE® and HORIZON® cabinets continued to drive growth and strong performance. The increase in Gaming revenue also benefited from Table Products revenue increasing 24%, while Gaming machine sales revenue decreased by 25%, reflecting the timing of international and North America VLT shipments in the prior year period, and Gaming Systems revenue decreased by 14%, primarily due to lower hardware sales.
Grover contributed $43 million to Gaming operations revenue, driven by a sequential increase of 660 units. At period end, Grover had over 12,200 installed base units.
Gaming AEBITDA was $271 million, up 7% compared to the prior year period due to revenue growth and favorable revenue mix, leading to margin expansion of 200 basis points, inclusive of Grover contributions. SciPlay revenue was $187 million, a 7% decrease compared to the prior year period. This was driven by a decline in average monthly JACKPOT PARTY® Casino payers, partially offset by an increase in average monthly revenue per paying user. Daily Active Users, or DAU, remained relatively flat sequentially, while monetization remains a key focus, as AMRPPU(2) grew 8% year-over-year to $126.30.
AEBITDA increased 3% to $66 million, and AEBITDA margin increased by 300 basis points, primarily driven by our growing DTC platform, a key building block in SciPlay’s margin enhancement initiatives. DTC contributed $50 million, or 27%, of the total SciPlay revenue for the quarter. iGaming revenue increased 18% to $91 million, and AEBITDA increased 22% to $33 million, with AEBITDA margin expanding around 100 basis points to 36%. This marks another consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in both revenue and AEBITDA driven by continued momentum in North America underpinned by first-party content proliferation and the expansion of our partner network. Wagers processed through our iGaming platform reached a quarterly record of $29.9 billion. Capital expenditures were $74 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $61 million in the prior year period, primarily due to investments made to support Gaming operations growth, including Grover.

Forward-Looking Statements

In this press release, Light & Wonder makes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results or strategies and can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “goal,” or similar terminology. These statements are based upon current Company management (“Management”) expectations, assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of timing, future results or performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated in these statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors, including, among other things:

our inability to successfully execute our strategy; slow growth of new gaming jurisdictions, slow addition of casinos in existing jurisdictions and declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines; risks relating to foreign operations, including anti-corruption laws, fluctuations in currency rates, restrictions on the payment of dividends from earnings, restrictions on the import of products and financial instability; difficulty predicting what impact new or increased tariffs imposed by and other trade actions taken by the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions could have on our business; U.S. and international economic and industry conditions, including changes in consumer sentiment and discretionary spending, increases in benchmark interest rates and the effects of inflation; public perception of our response to environmental, social and governance (or “ESG”) issues; the effects of health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks and public perception thereof; changes in, progress under, or the elimination of our share repurchase program; level of our indebtedness, higher interest rates, availability or adequacy of cash flows and liquidity to satisfy indebtedness, other obligations or future cash needs; inability to further reduce or refinance our indebtedness; restrictions and covenants in debt agreements, including those that could result in acceleration of the maturity of our indebtedness; competition; inability to win, retain or renew, or unfavorable revisions of, existing contracts, and the inability to enter into new contracts; risks and uncertainties of ongoing changes in U.K. gaming legislation, including any new or revised licensing and taxation regimes, responsible gambling requirements and/or sanctions on unlicensed providers; inability to adapt to, and offer products that keep pace with, evolving technology, including any failure of our investment of significant resources in our R&D efforts; failure of our investments in artificial intelligence and infrastructure to achieve some or all of their intended benefits, including improved efficiency and growth; failure to retain key management and employees; unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including but not limited to acts of terrorism, war, armed conflicts or hostilities, the impact such events may have on our customers, suppliers, employees, consultants, business partners or operations, as well as management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors; changes in demand for our products and services; dependence on suppliers and manufacturers; SciPlay’s dependence on certain key providers; ownership changes and consolidation in the gaming industry; fluctuations in our results due to seasonality and other factors; the risk that any potential disruptions from the Grover acquisition will harm relationships with customers, employees and suppliers; the possibility that the Company may be unable to achieve expected financial, operational and strategic benefits of the Grover acquisition and may not be able to successfully integrate Grover into the Company’s operations; risks relating to delisting our securities from Nasdaq and transitioning to a sole primary listing on the ASX, which could negatively affect the liquidity and trading prices of our common stock or CDIs, impacts our investors’ ability to trade in our securities and our access to the capital markets and could lead to price variations and other impacts on holders of our common stock, CDIs and other securities; risks associated with having a sole primary listing on the ASX and remaining an SEC registrant, including significant compliance costs and risks of noncompliance; security and integrity of our products and systems, including the impact of any security breaches or cyber-attacks; protection of our intellectual property, inability to license third-party intellectual property and the intellectual property rights of others; reliance on or failures in information technology and other systems; litigation and other liabilities relating to our business, including litigation and liabilities relating to our contracts and licenses, our products and systems, our employees (including labor disputes), intellectual property, environmental laws and our strategic relationships; reliance on technological blocking systems; challenges or disruptions relating to the completion of the domestic migration of, and recent acquisition integrations into, our enterprise resource planning system; laws, government regulations and new or increased trade tariffs, both foreign and domestic, including those relating to gaming, data privacy and security, including with respect to the collection, storage, use, transmission and protection of personal information and other consumer data, and environmental laws, and those laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet, including online gambling; legislative interpretation and enforcement, regulatory perception and regulatory risks with respect to gaming, including Internet wagering, social gaming, prediction markets and sweepstakes; changes in tax laws or tax rulings, or the examination of our tax positions; opposition to legalized gaming or the expansion of such opposition and potential restrictions; significant opposition in some jurisdictions to interactive social gaming, including social casino gaming and how such opposition could lead these jurisdictions to adopt legislation or impose a regulatory framework to govern interactive social gaming or social casino gaming specifically, and how this could result in a prohibition on interactive social gaming or social casino gaming altogether, restrict our ability to advertise our games, or substantially increase our costs to comply with these regulations; expectations of the shift to regulated digital gaming; inability to develop successful products and services and capitalize on trends and changes in our industries, including the expansion of Internet and other forms of digital gaming; the continuing evolution of the scope of data privacy and security regulations, and our belief that the adoption of increasingly restrictive regulations in this area is likely within the U.S. and globally; incurrence of restructuring costs; goodwill impairment charges including changes in estimates or judgments related to our impairment analysis of goodwill or other intangible assets; stock price volatility; failure to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting; dependence on key executives; natural events, including natural disasters, extreme weather and other natural events related to climate change, that disrupt our operations, or those of our customers, suppliers or regulators; and expectations of growth in total consumer spending on social casino gaming. Additional information regarding risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in forward-looking statements is included from time to time in our filings with the SEC and lodgements with the ASX, including the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and its latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026 (including under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors”). Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws and ASX Listing Rules obligations, we undertake no, and expressly disclaim any, obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures: Adjusted NPAT, Adjusted NPATA, Adjusted NPATA per share (on a diluted basis) (also referred to as EPSa), Normalized EBITA, Normalized EBITDA, Consolidated AEBITDA, Grover Adjusted EBITDA, Combined AEBITDA, Consolidated AEBITDA margin, Free cash flow, Adjusted Free cash flow, Net debt, Net debt leverage ratio and Combined net debt leverage ratio (each, as described more fully below). These non-GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental disclosures. They should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements filed with the SEC and lodged with the ASX. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Following our transition to a sole primary listing on the ASX, Management introduced usage of Adjusted NPAT, Adjusted NPATA, Adjusted NPATA per share (EPSa), Normalized EBITA and Normalized EBITDA, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures and are widely used to measure the performance as well as a principal basis for valuation of gaming and other companies listed on the ASX.

Specifically, Management uses Consolidated AEBITDA to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of the Company’s operations; (ii) facilitate Management’s internal and external comparisons of the Company’s consolidated historical operating performance; and (iii) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments and operating budgets.

In addition, Management uses Consolidated AEBITDA and Consolidated AEBITDA margin to facilitate its external comparisons of the Company’s consolidated results to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels.

Following the closing of the Grover acquisition, Management introduced usage of certain of these non-GAAP financial measures on a “Combined” basis. Combined non-GAAP financial measures include results for both the Company and Grover on a combined basis, inclusive of periods prior to the closing of the acquisition. The Combined measures do not reflect any pro forma adjustments or other adjustments for costs related to integration activities, cost savings or other synergies that have been or may have been achieved if the business combination occurred as of the beginning of the applicable twelve-month period. We cannot assure you that such measures would not be materially different if such information were audited or that our actual results would not differ materially from the Combined measures if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of the applicable twelve-month period.

Management uses Net debt, Net debt leverage ratio and Combined net debt leverage ratio in monitoring and evaluating the Company’s overall liquidity, financial flexibility and leverage.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful as they provide Management and investors with information regarding the Company’s financial condition and operating performance that is an integral part of Management’s reporting and planning processes. In particular, Management believes Adjusted NPAT, Adjusted NPATA, Adjusted NPATA per share, Normalized EBITA and Normalized EBITDA are useful for investors because they provide investors with additional perspective on performance, as the measures eliminate the effects of, as applicable, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring, transaction, integration, certain other items, and the income tax impact on such adjustments, which Management believes are less indicative of the ongoing underlying performance of operations and are better evaluated separately. These measures are widely used to measure performance of gaming and other companies listed on the ASX.

Management believes that Consolidated AEBITDA is helpful because this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the effects of restructuring, transaction, integration or other items that Management believes are less indicative of the ongoing underlying performance of the Company’s operations (as more fully described below) and are better evaluated separately. Management believes that Free cash flow and Adjusted Free cash flow provide useful information regarding the Company’s liquidity and its ability to service debt and fund investments.

Management believes that the Combined measures are useful to investors because they provide additional information regarding the combined business of the Company and Grover across the periods being presented, allowing for more meaningful comparisons of overall liquidity, financial flexibility and leverage.

Management also believes that Free cash flow and Adjusted Free cash flow are useful for investors because they provide investors with important perspectives on the cash available for debt repayment and other strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in property and equipment, necessary license payments to support the ongoing business operations, adjustments for changes in restricted cash impacting working capital, and, in the case of Adjusted Free cash flow, further adjustments for legal settlements and strategic initiatives cash payments.

These items are uncertain, depend on various factors out of our control and could have a material impact on the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Grover Adjusted EBITDA

Grover Adjusted EBITDA, as used herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as a supplemental disclosure, is unaudited and based on preliminary estimates and assumptions, and is reconciled to Grover Charitable Gaming’s operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, as set forth in the schedule titled “Reconciliation of Grover Operating Income to Grover Adjusted EBITDA.” Grover Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements filed with the SEC and lodged with the ASX.

SOURCE Under Armour, Inc.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Under Armour, Inc. (NYSE: UAA, UA) today announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year fiscal 2026, which ended March 31, 2026. Results are reported in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). References to "constant currency" and "adjusted" results are non-GAAP financial measures; reconciliations are provided below.

"Our fiscal 2026 performance reflects the ongoing intentional steps we're taking to reset the business and restore the discipline required to operate as a best-in-class brand," said Kevin Plank, President and CEO of Under Armour. "Over the past two years, we've addressed structural and macro challenges head-on while elevating our product strategy. We're streamlining our operating model and increasing accountability in execution, driving a more controlled and predictable business."

Plank continued, "As our topline stabilizes in fiscal 2027, we are applying the same rigor that is strengthening our product engine to our storytelling capabilities. Building world-class, modern marketing excellence is now our highest priority that we believe will accelerate consumer demand and help reshape Under Armour's profit profile."

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2026 Review

Revenue decreased 1 percent to $1.2 billion (down 4 percent constant currency). North America revenue declined 7 percent to $641 million, while international revenue increased 10 percent to $539 million (up 3 percent constant currency). Within international markets, EMEA revenue increased 7 percent (down 1 percent constant currency), Asia-Pacific increased 13 percent (up 8 percent constant currency), and Latin America increased 22 percent (up 8 percent constant currency). Wholesale revenue decreased 3 percent to $748 million and direct-to-consumer (DTC) revenue increased 5 percent to $406 million. Within DTC, owned-and-operated store revenue grew 8 percent, and eCommerce revenue was flat, representing 35 percent of total DTC revenue for the quarter. By category, apparel revenue was flat at $778 million, footwear was flat at $282 million, and accessories grew 2 percent to $94 million. Gross margin declined 470 basis points to 42.0 percent, primarily due to higher tariffs, as well as higher product costs, pricing headwinds, and unfavorable regional mix, partially offset by foreign exchange gains and favorable channel mix. Excluding restructuring impacts, adjusted gross margin declined 360 basis points to 43.1 percent. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased 15 percent to $518 million, primarily reflecting lower marketing spend due to timing shifts, with most prior-year spending occurring in the second half, along with lower incentive compensation and overall expense management. Excluding $15 million in transformation expenses related to the Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan, adjusted SG&A declined 14 percent to $503 million. Restructuring charges totaled $8 million. Operating loss was $34 million. Excluding transformation and restructuring charges, adjusted operating income was $3 million. Net loss was $43 million. Adjusted net loss was $11 million, which excludes transformation and restructuring charges. Diluted loss per share was $0.10; adjusted diluted loss per share was $0.03. Inventory decreased 3 percent to $915 million. Liquidity: Cash and cash equivalents totaled $309 million at quarter-end. The company also held $605 million in restricted investments designated for the repayment of its senior notes due in June 2026. At quarter-end, $200 million of borrowings were outstanding under its $1.1 billion revolving credit facility. Full Year Fiscal 2026 Review

Revenue decreased 4 percent to $5.0 billion (down 5 percent constant currency). North America revenue decreased by 8 percent to $2.9 billion, while international revenue grew by 4 percent to $2.1 billion (flat constant currency). Within the international business, revenue increased 9 percent in EMEA (up 3 percent constant currency), declined by 5 percent in Asia-Pacific (down 6 percent constant currency), and increased 9 percent in Latin America (up 6 percent constant currency). Wholesale revenue decreased 5 percent to $2.8 billion, and DTC revenue declined 2 percent to $2.1 billion. Revenue from owned and operated stores increased 1 percent, while eCommerce revenue decreased 7 percent, and accounted for 33 percent of the total DTC business for the year. Apparel revenue decreased 2 percent to $3.4 billion; footwear revenue declined 11 percent to $1.1 billion, and accessories revenue increased 1 percent to $414 million. Gross margin decreased 240 basis points to 45.5 percent, primarily due to higher tariffs, with smaller headwinds from pricing, higher product costs, and unfavorable channel and regional mix, partially offset by positive foreign currency impacts and favorable product mix. Excluding restructuring impacts, adjusted gross margin declined 220 basis points to 45.7 percent. SG&A expenses declined 12 percent to $2.3 billion. Adjusted SG&A expenses decreased 5 percent to $2.2 billion, which excludes $99 million in litigation reserve expense and approximately $31 million in transformation costs related to our Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan. Restructuring charges were $128 million. Operating loss was $163 million. Excluding the company's litigation reserve expense, transformation expenses, and restructuring charges, adjusted operating income was $107 million. Net loss was $496 million, which included a $247 million valuation allowance on its U.S. federal deferred tax assets. Adjusted net income was $50 million, which excludes the litigation reserve expense, transformation and restructuring charges, and the valuation allowance. Diluted loss per share was $1.16. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.12. Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan

In the fourth quarter, the company recorded $8 million in restructuring charges, $13 million of restructuring in cost of goods sold, and $15 million in transformation-related SG&A expenses, for a total of $36 million under its Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan. To date, the company has incurred $261 million in total restructuring and transformation costs, slightly above its previous expectation of $255 million, including $109 million in cash and $152 million in non-cash charges. Following a comprehensive review, the company is initiating a targeted extension of the plan, bringing total program costs to approximately $305 million. The company expects the plan to be substantially complete by December 31, 2026.

Fiscal 2027 Outlook

Compared with fiscal 2026, key highlights of the company's fiscal 2027 outlook include:

Revenue is expected to decline slightly year over year, with a low single-digit decrease in North America partially offset by low single-digit growth in EMEA and Asia-Pacific. Gross Margin is expected to increase 220 to 270 basis points versus last year's gross margin. Approximately 150 basis points of this improvement is driven by an assumed reversal of International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") tariff costs expensed in fiscal 2026. Excluding this benefit, gross margin improvement reflects pricing actions and a more favorable channel mix, partially offset by higher tariff rates currently in place, along with supply chain headwinds related to the Middle East conflict. Including the additional transformation expenses related to the Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan, SG&A expenses are expected to decrease at a low single-digit rate. Excluding the transformation expenses, adjusted SG&A is expected to increase at a low single-digit rate. This increase reflects normalization of reduced prior year incentive compensation and benefit costs as part of the company's tariff mitigation strategy, as well as incremental marketing investment to strengthen the brand as the business stabilizes, while maintaining disciplined cost control. Operating income is expected to be in the range of $96 million to $116 million. Excluding expected transformation expenses and restructuring charges, adjusted operating income is anticipated to be $140 million to $160 million. This adjusted operating income includes an approximate $70 million benefit from the assumption that refunds from prior year IEEPA tariff expenses are realized, approximately $35 million of headwinds from the conflict in the Middle East, and approximately $30 million of incremental marketing investments. Diluted loss per share is expected to range from breakeven to $0.04. Excluding anticipated transformation expenses and restructuring charges, adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to range from $0.08 to $0.12, reflecting continued investment and external cost pressures, partially offset by the benefit of tariff-related refunds. This also incorporates an anticipated effective tax rate considerably higher than the prior year, due to unfavorable regional mix and profitability. Conference Call and Webcast

Under Armour will hold its fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 conference call today at approximately 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The call will stream live at https://about.underarmour.com/investor-relations/financials and will be available for replay approximately three hours after the live event.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release discusses "constant currency" and "adjusted" results, as well as the company's "adjusted" forward-looking estimates for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. Management believes this information is valuable for investors seeking to compare the company's operational results across periods, as it provides clearer insight into underlying performance by excluding these impacts. Constant currency financial data removes fluctuations caused by foreign currency exchange rates. Adjusted financial measures exclude the effects of the company's litigation reserve expense (and related insurance recoveries) and the company's Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Plan, its associated charges, and related tax effects, as well as the valuation allowance against its U.S. federal deferred tax assets. Management states that these adjustments are not essential to the company's core operations. The reconciliation of non-GAAP figures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the supplemental financial information accompanying this release. All per-share amounts are reported on a diluted basis. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation; they should be considered alongside the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, the company's non-GAAP financial information may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

Under Armour, Inc. showed minimal turnaround progress in Q4. Concerningly, UA expects revenues to continue trending downward in FY2027. Underlying gross margin progress is offset by other weaknesses. I estimate UA stock to have -27% downside to $3.56.

Mueller Water Products (MWA - Free Report) could be a solid choice for investors given its recent upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). An upward trend in earnings estimates -- one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices -- has triggered this rating change.

A company's changing earnings picture is at the core of the Zacks rating. The system tracks the Zacks Consensus Estimate -- the consensus measure of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock -- for the current and following years.

Since a changing earnings picture is a powerful factor influencing near-term stock price movements, the Zacks rating system is very useful for individual investors. They may find it difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts, as these are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.

Therefore, the Zacks rating upgrade for Mueller Water Products basically reflects positivity about its earnings outlook that could translate into buying pressure and an increase in its stock price.

Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock PricesThe change in a company's future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, and the near-term price movement of its stock are proven to be strongly correlated. That's partly because of the influence of institutional investors that use earnings and earnings estimates for calculating the fair value of a company's shares. An increase or decrease in earnings estimates in their valuation models simply results in higher or lower fair value for a stock, and institutional investors typically buy or sell it. Their bulk investment action then leads to price movement for the stock.

For Mueller Water Products, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade fundamentally mean an improvement in the company's underlying business. And investors' appreciation of this improving business trend should push the stock higher.

Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate RevisionsEmpirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock movements, so it could be truly rewarding if such revisions are tracked for making an investment decision. Here is where the tried-and-tested Zacks Rank stock-rating system plays an important role, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.

The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.

Earnings Estimate Revisions for Mueller Water ProductsThis maker of fire hydrants, pipes and water valves is expected to earn $1.45 per share for the fiscal year ending September 2026, which represents no year-over-year change.

Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Mueller Water Products. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 3.3%.

Bottom LineUnlike the overly optimistic Wall Street analysts whose rating systems tend to be weighted toward favorable recommendations, the Zacks rating system maintains an equal proportion of "buy" and "sell" ratings for its entire universe of more than 4,000 stocks at any point in time. Irrespective of market conditions, only the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks get a "Strong Buy" rating and the next 15% get a "Buy" rating. So, the placement of a stock in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks indicates its superior earnings estimate revision feature, making it a solid candidate for producing market-beating returns in the near term.

On Feb. 25, 2026, Gregg C. Sengstack, a Director of Mueller Water Products (MWA 0.04%), reported the purchase of 25,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $29.58 per share, as disclosed in this SEC Form 4 filing.

Key questionsHow does this transaction affect Gregg C. Sengstack's position in Mueller Water Products?
This filing establishes a new direct holding of 25,000 common shares. No previous direct or indirect holdings were reported prior to this purchase, meaning this represents Sengstack's entire personal stake in the company.Does this purchase represent a material increase in insider ownership?
At approximately 0.016% of outstanding shares, the acquisition represents a small fractional interest in the company. However, the dollar commitment — nearly $740,000 — is meaningful at the individual level, and the fact that it establishes a brand-new position adds to its significance.Is there evidence of indirect or derivative exposure related to this transaction?
No indirect holdings or derivative securities were reported in connection with this purchase. All shares are held directly.What is the market and valuation context for this acquisition?
The purchase followed a roughly 19% stock price appreciation over the prior year (as of Feb. 26, 2026), and shares were priced near recent highs at the time of the transaction.Company overviewMetricValuePrice (as of market close 3/23/26)$27.90Market capitalization$4.3 billionRevenue (TTM)$1.4 billionNet income (TTM)$199.6 million1-year return*3.95%* 1-year performance is calculated using March 23, 2026, as the reference date.

Company snapshotMueller Water Products, Inc. is a leading supplier of water infrastructure products and services.

Manufactures and sells valves, hydrants, pipe repair products, and water metering and leak detection technologies for water and gas systems.Generates revenue primarily through product sales and service contracts, with a business model focused on infrastructure and technology solutions for water transmission and distribution.Main customers include municipalities and entities in the residential and non-residential construction sectors across North America and select international markets.What this transaction means for investorsWhen a company director puts nearly $740,000 of their own money into a stock — especially as a brand-new position — it's worth paying attention. Sengstack bought shares at current prices on the open market, which signals genuine conviction in Mueller Water Products' outlook.

Water infrastructure is a sector that doesn't generate many headlines, but it benefits from durable, long-term tailwinds. The U.S. has an aging water system in serious need of upgrades, and municipalities across North America are steadily increasing capital expenditures to modernize pipes, meters, and distribution networks. Mueller sits squarely in the middle of that spending cycle — the company's hydrants, valves, and smart metering technologies are the kind of products utilities budget for year after year.

This isn’t a huge purchase relative to the size of the company. At just 0.016% of outstanding shares, the purchase barely moves the needle on overall insider ownership. But the fact that Sengstack is buying after a nearly 20% run-up in the stock means he’s paying up for the position rather than scooping up a bargain. In my opinion, that makes this purchase more interesting than the average insider transaction. And thanks to the stock’s recent pullback, investors today can buy Mueller shares for less than what Sengstack paid just a few weeks ago.

For investors interested in steady, infrastructure-driven businesses with exposure to water utility spending -- a theme that tends to hold up even in slower economic environments -- Mueller Water Products is worth a closer look. Those who prefer broader sector exposure might also consider ETFs like the Invesco Water Resources ETF (PHO +0.94%) or the First Trust Water ETF (FIW +1.22%), which include MWA alongside other water infrastructure names.

On April 20, 2026, Mueller Water Products Inc MWA shares fell 5.3% to close at $27.53. The stock has experienced a 52-week high of $31.00 and a low of $22.74, reflecting some volatility in its price performance.

GF Value™ verdict: The current price of $27.53 is 17.9% above the GF Value™ estimate of $23.36.GF Score™ of 94/100 indicates a strong overall rating, suggesting that MWA has favorable long-term potential.Insiders have been active, with $0.7M in purchases and $0.6M in sales over the last three months, reflecting some confidence in the stock. Is MWA Overvalued or Undervalued? The current trading price of Mueller Water Products Inc at $27.53 is 17.9% above its GF Value™ estimate of $23.36. This indicates that the stock is currently overvalued. The GF Valuation label describes the stock as "Modestly Overvalued," suggesting that there may be limited upside potential in the short term. Investors may want to consider the margin of safety when evaluating their positions; purchasing shares at a price significantly above intrinsic value can increase risk. GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates.

Being overvalued implies that the market may have high expectations for MWA, which could be challenging to meet in the near future. Investors should remain cautious, especially in light of the stock's recent price decline.

How Does MWA's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 21.7x 27.0x Forward P/E 19.1x N/A Currently, MWA's P/E (TTM) of 21.7x is significantly below its 5-year median P/E of 27.0x. This suggests that the stock is trading at a lower valuation relative to its historical norms. The forward P/E of 19.1x also indicates expectations of growth moving forward. However, this analysis of P/E aligns with the GF Value™ verdict that MWA is overvalued, given the current price is still higher than the GF Value™ estimate.

What Does MWA's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 94 Financial Strength 8/10 Profitability 9/10 Growth 9/10 Valuation 6/10 Momentum 8/10 Mueller Water Products Inc has a remarkable GF Score™ of 94/100, indicating strong fundamentals and potential for long-term returns. The highest ratings are seen in Profitability and Growth, both scoring 9/10, suggesting robust earnings and expansion prospects. Conversely, the Valuation rank of 6/10 reflects the current market price relative to its intrinsic value, supporting the notion of being modestly overvalued. Overall, the scores suggest that while MWA has strong operational metrics, current valuation may not fully reflect its growth potential.

What Are Insiders Doing with MWA Stock? Recent insider activity for Mueller Water Products Inc shows a mixture of buying and selling, with insiders purchasing $0.7M worth of shares while selling $0.6M in the last three months. This pattern of buying indicates some level of confidence in the company's future performance among insiders. However, the selling could also suggest that insiders are looking to capitalize on current valuations. Investors may interpret this activity as a sign of cautious optimism, reflecting both confidence and a desire to realize gains.

What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ assessment, Mueller Water Products Inc is currently overvalued with a price that exceeds the intrinsic value estimate. Investors may need to exercise caution and consider the potential risks associated with purchasing shares at this premium valuation level.

Mueller Water Products (MWA - Free Report) reported $384.4 million in revenue for the quarter ended March 2026, representing a year-over-year increase of 5.5%. EPS of $0.40 for the same period compares to $0.34 a year ago.

The reported revenue represents a surprise of +1.65% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $378.15 million. With the consensus EPS estimate being $0.38, the EPS surprise was +6.67%.

While investors scrutinize revenue and earnings changes year-over-year and how they compare with Wall Street expectations to determine their next move, some key metrics always offer a more accurate picture of a company's financial health.

As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.

Here is how Mueller Water Products performed in the just reported quarter in terms of the metrics most widely monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts:

Net Sales- Water Management Solutions: $166.1 million compared to the $156 million average estimate based on two analysts. The reported number represents a change of +12.2% year over year.Net Sales- Water Flow Solutions: $218.3 million versus $222.5 million estimated by two analysts on average. Compared to the year-ago quarter, this number represents a +1% change.Adjusted operating income (loss)- Water Management Solutions: $35.5 million compared to the $33 million average estimate based on two analysts.Adjusted operating income (loss)- Water Flow Solutions: $65.2 million versus the two-analyst average estimate of $61.5 million.View all Key Company Metrics for Mueller Water Products here>>>

Shares of Mueller Water Products have returned -1.9% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +9.5% change. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), indicating that it could perform in line with the broader market in the near term.

Investors seek growth stocks to capitalize on above-average growth in financials that help these securities grab the market's attention and produce exceptional returns. But finding a great growth stock is not easy at all.

That's because, these stocks usually carry above-average risk and volatility. In fact, betting on a stock for which the growth story is actually over or nearing its end could lead to significant loss.

However, the task of finding cutting-edge growth stocks is made easy with the help of the Zacks Growth Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which looks beyond the traditional growth attributes to analyze a company's real growth prospects.

Mueller Water Products (MWA - Free Report) is one such stock that our proprietary system currently recommends. The company not only has a favorable Growth Score, but also carries a top Zacks Rank.

Studies have shown that stocks with the best growth features consistently outperform the market. And for stocks that have a combination of a Growth Score of A or B and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy), returns are even better.

While there are numerous reasons why the stock of this maker of fire hydrants, pipes and water valves is a great growth pick right now, we have highlighted three of the most important factors below:

Earnings GrowthArguably nothing is more important than earnings growth, as surging profit levels is what most investors are after. For growth investors, double-digit earnings growth is highly preferable, as it is often perceived as an indication of strong prospects (and stock price gains) for the company under consideration.

While the historical EPS growth rate for Mueller Water Products is 22.8%, investors should actually focus on the projected growth. The company's EPS is expected to grow 11.5% this year, crushing the industry average, which calls for EPS growth of 11.1%.

Cash Flow GrowthWhile cash is the lifeblood of any business, higher-than-average cash flow growth is more important and beneficial for growth-oriented companies than for mature companies. That's because, growth in cash flow enables these companies to expand their businesses without depending on expensive outside funds.

Right now, year-over-year cash flow growth for Mueller Water Products is 16.7%, which is higher than many of its peers. In fact, the rate compares to the industry average of 5.6%.

While investors should actually consider the current cash flow growth, it's worth taking a look at the historical rate too for putting the current reading into proper perspective. The company's annualized cash flow growth rate has been 12.5% over the past 3-5 years versus the industry average of 9.1%.

Promising Earnings Estimate RevisionsSuperiority of a stock in terms of the metrics outlined above can be further validated by looking at the trend in earnings estimate revisions. A positive trend is of course favorable here. Empirical research shows that there is a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.

There have been upward revisions in current-year earnings estimates for Mueller Water Products. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has surged 0.7% over the past month.

Bottom LineMueller Water Products has not only earned a Growth Score of B based on a number of factors, including the ones discussed above, but it also carries a Zacks Rank #2 because of the positive earnings estimate revisions.

You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

This combination positions Mueller Water Products well for outperformance, so growth investors may want to bet on it.

Investors might want to bet on Mueller Water Products (MWA - Free Report) , as it has been recently upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). This rating change essentially reflects an upward trend in earnings estimates -- one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.

The sole determinant of the Zacks rating is a company's changing earnings picture. The Zacks Consensus Estimate -- the consensus of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock -- for the current and following years is tracked by the system.

The power of a changing earnings picture in determining near-term stock price movements makes the Zacks rating system highly useful for individual investors, since it can be difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts. These are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.

Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock PricesThe change in a company's future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, and the near-term price movement of its stock are proven to be strongly correlated.

Let's take a closer look.

There are plenty of strategies for discovering value stocks, but we have found that pairing a strong Zacks Rank with an impressive grade in the Value category of our Style Scores system produces the best returns. The proven Zacks Rank emphasizes companies with positive estimate revision trends, and our Style Scores highlight stocks with specific traits.

Currently, Intercorp Financial Services Inc. has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy), while HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold). Investors should feel comfortable knowing that IFS likely has seen a stronger improvement to its earnings outlook than HASI has recently. But this is just one piece of the puzzle for value investors.

Value investors also try to analyze a wide range of traditional figures and metrics to help determine whether a company is undervalued at its current share price levels.

The Value category of the Style Scores system identifies undervalued companies by looking at a number of key metrics. These include the long-favored P/E ratio, P/S ratio, earnings yield, cash flow per share, and a variety of other fundamentals that help us determine a company's fair value.

IFS currently has a forward P/E ratio of 9.18, while HASI has a forward P/E of 12.82. We also note that IFS has a PEG ratio of 0.40. This popular figure is similar to the widely-used P/E ratio, but the PEG ratio also considers a company's expected EPS growth rate. HASI currently has a PEG ratio of 1.11.

Another notable valuation metric for IFS is its P/B ratio of 1.64. The P/B ratio pits a stock's market value against its book value, which is defined as total assets minus total liabilities. For comparison, HASI has a P/B of 1.8.

These are just a few of the metrics contributing to IFS's Value grade of B and HASI's Value grade of D.

IFS is currently sporting an improving earnings outlook, which makes it stick out in our Zacks Rank model. And, based on the above valuation metrics, we feel that IFS is likely the superior value option right now.
