Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (KALU): score, valuation & FAQ
Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (KALU) is an Aluminum company that scores 58.6 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a middling reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.
Its strongest graded signals are P/E (A-) and PEG (B+), while FCF (C-) rate weaker. On valuation, KALU sits about 137% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 32% next year, slowing to 4% a year by year ten.
Is KALU a good stock to buy?
Bull Rankings scores KALU 58.6 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by P/E (A-) and PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Kaiser Aluminum Corporation's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.
Why does KALU score 58.6 on Bull Rankings?
The score leans on value at 65.3 out of 100, with growth the weakest pillar at 50.0 — the three combine geometrically, so a weak one cannot be papered over by a strong one. KALU earns its highest marks on P/E (A-) and PEG (B+), and is held back by FCF (C-). Each signal is graded against sector-aware thresholds rather than one absolute bar, so KALU is measured against Aluminum peers, not against the market as a whole.
Is KALU overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $151.51, KALU sits about 137% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 32% next year, slowing to 4% a year by year ten. It trades at an 11.2x P/E (graded A-). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.
What are the main risks of investing in KALU?
Beta 1.58 implies above-market volatility — position-size to the drawdowns this name will produce in a market correction, not to its bull-case return.
