AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

Mr. Market is offering Eagle Materials at $163.95 as of 2026-10-13, near its 52-week low of $162.89. The company sells cement, concrete, aggregates, gypsum wallboard, and recycled paperboard. These are heavy, low-value-to-weight products, so local transport costs can give some regional protection, but cement and wallboard remain cyclical commodity businesses. In fiscal 2026, the year ended 2026-03-31, Eagle earned $423.8M on $2.3B of revenue, or $13.16 per diluted share. That was down from $463.4M and $13.77 in fiscal 2025. In the latest reported quarter, fiscal Q1 2027, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $651.0M versus $634.7M in fiscal Q1 2026, but net income fell to $102.1M from $123.4M and diluted EPS fell to $3.29 from $3.76. Revenue is holding up; profit is not. FairStock's calculations show a P/E of 12.91, P/B of 3.40, ROE of 27.03%, ROCE of 9.23%, and debt-to-equity of 1.21. The high ROE is helped by leverage, while ROCE is only moderate. A Piotroski F-Score of 8/9 is encouraging, but Altman Z of 2.26 and a 3.4% FCF yield suggest neither distress nor a deep cash bargain. The Graham Number of $117.44 gives a negative 39.60% margin of safety against the close, so the price is not cheap by that conservative measure. For a cyclical building-materials firm, I want to buy when earnings are depressed and the price is low relative to normalized earning power. Here the price is low versus its own range, but not clearly cheap versus assets. Watch whether the profit decline stabilizes.

In plain English: Eagle Materials makes cement, concrete, aggregates, gypsum wallboard, and recycled paperboard, mostly in the United States. In fiscal 2026, the year ended 2026-03-31, it earned $423.8 million on $2.3 billion of revenue, but profit slipped from the prior year and fell again in the latest quarter. At $163.95 on 2026-10-13, the price looks moderate against earnings and close to its 52-week low, but a conservative asset-value check suggests it is not a clear bargain.
