AI Analysis

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

I look for businesses that earn high returns on capital and sell at a discount to intrinsic value. Myers is a cyclical packaging and container maker. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, it reported revenue of $179.2M and net income of $20.0M, or diluted EPS of $0.53. That is a sharp rebound from fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-06-30, when revenue was $163.2M and net income was $9.7M, or $0.26. But one quarter does not make a moat. The longer record is uneven: fiscal Q1 2026, the quarter ended 2026-03-31, had a net loss of $1.8M; fiscal Q3 2025, the quarter ended 2025-09-30, net income was $7.1M; and full-year fiscal 2025, period ended 2025-12-31, net income was $34.9M, down from $48.9M in fiscal 2023, period ended 2023-12-31. Revenue was $825.7M in fiscal 2025 versus $836.3M in fiscal 2024, so growth has been modest. FairStock classifies it as a slow grower — shrinking: profit -1.0% a year over five years, revenue 10.1%. At the 2026-10-13 close of $30.60, FairStock's P/E is 22.84, P/B 3.75, FCF yield 8.0%, ROCE 7.63%, and debt-to-equity 1.11. FairStock's Graham Number is $15.68, giving a negative margin of safety of -95.15%. Its Piotroski F-Score is 6/9 and Altman Z-Score is 1.74, suggesting some balance-sheet caution. A beta of 0.89 and 1.74% dividend yield offer modest defense. I see improving current profits and solid free cash flow, but the price already reflects much of that, and the historical record lacks the consistency I prize.

In plain English: Myers makes plastic, metal and rubber products such as containers, pallets, bins and fuel tanks. The business has improved lately—profit rose sharply in the quarter ended 2026-06-30—but its longer record is uneven and it carries meaningful debt. At the 2026-10-13 closing price of $30.60, the stock looks expensive relative to the company’s accounting value and cash generation, even though cash flow itself is decent.
