For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals.
Achieving those goals is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores, a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on popular investing methodologies, namely value, growth, and momentum. The Style Scores can help you narrow down which stocks are better for your portfolio and which ones can beat the market over the long-term.
Different than growth or momentum investors, value-focused investors are all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under what their true value is before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, and Price/Cash Flow to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Dublin, Ireland-based Adient PLC is one of the world’s largest automotive seating suppliers. Adient maintains longstanding relationships with the largest global auto original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The company’s technologies extend to virtually every area of automotive seating solutions.
ADNT is a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock, with a Value Style Score of A and VGM Score of A. Shares are currently trading at a forward P/E of 12.4X for the current fiscal year compared to the Automotive – Original Equipment industry’s P/E 14.3X. Additionally, ADNT has a PEG Ratio of 0.8 and a Price/Cash Flow ratio of 3.9X. Value investors should also note ADNT’s Price/Sales ratio of 0.1X.
A company’s earnings performance is important for value investors as well. For fiscal 2025, two analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for ADNT, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.02 to $1.86 per share.
