Based on our multi-factor framework, the stock trades at a fair valuation with a Smart Value Score of 64/100. This score blends growth quality, financial health, and price attractiveness into a single institutional-grade read.

The stock trades at a P/E ratio of 14.6x, below its 5-year median of 30.4x. The PEG ratio of 0.71 suggests earnings growth is outpacing the multiple, a classic sign of undervaluation.

Looking at its own history, ACM is currently trading cheaper than 93% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 7th percentile of its historical range, a level that has historically coincided with attractive entry points.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates ACM's intrinsic value at $60.80 per share, against the current market price of $79.50. This implies a premium to fair value of -65.90%. The current price sits well above what projected cash flows justify, implying investors are paying for growth that has not yet materialized.

The Piotroski F-Score of 5/9 puts financial quality in a middling range, neither a standout strength nor an obvious red flag.

Bottom line: ACM trades at a fair valuation on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 64/100. The valuation is defensible but offers no obvious bargain. Patience or a better entry price may reward disciplined buyers.

Frequently asked questions

Is ACM overvalued?

ACM scores 64/100 on our Smart Value Score (Grade C+), a mixed overall profile. On valuation specifically, the DCF puts intrinsic value below the current price, so the stock is expensive on cash flow today. The score reflects growth and quality carrying it, not a cheap entry point.

What is ACM's fair value?

Our DCF model estimates ACM's intrinsic value at $60.80 per share, versus the current price of $79.50, a margin of safety of -65.90%.

ACM trades at a P/E of 14.6x on trailing twelve-month earnings, against a 5-year median of 30.4x. P/E is what you pay per dollar of profit, and sitting below its own median means the stock is cheaper than usual relative to its earnings.
