ALTG currently has no meaningful P/E ratio, which typically signals that the company is unprofitable, near breakeven, or emerging from a loss-making period. With a P/S ratio of 0.1x, the market is valuing the company primarily on its revenue rather than its earnings.

Looking at its own history, ALTG is currently trading cheaper than 100% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 0th percentile of its historical range, a level that has historically coincided with attractive entry points.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates ALTG's intrinsic value at $14.33 per share, against the current market price of $6.43. This implies a margin of safety of +51.57%. A meaningful cushion exists against model error, making this a reasonable risk-adjusted entry.

The Piotroski F-Score of 4/9 puts financial quality in a middling range, neither a standout strength nor an obvious red flag.

Bottom line: ALTG appears richly valued on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 33/100. At current levels the risk/reward is skewed against the buyer. A materially lower price or significant operational improvement would be needed to change the picture.

Frequently asked questions

Is ALTG overvalued?

ALTG scores 33/100 on our Smart Value Score (Grade F), a weak overall profile. The DCF also shows a positive margin of safety, so price and fundamentals line up reasonably well.

What is ALTG's fair value?

Our DCF model estimates ALTG's intrinsic value at $14.33 per share, versus the current price of $6.43, a margin of safety of +51.57%.

What P/E ratio does ALTG trade at?

The profile skews cautious, and a better price or clearer operating improvement would strengthen the case. This is research to inform your decision, not personalized financial advice.
