Is AMSC overvalued in 2026?
American Superconductor Corporation (AMSC) currently trades at $47.70 per share with a market capitalization of $2,271,106,000.00. Based on our multi-factor framework, the stock trades at a fair valuation with a Smart Value Score of 70/100. 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 15.7x, above its 5-year median of 14.7x. The PEG ratio of 0.74 suggests earnings growth is outpacing the multiple, a classic sign of undervaluation.
Looking at its own history, AMSC is currently trading more expensive than 60% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 60th percentile of its historical range, a reasonable but unremarkable position.
Our discounted cash flow model estimates AMSC's intrinsic value at $29.82 per share, against the current market price of $47.70. This implies a premium to fair value of -14.89%. 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 4/9 puts financial quality in a middling range, neither a standout strength nor an obvious red flag.
Bottom line: AMSC trades at a fair valuation on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 70/100. The valuation is defensible but offers no obvious bargain. Patience or a better entry price may reward disciplined buyers.
