Recent News
On February 2–3, 2026 Allient announced attendance at UAV Technology USA 2026, identifying unmanned systems as a target application for motion and control products. In late March 2026 the company filed an expanded omnibus shelf registration covering equity and debt instruments, and closed several older employee‑plan shelf registrations.
Technical Analysis
ADX at 21.99 indicates an emerging trend; directional indicators show DI+ 23.64 increasing and DI‑ 20.17 decreasing, a bullish directional setup that aligns with recent upside momentum and supports a near-term positive price bias.
MACD sits at 1.51, increasing, and trades above its signal line at 0.44; that crossover confirms bullish momentum and reinforces short‑term directional conviction toward higher prices.
MRO reads 25.17 and is increasing; because MRO is positive, the model shows the price currently above the target and carries mean‑reversion pressure, implying a heightened chance of a corrective pullback from elevated levels.
RSI at 54.75 and rising shows neutral-to-mild bullish strength rather than overbought conditions, allowing momentum to continue without immediate exhaustion.
Price structural context favors buyers: close $70.52 sits above the 20‑day average $64.52 and well above the 200‑day average $53.07, and the 12‑day EMA ($66.93) trends upward. The stock trades just above the 1× upper Bollinger band ($70.30), indicating stretched near‑term positioning that could prompt consolidation back toward the mid‑band or the superTrend lower support at $62.93.
Volume has fallen below multi‑day averages (today’s volume 125,771 versus 10‑day avg 182,328 and 50‑/200‑day averages near 187,547/183,026), suggesting recent moves lack heavy participation and increasing the probability that follow‑through requires renewed volume.
Fundamental Analysis
Total revenue for the year ending 2025‑12‑31 reached $143,354,000 with reported net income $6,383,000 and operating cash flow $9,504,000. YoY and QoQ dynamics show mixed signals: reported revenue growth stands at 3.32%, revenue QoQ declined by 6.56%, and revenue year‑over‑year change is reported at -2.30%.
Profitability: gross margin measured 32.38%, roughly below the industry peer mean of 35.37% and below the industry peer median of 36.83%. Operating margin reached 8.30% and EBIT margin 7.84%; both margins sit below the industry peer mean (operating margin mean 17.17%) and the industry peer median for EBIT margin (19.35%). QoQ margin comparisons show EBIT margin down 7.22% sequentially, while EBIT margin improved 37.33% YoY.
Earnings and forward metrics: reported EPS $0.55 beat the estimate $0.45 for a surprise of +22.22%. Forward EPS stands at $0.7755 with a forward PE of 67.01. Trailing PE reads 110.67, slightly below the industry peer mean of 116.93 and above the industry peer median of 102.42.
Cash flow and leverage: cash flow margin equals 6.63% and operating cash flow runs about 1.49× reported earnings, supporting quality of earnings. Interest coverage registers 4.34, below the industry peer mean of 16.77, while cost of debt remains low at roughly 0.87%.
Capital allocation and R&D: research and development outlays totaled $9,651,000, consistent with ongoing product development in precision motion and control systems. Return on invested capital reached 4.76%, above the industry peer mean of 3.47% and the industry peer median of 4.08%, indicating a positive return on deployed capital despite margin compression versus peers.
Valuation: WMDST values the stock as fair-valued. Current market close $70.52 sits below the consensus price target mean $90.31 but above the 52‑week midpoint; price target range runs from $42.94 to $127.71, indicating heterogeneous analyst expectations. The mix of improving cash conversion, modest EPS upside, and margins below peer medians supports a fair‑value classification rather than an outright cheap or richly priced designation.
