PSX, HRTG, THC, CSTM and BLMN have been added to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) List on September 8, 2026.
I initiate coverage of Constellium SE with a Strong Buy rating and a $55 price target. Aerospace is my strongest growth driver, supported by recovering aircraft production, easing destocking and higher EBITDA per ton, while packaging, automotive rolled products and AS&I provide additional earnings growth. The valuation remains difficult for me to ignore, with CSTM trading at 6.54x FWD non-GAAP P/E and 5.23x FWD EV/EBITDA.
Constellium SE (CSTM) has twice raised FY2026 guidance, now targeting $980M–$1.02B Adjusted EBITDA and $300M+ free cash flow. CSTM trades at 7.4x trailing earnings and 5.4x EV/EBITDA, the lowest multiples in its peer group despite record results and active buybacks. Policy-driven tariff advantages and aerospace/auto contracts drive profitability, but commodity price lag and packaging softness present risks.
Constellium delivered record Q2 adjusted EBITDA, driven by robust aluminum pricing and disciplined execution, but faces near-term headwinds from falling commodity prices. CSTM raised guidance, expecting $980M–$1.02B in adjusted EBITDA and over $300M free cash flow, with 2028 targets now likely to be achieved ahead of schedule. I favor CSTM's quality and through-cycle economics over more levered peers, yet aluminum price volatility prompts a downgrade to Hold despite continued value.
