AMTM stock is on track to open higher for a third consecutive session. On Tuesday, the stock closed up over 18% to its highest in over a year.

Brokerage Action

Morgan Stanley upgraded Amentum's stock to 'Equal Weight' from 'Underweight' while raising its price target to $35 from $20, according to TheFly.  The brokerage added that the stock's risk/reward looks more balanced now.

The firm noted that Amentum's commercial nuclear power opportunities could help offset part of its long-term 4% to 6% revenue growth gap, adding that its valuation remains relatively modest for a company with nuclear exposure.

Citizens JMP raised its price target on Amentum to $35 from $30 and reiterated an 'Outperform' rating. The firm cited solid fourth-quarter (Q4) results and CEO John Heller's view that Amentum is“well-positioned” as the government prioritizes efficiency, speed, and accountability. Citizens JMP noted that it still sees the stock as a compelling long-term appreciation opportunity.

Q4 Results

On Monday, Amentum posted earnings of $0.63 per share, ahead of the Street estimate of $0.59, according to Fiscal. Quarterly revenue came in at $3.93 billion, also beating estimates of $3.61 billion.

The company said growth was mainly driven by its Global Engineering Solutions segment, which saw revenue rise 9% on the back of new contract wins and the expansion of existing programs. Its Digital Solutions segment also posted revenue growth for the quarter.
