Analysis
Albany International Corp (AIN) currently trades at $62.71, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $18.40, implying the stock looks roughly 70.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Albany International Corp generated revenue of $1.2B at a net margin of -4.9%. Revenue grew 7.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -7.2%. Net debt stands at $343M. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $10.77 (bear case) to $26.03 (bull case); at $62.71, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 14% below its 52-week high and 55% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -27% fair-value upside, at -71%, AIN screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 12 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($21.62) versus Dividend Discount ($12.12). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
