About BALL Corp

Ball makes aluminium beverage cans and related packaging for soft drink, beer and other beverage producers, with plants in the Americas, Europe and other regions. It also has an aerospace business that builds spacecraft and instruments, although it has been reshaping this part of the group. Revenue comes mainly from supplying cans under contracts with large customers, and aluminium prices and beverage demand influence results.

Trailing twelve-month revenue stands at $14.3 billion, while revenue fell by 0.5% a year over the past three years. Return on invested capital is 9%, alongside an operating margin of 10.4%. Net debt is 3.1 times EBITDA. The company pays a dividend, and the yield is 1.3%. On the X-Ray Score, it is rated 50 out of 100. The figures are a snapshot of reported results rather than a forecast.

Debt = borrowings plus lease liabilities. Cash & securities = cash, equivalents and short-term marketable securities (long-term securities are not counted, so net cash can be understated for companies like Apple). Net debt = debt minus cash & securities. Source: latest SEC 10-Q/10-K. EBIT / EV yield = operating profit divided by market cap plus net debt.
Fair value estimate
$78model spread $72 – $84
Fair +22.8% to fair value
Equal blend of three models: peer multiples, a fundamentals-adjusted multiple (growth, ROIC and margin) and a 10-year DCF scaled to the market's average. Earnings-power value (no growth) is a floor and not part of the blend. Model uncertainty is Medium, so the safety margin is 30%.

Oscillators use the usual thresholds (RSI 30/70, Stochastic 20/80, CCI ±100, Williams %R −80/−20; MACD and momentum above zero are bullish). Weekly and monthly views use closing prices only.
