Metal-coating leader deleveraging fast with 24% ROE and surging cash flow at a reasonable 15x — though FY2026 EPS got a one-time lift.

Revenue (FY2026) $1.65B · FY2026

The read

Quality fundamentals and an attractive price line up (~155% below fair value) — the rarer case where both the business and the entry look good.

AZZ is a leading provider of hot-dip galvanizing and metal-coating (including the Precoat Metals business), and FY2026 was a strong year operationally and financially. Revenue grew 4.6% to $1.65B with steady, high-quality margins (23.9% gross, 16.0% operating), and operating income rose a solid 12.0% to $265M. The standout is cash generation and balance-sheet repair: operating cash flow surged 110.3% to $525M, capex fell 30.3%, and the company used the cash to slash long-term debt 44.0% to $478M and grow equity 27.9% to $1.34B. Liabilities/equity improved to a healthy 0.66x. ROE is an excellent 23.7%.
