Magnera Corp represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Magnera Corp receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 47.5/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2408 out of 7,333 stocks. MAGN's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
MAGN's quality score of 44/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -10.4% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 11.1% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of -4.0% (sector avg: 1.0%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
MAGN carries a solid value score of 79/100, pointing to an attractively priced stock relative to peers. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 50.92x, a P/B ratio of 0.47x. This score suggests reasonable compensation for the risks involved, with potential upside if the market recognizes the stock's underlying worth.
MAGN shows a solid investment score of 66/100, reflecting measured but productive capital allocation. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 140.4% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of -2.8% (sector: 0.9%). This suggests the company is investing at an appropriate level to sustain growth without overextending its balance sheet.
MAGN is currently showing below-average momentum at 33/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 140.4% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.66 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
MAGN's stability score of 43/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.66 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 186.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
Magnera Corp's short interest score of 29/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 1.66), elevated leverage (D/E: 186.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $82M (micro-cap), MAGN carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
Magnera Corp is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2408 of 7,333 overall (67th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -10.4% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of 1.2% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While MAGN currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
