Materion Looking Toward The Early Stages Of A Multi-Market Recovery In 2025 (Rating Upgrade)

Summary Materion has faced two years of revenue and margin pressure from broad end-market weakness, but margins have proven resilient and volumes should start to improve in 2025. The overall outlook for 2025 is still uncertain, but aerospace/defense and semiconductor markets present strong growth opportunities, while industrial markets should also show some improvement. Auto and energy markets could disappoint in 2025, and destocking in clad strips will be a headwind for revenue and margins. I expect around 4% revenue growth in FY'25, with accelerated growth in subsequent years, driven by market rebounds and an improved value-added product portfolio. A 12x EBITDA multiple could be aggressive given derating in specialty materials, but long-term revenue growth around 6% and high single-digit FCF margins can support a fair value around $110.
