See our latest analysis for Atmus Filtration Technologies.
With the share price now at $52.25 and a 34.22% year to date share price return, Atmus is showing firm, sustained momentum as investors respond to its earnings growth profile and cash generation.
If this kind of steady industrial momentum appeals to you, it might be worth scanning fast growing stocks with high insider ownership for other under the radar names with strong alignment between management and shareholders.
But after such a strong run and only a modest gap to Wall Street targets, is Atmus still trading at a discount to its true earnings power, or is the market already pricing in the next leg of growth?
With Atmus trading at $52.25 against a narrative fair value of $55.00, the story frames today’s price as leaving room for upside while leaning on disciplined growth assumptions.
The company's push into industrial filtration (beyond automotive), both through disciplined M&A and organic new product launches, taps into the growing replacement and modernization needs of automated and digitized industrial environments, expanding the total addressable market and supporting both revenue growth and margin diversification.
Want to see the math behind that upside gap? This narrative leans on steady top line expansion, rising margins, and a punchy future earnings multiple. Curious which specific profit and revenue milestones have to line up to make that valuation work?
Result: Fair Value of $55 (UNDERVALUED)

However, this upside narrative could be derailed if replacement demand weakens faster than expected or if Cummins reduces volumes as the separation matures.

Step away from narratives and the plain price to earnings math looks more grounded than dramatic. At 21.3x earnings, Atmus trades below the Machinery industry at 25.5x and just under its 21.7x fair ratio, hinting at modest upside rather than a dramatic discount.
