Atkore: A Buy Despite The Lawsuits, Impairment Charges, And Declining Margins

  • Atkore Inc. faces multiple challenges, including price-fixing and securities fraud lawsuits, and an impairment charge related to its HDPE business in Q2 results. Despite these issues, Atkore's stock price has declined to an attractive level, making it a buying opportunity with a 37% upside to its fair value. The PVC price-fixing case appears strong, with potential fines of up to $100M, while the securities fraud case seems less likely to succeed.
