Amentum: Stock Down, Setup Improving, Growth Potential

  • Recent defense spin-off Amentum Holdings, Inc. is a stable business with growing revenue and free cash flow trading at 8.5x forward earnings. DOGE worries and normal spin-off overhangs have weighed on the stock, as well as the recent broad market sell-off. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has revealed plans for a $1tr defense budget, and RemainCo Jacobs has completed its planned divestiture, removing some selling pressure.
