Bulls say
Hillenbrand Inc has demonstrated a positive financial trajectory, highlighted by a 3% year-over-year increase in pro forma core Molding Technology Solutions (MTS) sales, exceeding forecasts by $41 million due to robust performance in both Advanced Process Solutions (APS) and MTS segments. The company's EBITDA also surpassed projections by $10 million, attributed to higher consolidated segment-level EBITDA, despite an increase in corporate expenses. Moreover, the forthcoming acquisition by Lone Star Funds at a valuation of approximately $3.8 billion signifies strong market confidence in Hillenbrand, with the acquisition price representing a multiple of 9.4x 2025 EV/EBITDA, reflecting a favorable outlook amid its strategic review process.

The company's adjusted EBITDA also decreased by 12% year-over-year, indicating challenges in sustaining profitability despite being $10 million ahead of projections. In addition, the company's backlog showed concerning trends, with the Advanced Process Solutions segment backlog decreasing by 10% year-over-year, highlighting potential future revenue challenges.
