Alexander & Baldwin Inc (ALEX) is not a good buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy. The company is undergoing a privatization deal at $21.20 per share, which limits upside potential. Additionally, the financial performance has declined significantly, and there are no strong positive catalysts to justify an investment now.
The technical indicators are mixed. The MACD is below 0 and negatively contracting, suggesting bearish momentum. RSI is neutral at 50.379, and moving averages are bullish (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200). However, the stock is trading near its pivot level of 20.761, indicating limited movement potential.
The stock is trading near the privatization offer price of $21.20, which provides some price stability.
Hedge funds have significantly increased selling activity, up 778.93% last quarter.
Financial performance in Q3 2025 showed sharp declines in revenue (-18.88%), net income (-24.53%), and EPS (-23.08%).
Analysts have downgraded the stock to Neutral due to the privatization deal, with no expectation of a competing bid.
In Q3 2025, the company reported declining financials: Revenue dropped to $50.25M (-18.88% YoY), Net Income dropped to $14.34M (-24.53% YoY), and EPS dropped to 0.2 (-23.08% YoY). Gross Margin also fell to 45.17% (-5.14% YoY).
Analysts have downgraded the stock to Neutral due to the privatization deal. Alliance Global lowered the price target to $20.85 from $22, and Piper Sandler maintained a price target of $21, reflecting limited upside potential.
