  • Alcoa (AA) Shows Strong DCF Upside Despite Recent Share Gains
    January 25, 2026, 12:12 AM EST. Alcoa's stock has climbed 68.3% over the past year, yet its discounted cash flow (DCF) model indicates the shares remain undervalued by 65.9%. The DCF analysis, which projects future free cash flows and discounts them to present value, values Alcoa at roughly $182.55 per share compared to the current price of $62.21. Despite a recent rally fueled by shifting investor sentiment towards materials and aluminum stocks, Alcoa trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 14.08, well below the metals and mining industry's average of 27.06. This suggests the market may still underestimate the company's growth potential and inherent value, making Alcoa a potentially attractive investment opportunity.
