Investors need to pay close attention to AGX stock based on the movements in the options market lately.
Here is how Argan (AGX) and Simpson Manufacturing (SSD) have performed compared to their sector so far this year.
AGX's Q4 EBITDA rises to $56M, and the margin expands to 21.4% as Trumbull finishes early - execution may be becoming a moat.
I am rating Argan a strong buy rating because its record $2.9Bn backlog, debt-free balance sheet and exposure to AI-driven power demand give it rare earnings visibility. AGX's growth should be driven by backlog conversion, new power plant awards, data center-related infrastructure and margin expansion from better project execution. My price target of $886 from the current price of $720 represents a 23% upside potential. The PT is not based on multiple expansions but rather EBITDA growing into it.
ALHC, AGX, CIEN, and SIMO make the cut as the top liquid stocks, each boasting strong liquidity, growth attributes and operational efficiency.
Argan is rated 'Strong Buy' as macro trends in AI and data center demand drive a robust $2.9B backlog, up from $1.4B YoY. AGX's revenue growth slowed to 12.7% YoY in Q4 2026, but I expect reacceleration as the backlog converts to revenue over the next 3+ years. Despite a 69x P/E, AGX's projected 32% revenue growth and margin expansion to 20%+ justify a fair market cap 34–88% above current levels.
