KBR Inc. [NYSE:KBR] is flashing a current price of $24.26. On Thursday, the company’s daily low is at $23.29 as the high is reaching $23.85.

The price per sales of 0.57 and price per cash flow of 12.87. The company is also booking -0.21 earnings per share.

KBR’s next earning date is 11/03/2020. The company has price per sales of 0.57 and price per cash flow of 12.87. The company is also booking -0.21 earnings per share.

Wait and see

Holding a Market Cap of $3.32 billion, KBR Inc. has seen a trading range over the last year of $12.00-$31.92.

For the last five days, KBR is up from its last closing price. The average shares trading hands each day is 1.39M, with average 10-day volume coming in at 1.43 million.

Using a Force Index Indicator is a good way to look at how strong actual buying and selling pressure is for KBR. When we apply the Elder Force Index to KBR Inc., we are seeing an Elder Force Indicator number of 480904.56.

Recent Performance

The recent performance of the stock is another area that can tell traders how to proceed. KBR is presenting an interesting case. This can be seen in the Forward P/E ratio, which currently stands at 12.77. Moreover, the company’s enterprise value has gone from $3.91B to $3.69B quarter-over-quarter. Obviously, the company is heading in the wrong direction, but there are still opportunities for growth in the sector.

In the last quarter, KBR made a profit of 142.0 million. KBR Inc. also saw quarter revenue growth year over year of 14.78%. In addition, the company has operating cash flow of $325.0 million.

Technical Analysis

Looking at popular technical indicators, the company’s 5-day moving average is 23.48 compared to the 50-day moving average of 23.85. So, traders might want to tread carefully if they are going to bid.

The Relative Strength Index or RSI is an indicator ranging between 0 and 100 that traders use to determine if a stock is “overbought” or “oversold.” A strong uptrend tending to reach into the “overbought” status is above 70, while a downward trend will stay around the 30 mark. KBR currently holds a 9-day RSI of 63.67%, while 100-day RSI stands at 50.64%.

Another indicator we believe is worth keeping tabs on is the Moving Average Convergence Divergence or MACD. Similar to the concept of the Force Index — on the basis of price momentum — the MACD gives traders a tool to measure the turning point of a stock even during rapid fluctuations in price. Buy and sell signals are determined by a stock’s relation to the zero line, so if a stock is above a zero line for many weeks it might be a “buy.” On the other hand, if a stock is below the zero line consistently, it might be one to stay away from. Also, if the MACD line reaches a peak and dips, its momentum may be waning. KBR’s 9-day MACD is 0.72 and the company’s 100-day MACD stands at 0.29.

Inside Moves

Another area that is important to analyze is insider moves and majority shareholders. While this is not always an error-free way to tell what the future holds for a stock, you can maybe gather important information from reading the tea leaves about who is buying and selling.

The major holders for this stock are 0.86% by insiders and 97.87% by institutions. Regarding institutional holdings, Blackrock Inc. owns 11.68%, while the second top holder, Vanguard Group, Inc. (The), currently owns 9.58%.

Over the last six months, insiders have sold 2,432 with the most recent transaction from Bright William Byron Jr., President, Gov’t Solutions, with a sell at price 24.11 per share.

Conclusion

Overall, the recommended rating for KBR is Strong Buy. Currently, the company has 8 analysts watching the stock, and the average quarterly earnings estimate is 0.42. Quarterly revenue estimates are averaging 1.38B with the high estimate reaching 1.47B and the low at 1.27B.

To review, the current 1-year target estimate is sitting at 30.22, while the current price 24.26. Based on this, we expect the stock to rise considering the aforementioned fundamentals.
