IperionX Limited (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IPX#NASDAQ">IPX</a>) shares surged Thursday after the company <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45790807/iperionx-awarded-u-s-department-of-defense-sbir-phase-iii-contract-for-up-to-us-99m" rel="noreferrer noopener">secured a major U.S. Department of Defense</a> contract to supply domestically produced titanium parts for military use.
The $99 million Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase III Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement enables the Pentagon to order titanium components directly from IperionX.
The contract permits U.S. defense agencies to commission task-specific orders as part of the &#8220;Low-Cost Domestic Titanium for Defense Applications&#8221; effort.
Early task orders will involve high-performance titanium fasteners manufactured at IperionX&#8217;s Virginia campus using proprietary technologies. The project supports skilled local jobs while advancing U.S. defense readiness.

The agreement aligns with federal priorities to boost the supply of strategic materials from domestic sources. Future task orders could include advanced aerospace parts, positioning IperionX as a long-term supplier for military-grade titanium.
&#8220;Securing this Phase III contract is a pivotal milestone for IperionX,&#8221; said Anastasios (Taso) Arima, the company&#8217;s CEO. &#8220;It validates the performance of our technologies and underscores the Department of Defense&#8217;s commitment to reshore an all-American titanium supply chain.&#8221;

ATI Signs Multi-Year Agreement With Airbus To Supply Titanium Plate, Sheet And Billet

KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Philip Gibbs downgraded ATI Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATI#NYSE">ATI</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ATI/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">from Overweight to Sector Weight</a>.
At the beginning of May, ATI reported first-quarter results, with aerospace and defense sales of $754 million, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45130989/ati-announces-first-quarter-2025-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">representing 66% of sales.</a>
Gibbs has increased ATI&#8217;s 2025 estimates, citing stronger-than-expected demand in the aerospace engine and defense markets, and has also introduced projections for 2026 based on continued growth in those sectors.
While the analyst continues to view ATI as a solid long-term cyclical growth story with meaningful exposure to aerospace and defense, the analyst notes that many near-term catalysts — such as multiple expansion following the April upgrade — have &#8220;quickly played out.&#8221;
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45523994/raytheon-boosts-us-military-defense-with-advanced-threat-tracking-radar" rel="noreferrer noopener">Raytheon Boosts US Military Defense With Advanced Threat-Tracking Radar</a>
As a result, despite the positive demand outlook, Gibbs sees a more balanced risk-reward profile in the near term.
Following the quarterly results, the analyst raised the 2025 EPS estimate to $3.07 from $2.82, aligning with ATI&#8217;s guidance of $2.87–$3.09.
Gibbs now projects EBITDA of $835 million versus prior $814 million, near the high end of the company&#8217;s $800 million–$840 million range, which remains conservative.
The company lifted its aerospace engine growth outlook to 15%–20%-plus year-over-year from 9%-plus, reflecting a richer product mix, while maintaining its low-single-digit airframe growth view, with lower titanium volumes offset by better pricing and mix.
Concerns about Russia&#8217;s potential return to the titanium market in a de-escalation scenario were eased by ATI&#8217;s new $1 billion airframe supply deal with&nbsp;&nbsp;Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>), which runs from 2026 to 2030.
Some limited pressure is expected from softer demand in China for power generation and nuclear-related sales due to trade tensions, but tariffs now appear more manageable.
Gibbs also raised 2025 free cash flow to equity to $309 million from $297 million, driven by higher EBITDA, with net capex of $240 million based on gross capex of $270 million and $30 million in customer reimbursements.
The analyst established a 2026E EPS of $3.63 and EBITDA of $937 million.
ATI Price Action: ATI shares are trading lower by 1.96% to $75.09 at publication on Tuesday.

Earnings Scheduled For May 1, 2025

ATI Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATI#NYSE">ATI</a>) shares are trading higher on Wednesday after KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Philip Gibbs upgraded it from Sector Weight to Overweight, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ATI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $55</a>.
The analyst says that although the FY25 earnings estimate is not revised, he anticipates that ATI&#8217;s guidance will incorporate sufficient offsetting factors to support its existing range of $2.80-$3.00.
Gibbs writes that the positive factors include an expectation of stronger and more consistent operational performance following issues in the second half of 2024 and a modest engine aftermarket growth forecast of +6% year-over-year (vs. some expectations of +15%-35% year-over-year).
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44962716/americans-rush-to-buy-cars-ahead-of-tariff-price-hikes-fed-beige-book-shows">Americans Rush To Buy Cars Ahead Of Tariff Price Hikes, Fed Beige Book Shows</a>
Potential negative factors include tariff effects, which the analyst says are unlikely to materialize until later in the year (if at all). ATI may also face a slowdown in airframe titanium sales (estimated -4% year-over-year in 2025).
Apart from this, the analyst says that he does not foresee the recent USW contract negotiations to have a significant impact on 2025, as there were no formal work stoppages.
Gibbs writes that he is holding off on establishing the 2026 estimates for the time being.
The 2025 earnings estimate does not currently include any profit impacts related to tariffs, as increased costs could be offset by higher sales/surcharges, adds the analyst.
For the medium term, the analyst expects ATI to gain from the ongoing multi-year increase in original equipment (OE) aerospace and defense (A&amp;D) ramp-up, increased business with Airbus and Pratt &amp; Whitney, and a strong aerospace aftermarket.
Further, the analyst adds that the Dallas-based company has strategically positioned itself to capitalize on greater opportunities in the defense sector for 2024-2025, including new contracts and applications.
In a separate release, the company disclosed that its employees have ratified a new six-year labor agreement <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44946353/ati-employees-ratify-new-six-year-agreement" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with the United Steelworkers</a>. 
The company plans to release the first quarter 2025 earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">results on May 1</a>.
Price Action: ATI shares are up 10.63% at $50.46 at the last check Wednesday.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth.

Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
