Description: CRS Carpenter Technology January 03, 2026
Carpenter Technology Corporation (NYSE: CRS) manufactures, fabricates, and distributes specialty metals-including titanium alloys, powder metals, stainless and alloy steels, and tool steels-through two business segments: Specialty Alloys Operations and Performance Engineered Products. The firm serves a broad customer base across aerospace, defense, medical, transportation, energy, industrial, and consumer markets, operating in North America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific, Mexico, and Canada from its headquarters in Philadelphia.
Key recent metrics indicate FY 2023 revenue of approximately $2.2 billion with an operating margin near 7%, while the aerospace segment, which accounts for roughly 35% of sales, remains sensitive to aircraft production cycles and defense spending trends. Steel and alloy price volatility, driven by global commodity supply constraints and inflationary pressures, continues to impact gross margins, and the company’s ongoing investment in additive-manufacturing capabilities aims to capture growth in high-mix, low-volume aerospace and medical applications.
For a deeper quantitative dive, the ValueRay platform provides a concise, data-rich overview of CRS’s valuation and risk profile.
