Hamed Khorsand has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to Dauch Corporation’s improving fundamentals and execution on its merger strategy. He notes that the second quarter, the first full period following the Dowlais merger, already shows initial merger benefits, with stronger-than-expected revenue of $2.96 billion highlighting resilient demand and expanding gross margins.

Khorsand also emphasizes that updated full-year guidance directly addresses prior investor worries around leverage and the company’s ability to generate free cash flow. With a solid liquidity position, a clear path toward deleveraging, and early synergy realization, he believes the risk-reward profile remains attractive, supporting a Buy rating while maintaining a $17 price target.
