Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Alta Equipment Group share price today? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s share price was $6.89 at the close on 4 November 2026. That is 5.5% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $4 and $8, and at that close it sat 69% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 1 week running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −14% while the S&P 500 moved +23%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 30 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Alta Equipment Group pay? Alta Equipment Group Inc. paid $0.23 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.06 for Mar 2025. At today's price of $6.89 that is a yield of 3.34%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Alta Equipment Group on? Alta Equipment Group is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Alta Equipment Group profitable? Alta Equipment Group Inc. posted a net loss of $8.2 M in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $83.3 M. That loss is 1.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $6.8 M. 11 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Alta Equipment Group make, and is it growing? Alta Equipment Group Inc. reported $476 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −1.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 10.9% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.8 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.8 B. FY25 revenue was $1.8 B, −2.2% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −1.9% on average, against 10.9% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −1.8%, against −2.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Alta Equipment Group keep? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s operating margin was 2.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.1 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 1.0% and 2.9%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.1 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.7 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Alta Equipment Group's profit turning into cash? Over the last 2 years, 630% of Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $33.0 M of operating cash against −$83.3 M of profit. After $40.1 M of spending on assets, free cash was −$7.1 M: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Alta Equipment Group's cash go? Alta Equipment Group Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $168 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 3.0% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $168 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Alta Equipment Group's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Alta Equipment Group Inc. has no P/E right now, because its earnings are negative. The revenue and margin sections are where a turn would show first. Measured against sales instead, the market values Alta Equipment Group Inc. at 0.1× its FY25 revenue of $1.8 B. The P/E comes back here once profit turns positive. ## Is the Alta Equipment Group business getting better or worse? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 1 measure, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. The return-on-capital line is not shown: net worth is negative, so a return on capital means nothing. The balance sheet is in distress, and this reading uses the growth lines alone. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Alta Equipment Group earn on its capital? Alta Equipment Group Inc. earned a ROE of 947% in FY25. That is up from a low of −84% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 4.9 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −4.5% net margin and 1.37× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −4.5% net margin × 1.37× asset turnover × −151.85× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 936.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 2.0% − 6.9% = −4.9 percentage points. The 6.9% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Alta Equipment Group have too much debt? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s net worth is negative: it owes more than it owns, so a debt-to-equity ratio means nothing here. Year by year, that ratio went from 5.04 in FY21 to −132.81 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Alta Equipment Group shareholding pattern? 3.9% of Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.1 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Alta Equipment Group from balance-sheet trouble? For Alta Equipment Group Inc., the Z-score is 1.41. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the danger zone. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 1.41 is inside the danger zone, so the balance sheet is a real risk. ## How does Alta Equipment Group rank in its industry? 37.4 out of 100, rank 14 of 18 in Rental & Leasing Services, with 64% of the evidence available. Alta Equipment Group Inc. scores 37.4 out of 100 against the 18 companies it is compared with in Rental & Leasing Services, ranking 14. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 12.4 + 3.9 + 9.3 + 11.8 = 37.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Alta Equipment Group compared with? Alta Equipment Group ranks 14 of 18 Rental & Leasing Services companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 37.4 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s market capitalisation is $225 M at a stock price of $6.89. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 4 November 2026). ### How is Alta Equipment Group performing? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s latest readings are below. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 1 week running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 4 November 2026). ### Will Alta Equipment Group's stock price go up? This page does not forecast Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $6.89. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 4 November 2026). ### Where is Alta Equipment Group in its business cycle? Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s FY25 operating margin was 1.3%, against a 5-year range of 1.0% to 2.9%: the low end of its own range, which is often where recoveries start. The latest quarter was 2.5%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 4 November 2026). ### What could break the Alta Equipment Group story? Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 4 November 2026). ### Is Alta Equipment Group a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Alta Equipment Group Inc.'s balance sheet is under water: its net worth is negative, so it owes more than it owns. This is a high-risk situation: shareholders can be wiped out by new shares or a restructuring before the business recovers. The main open question: whether the business can earn its way back to positive net worth before new shares or a restructuring get there first. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 4 November 2026). This is research, not advice. We’re not SEBI-registered.
