When trying to optimize the timing of an investment, it's critical to analyze whether the stock looks overbought or oversold, and in which direction the momentum is moving. ACM Research's stock is now priced above its 5-day and 50-day, but below its 200-day moving average, while its MACD (moving average convergence divergence) indicates that the stock's price movement momentum is strengthening. Historically, this is a positive setup in both the short and medium-term. Meanwhile, looking at the Stochastic Oscillator and RSI (relative strength index), ACM Research's stock indicates that it's likely oversold. Overall, these technical indicators don't clearly signal directional momentum. Therefore, this stock received a cumulative TA (technical analysis) score of 68.

ACM Research's most recent cash flow report has several troubling numbers, specifically Free Cash flow and Capital Expenditure. ACM Research's published free cash flow numbers were subpar and could mean that management has lost focus on achieving healthy growth. ACM Research recorded free cash flow of -1.5, which represents -79.4% growth from the previous report. Companies in the same industry and market capitalization are typically affected by this parameter by up to 7.4%. their free cash flow situation appears to be much weaker than their peers. Management needs to do a better job balancing cash flow, asset growth, and resources allocations in general. Disappointing results in free cash flow often lead to negative pressure in stock prices, so we rated their free cash flow with a score of 43. Also, ACM Research's management was ineffective in materially improving CapEx, which now sits at -10.9 and represents a -18.7% change from the previous report. This performance is all the more uninspiring relative to their peers and competitors. Its CapEx movement, therefore, received a grade of 50. That said, one metric, Net Cash Flow, stood out as strongly positive. ACM Research presents exciting net cash flow numbers for its recent financial release, illustrated by a net cash flow of 301.5, which is a change of -38.6% from the last filing. This industry-leading net cash flow momentum should reinforce broader positive momentum for its's stock price going forward. The company's net cash flow, therefore, received a grade of 62. Because of these weaknesses, their cash flow received an overall score of 50.
Parameter | Value | Change | Score |
---|---|---|---|
Net Cashflow | 301.5 | -38.6% | 62 |
Capital Expenditure | -10.9 | -18.7% | 50 |
Asset Turnover | 0.4 | -5.1% | 54 |
Free Cashflow | -1.5 | -79.4% | 43 |
The below chart describes ACM Research's performance as reflected on its cash flow with respect to its peers. While ACM Research received a cash flow score of 50, the average of its peers stands on 65.0.
