Right now, AAMI’s stock is trading at $39.58. The technical indicators are showing a bullish pattern because the price is holding relative to both the 50-day ($36.78) and 200-day ($29.16) moving averages. This suggests the stock has been gaining momentum recently. However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 46.2 is Neutral—neither overbought nor oversold—while the MACD indicator shows a bearish short-term trend, meaning there could be some minor pullbacks before the next upward move.
Over the past year, AAMI’s stock has traded between $21.49 and $42.63, which tells us two things: First, the stock has recovered significantly from its lows. Second, the current price is near the higher end of that range, meaning big swings are less likely unless something major happens. Analysts expect modest growth ahead, with a 1-year target of $37.67 (-4.8%) and an average consensus target of $38.33 (-3.2%). Plus, with 103.64% institutional ownership and very low short interest (6.32%), it seems a notable number of investors are betting on a price decline.

Profitability Growth
An analysis of the key metrics in AAMI’s margin performance shows the company has solid control over its costs and prices. The company is successful in controlling its production costs, as shown by the gross margin of 45.52%, and it also profits well from its core operations, reflected in the 12.72% operating margin. A 29.25% EBITDA margin indicates AAMI is capable of generating strong cash flow from its operations before accounting for financing and tax strategies. All things considered, AAMI can hold onto around $16.650 in net profit for every $1 of its revenue over the last twelve months. While the business’s revenue is increasing at an aggressive rate (16.90%), investors should monitor if this pace can be sustained without eroding profit margins.
AAMI’s 157.40 M in EBITDA and 245.00 M in gross profit indicate its raw earning power, while the 89.60 M in net income reveals how effectively it converts that power into bottom-line results. The company appears to be balancing its pursuit of growth with the need to maintain profitability. Despite healthy gross margins, there is a significant difference between the company’s gross and net margins (45.52% vs. 16.65%). This is likely due to high operating expenses, interest costs, or taxes, which are key areas for investors to watch. In the future, maintaining steady or improving margins will be critical. AAMI needs to defend its pricing power and control operating costs, as this will help sustain profitability, especially if revenue growth moderates.

The mean price target is $38.33, with individual targets ranging from $30.00 – $43.00. The average target ($38.33) suggests roughly -3.2% potential downside compared to the current price ($39.58).

Financial Health
AAMIs financial data clearly shows that strengths and weaknesses can appear together. The ROE and ROA of 301.03% and 14.53%, respectively, reflect a highly efficient use of capital, often seen in fast-growing firms. The 4.12x Debt/Equity ratio (with 358.30 M in debt and 90.20 M in cash) points to the fact that AAMI has taken on a very high level of debt to fuel its operations and growth.
The Current Ratio of 1.72x and Quick Ratio of 1.72x show a solid liquidity position, able to cover its short-term liabilities. This combination of high debt and negative operating cash flow is a significant red flag. It indicates the company is burning through cash while servicing a large debt load, a high-risk situation that could lead to financial distress if not reversed quickly.

Technical Analysis Summary
CURRENT PRICE: $39.58 | TREND: BULLISH BUT SHOWS SIGNS OF SLOWING
The stock has faced downward pressure, losing -1.22% in the last 15 days. We need to analyze the technicals to see if this is a buying opportunity or a warning of further declines. Let’s break down the key levels.
Trend Strength – Still Bullish
AAMI is trading above its key moving averages, which confirms the uptrend remains intact. The 20-day SMA at $39.84 is acting as immediate dynamic support.
What This Means for Traders?
As long as AAMI holds above the 20-day SMA ($39.84), the bullish momentum could continue. However, a rapid rise can push the stock far from its averages, increasing the risk of a pullback.
Momentum Check – Is Momentum Fading?
The RSI at 46.2 is in a neutral zone, indicating balanced momentum. At the same time, the MACD histogram is negative, suggesting that the upward momentum is beginning to fade.
Trading Strategy:
This neutral RSI reading provides flexibility. Watch for a decisive MACD crossover or a break of a key support/resistance level for the next directional clue.
Bollinger Bands – Testing Key Levels
The stock is trading near the middle of its Bollinger Bands (SMA20: $39.84), with the lower band at $38.70 offering the next level of support.
Key Levels to Watch:
- Resistance: $42.63 (Recent High) → A breakout could push AAMI higher.
- Support: $39.84 (20-day SMA) → If this breaks, expect a test of $38.70.
Volume Trends – Checking for Conviction
Trading volume is near its recent average, providing neutral confirmation of the current price action.
Support & Resistance – The Trading Plan
Trading Plan:
- ✅ If AAMI holds above $39.84 → Bullish trend continues, next target $42.63.
- ⚠️ If it breaks below $39.84 → Expect a dip toward $38.70.
- 🛑 A drop below $38.70 → Could trigger a deeper correction to the 200-day SMA ($29.16).
Final Verdict – Should You Buy, Hold, or Sell?
Bottom Line: The technicals suggest the rally may be running out of steam short-term. While the long-term trend remains bullish, a correction seems plausible before the next major move. Trade carefully and wait for confirmation at key levels.
Short Selling Info
There is currently 740 K worth of short interest in AAMI, and the short ratio (or days to cover) is 2.5x. This means that at the stock’s recent average trading volume, it would take around 2 days for all short positions to be covered. This low level suggests that short sellers do not currently have significant control over the stock’s price, and the risk of a prolonged ‘short squeeze’ is relatively low.
With 6.32% of the public float sold short, a moderate percentage of the stock is being shorted, showing some bearish sentiment but not an extreme level. This level has increased recently from 582 K, suggesting a shift in bearish sentiment. With notable short interest, investors should be aware of potential volatility spikes, which could be triggered by news events that force short sellers to cover their positions.

Stock Price Statistics
When looking at the price range over the past year, the stock has seen a high of $42.63 and a low of $21.49. This wide gap tells us the stock has been through significant fluctuations, likely influenced by market sentiment or company-specific news. Currently, the 50-day moving average at $36.78 is above the 200-day moving average of $29.16. This ‘golden cross’ setup is often viewed as a bullish signal, indicating positive long-term momentum.
The stock carries a beta of 1.38x, which means it tends to move more sharply than the broader market—about 38% more volatile. Combined with a moderate 30-day annualized volatility of 28.1%, it’s clear this stock sees frequent price swings. For investors, this means potential for gains, but also higher downside risk.
