AI Rating

Neutral

Erstmals geprüft am 27.07.2026 gegen den Geschäftsbericht (10-K) 2025 (eingereicht 25.02.2026) und die beiden jüngsten Quartalsberichte (10-Q, eingereicht 22.04.2026 und 22.07.2026): In den ausgewerteten SEC-Filings von Mueller Industries kommen die Begriffe „artificial intelligence“, „AI“ und „machine learning“ kein einziges Mal vor — weder als Umsatzquelle noch als operativer Einsatz noch als Risikofaktor für das eigene Geschäftsmodell. Die einzige KI-nahe Stelle im gesamten Jahresbericht ist eine Kostenaussage: Bei den Energiekosten nennt das Unternehmen als preistreibenden Faktor die „increased demand resulting from data center development“, also die zusätzliche Strom- und Gasnachfrage aus dem Rechenzentrumsbau. Das ist eine Belastung der eigenen Kostenseite, kein KI-Produkt und kein KI-Endmarkt-Erlös. Auf der Nachfrageseite spricht der Vorstandschef im Ergebnisbericht zum zweiten Quartal 2026 von anziehender Nachfrage in den „commercial, industrial and electrical markets“, ohne Rechenzentren oder KI zu nennen; ein bezifferter KI-Bezug fehlt. Nach dem Kriterienkatalog bleibt es damit bei „neutral“: Mueller Industries ist ein Verarbeiter von Kupfer, Messing und Aluminium, dessen Ergebnis an der Spanne zwischen Rohstoffeinkauf und Produktverkauf hängt, nicht an KI.

„Fuel and utility costs also have been, and will continue to be, affected by factors outside our control, such as supply and demand for fuel and utility services in both local and regional markets, including increased demand resulting from data center development."

Auch die Kraftstoff- und Energiekosten wurden und werden weiterhin von Faktoren beeinflusst, die außerhalb unserer Kontrolle liegen, etwa von Angebot und Nachfrage nach Kraftstoff- und Versorgungsleistungen auf lokalen wie regionalen Märkten, einschließlich der zusätzlichen Nachfrage aus dem Bau von Rechenzentren.

Growth Score

4 of 10 Weak growth

Ten checks against the annual reports — each one passed counts a point.

  • Revenue grows by more than 15% a year over three years 1.6% failed
  • More than 10% revenue growth is expected for the coming year 8.7% failed
  • Share count grows by less than 3% a year -0.7% passed
  • Revenue growth plus cash-flow margin add up to at least 40 ("Rule of 40") 27.3% failed
  • Gross margin at 40% or higher and without meaningful erosion 27.4% failed
  • Goodwill from acquisitions does not grow faster than revenue 9.9% failed
  • Net debt below twice EBITDA 1,343 m net cash passed
  • Operating cash flow covers the profits of the last three years 101 m passed
  • Return on capital at 15% or higher, or up versus two years ago 34.4% passed
  • Insiders hold at least 10% or are net buyers 2.1% failed

A criterion without figures counts neither as passed nor as failed; a score is only produced from 7 judgeable criteria upwards. Source: fundamental data. All ten criteria in detail

Highlighted are things our editorial team noticed: green = stands out as strong, red = deserves a closer look. No single metric is a verdict on its own — always read it in context.

What Do These Terms Mean?
EPS (Earnings Per Share):
Quarterly profit divided by the total share count — how much of the profit works out to a single share.
YoY (Year over Year):
Change versus the same quarter a year ago — this is how you compare without seasonal distortion (e.g. the holiday shopping season).
Sales:
All revenue for the quarter, before any costs are deducted — the top line of the income statement.
Net Margin:
What percentage of sales is left over as profit in the end. Negative means the company is posting a loss.
OCF (Operating Cash Flow):
The cash that actually flows into the till from the core business during the quarter — harder to dress up than book profit.
FCF (Free Cash Flow):
Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures — the money that's genuinely free to use, say for paying down debt, buybacks, or dividends.
