Sign in →6. Amalgamated Financial Corp. (AMAL)
P/E: 12.00 | Earnings yield: 8.3% | 52w drawdown: 6.2%
FCF yield is 10.9%, the highest cash generation rate in the screener, while the earnings yield is 8.3% and revenue grew 4.4% year-over-year. The stock trades at 1.5× book with a shareholder yield of 2.6% and a normalized 10-year P/E of 15.7×, implying 31% upside to historical valuation alone before layering in the FCF dynamic.
Insiders added $505,000 net (130,376 shares) in the last six months, with Lynne P. Fox, Scott Stoll, and Royce A. Wells filing Form 4s on May 22. News flags rising net interest margins and options volatility as the two variables shifting the investment narrative, while analysts price 11% upside to $46.
Short interest is 5.2%, and the 6% drawdown is the shallowest in the list, which means the entry setup here trades momentum for valuation; you are paying closer to fair value on a relative basis. Debt-to-equity is 10.2%, and next earnings on July 23 will test whether margin expansion can accelerate revenue growth above the 4% baseline.
7. EQT Corporation (EQT)
P/E: 10.99 | Earnings yield: 9.1% | 52w drawdown: 15.1%
Revenue grew 60.0% year-over-year, the fastest organic expansion in the screener, while the earnings yield is 9.1% and FCF yield is 7.8%. The stock trades at 1.4× book with EV/EBITDA at 5.9×, the second-lowest enterprise multiple here, and ROIC is 9.2% despite the leverage.
Insiders added $3.3 million net (583,874 shares) over six months, with VICKY A BAILEY adding on April 29, Lesley Evancho on April 28, and Richard A Duran on April 28. A Virginia tax ruling adds a new angle to the valuation story, lowering effective tax drag on Appalachian production and pulling forward cash flow realization.
The normalized 10-year P/E is 18.7×, implying the stock has historically traded 70% above today's 11× multiple; that gap reflects either a permanent commodity discount or a cyclical trough. Debt-to-equity is 25.2%, and the setup here is betting 60% revenue growth converts to sustainable margin before the capital structure tightens. Next earnings on July 21 will clarify whether the Virginia ruling flows through to guidance.
8. Banc of California, Inc. (BANC)
P/E: 14.47 | Earnings yield: 6.9% | 52w drawdown: 13.0%
FCF yield is 8.1% while the stock trades at 0.95× book, the only name below book value in the list. Revenue grew 11.9% year-over-year, and the shareholder yield is 6.4%, the second-highest return of cash to equity after REGN. The earnings yield is 6.9%, 454 basis points above the 10-year normalized P/E.
Insiders sold 12.6 million net shares over six months (92.1% of transactions were sells versus 1.8% buys), the heaviest net selling in the screener. Randall J. Erickson, Michael C Voinovich, and Edward Muransky all filed sales in May, and the 1.0 insider activity score flags distribution, not accumulation.
Short interest is 7.0%, the highest in the list, and debt-to-equity is 1.02, which pairs California geographic concentration with elevated leverage in a regional bank facing analyst reassessment. Next earnings on July 22 will test whether the below-book valuation is a contrarian entry or a structural markdown.
What to Watch
- July 21–23: EQT, Newmont, Amalgamated, and Banc of California report earnings across three consecutive days; revenue growth sustainability (EQT at 60%, BANC at 12%) and margin conversion (AMAL's FCF yield at 11%) will clarify whether the valuation compression is cyclical or structural.
- May 29: If the Fed's June FOMC minutes lean dovish, the 10.9–6.2% FCF yield spread across AMAL, BANC, and EQT tightens the relative value case for levered financials and energy over gold and pharma.
- Gold demand: Modi's "stop buying for a year" directive and the Trump Iran delay are near-term sentiment headwinds for GDX and NEM; watch physical premiums in Shanghai and ETF flows for confirmation that the 27% drawdown is a durable entry or a macro rotation signal.
- Pipeline updates: REGN and INCY news cycles around R&D partnerships and AI-driven drug discovery are re-pricing long-term optionality; any Phase 3 readout or collaboration announcement from either name will test whether the 22% and 14% drawdowns are earnings-trough entries or growth-deceleration exits.
