Estimated value range
The combined range = the median of the valid methods' low, central and high values; it is not a probability interval and does not cover every result. Envelope of all methods: 107.72 – 182.84 USD.
Methods computed but outside the aggregate range: Dividend discount (DDM) (a small share of earnings is paid as dividends (capital returns through buybacks): the dividend model does not describe the value and stays outside the aggregate).
Valuation assumptions are editorial choices, not measured; beta is not measured.

Memo
CRANE COMPANY (CR). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2026-09-30.
Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 2.3 bn USD in 2025; YoY growth 8.2%; net margin 12.4%; ROE 16.2%; net debt/EBITDA 1.1x.
The estimated value range is 141.13–157.02 USD per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: same basis (multiples on one peer group, not independent confirmations)); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 148.06 USD, the price of 206.38 USD leaves a potential of -28.3% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -39.4% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.
olivLaw score 43/100, methodological classification: neutral profile (score, margin of safety and method agreement together; not a judgement of the right price). Groups assessed only in part: returns. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis
- Revenue CAGR 3Y: 9.1%

In brief
Crane Company manufactures highly engineered components for aerospace, defense, space and process industry markets, organized in two reporting segments. Record aerospace demand and recent acquisitions including Druck and optek-Danulat are the focus of investor interest now.
SWOT
Strengths
- Crane holds a strong position in critical engineered components, with proprietary technology and a long record of innovation 1.
- The company has a diversified portfolio across aerospace and process industries, which reduces reliance on a single sector 1.
- Operating execution was strong in 2026, with record adjusted margins and acquisitions running ahead of expectations 3.
Weaknesses
Opportunities
Risks
- Supply chainhigh
Shortages or delays in components can halt operations and affect deliveries, especially at AAT 1.
- Costs and tariffshigh
Rising raw material prices and tariffs could compress margins if they cannot be passed on to customers 1.
- Currency and international exposuremedium
A high share of sales outside the US exposes the company to currency swings and political instability 1.
- Acquisition integrationmedium
Integrating acquired businesses can bring unplanned costs and delay expected synergies 1.
- Cybersecuritylow
Cyber attacks could affect order systems, customer data and operational continuity 1.
Investment thesis
What would need to be true (bull case)
- If aerospace demand stays strong, the AAT segment could keep growing above the market average, supported by key programs and aftermarket parts 13.
- Recent acquisitions could add growth and higher margins if integration follows plan, as indicated by results at the end of the second quarter of 2026 3.
- If tariff recoveries materialize in full, results could benefit from unexpected income, although these amounts remain uncertain 2.
What would break the thesis
- If raw material costs and tariffs keep rising, margins could come under pressure even as sales grow 1.
- Large acquisitions could dilute segment margins, and integration may prove more costly than expected 23.
- If demand in chemicals and other process markets stays weak, PFT growth could remain limited 23.

The business
Crane Company, founded in 1855, designs and manufactures engineered components for mission-critical applications in aerospace, defense, space and process industries. The company has two segments, Aerospace & Advanced Technologies (AAT) and Process Flow Technologies (PFT), and its strategy relies on proprietary technology, vertical expertise and complementary acquisitions 1. Net sales reached 2305.0 million USD in 2025, up 8.2% 1.
Beyond organic development, Crane is reshaping its portfolio through acquisitions: on January 1, 2026 it completed the purchase of the Druck, Panametrics and Reuter-Stokes brands from Baker Hughes and of optek-Danulat 1. These deals expand sensor and measurement capabilities across both segments, and the company has indicated that growth could accelerate if integration proceeds as planned 12.
Crane employed about 7100 people at the end of 2025, and a portion of its US workforce is represented by unions under collective agreements 1. The company completed its separation from Crane NXT in 2023 and remains an independent company listed on the NYSE under the symbol CR 1.
Segments
Aerospace & Advanced Technologies
The AAT segment supplies critical components and systems for original equipment and aftermarket customers, primarily in commercial aerospace, military aerospace, defense and space. Segment sales reached 1048.9 million USD in 2025, with the commercial market representing 61% of sales 1.
Process Flow Technologies
The PFT segment produces fluid handling equipment for critical applications in pharmaceutical, cryogenic, water and wastewater, chemical and general industrial markets. Sales were 1256.1 million USD in 2025 1, and the segment's range now also includes recent optical and measurement acquisitions 12.
Market context
Crane operates in highly competitive markets where demand depends on air traffic, defense spending and industrial investment 1. Roughly 41% of 2025 consolidated sales were generated outside the US, exposing the company to currency and geopolitical risk 1.
For 2026 management guided to total sales growth in the mid-20% range, supported by acquisitions and core growth of 5-6% 23. If aerospace demand stays solid, the AAT segment could keep outpacing its market, although supply chain delays may affect results 12.
