As of the October 19, 2026 close, KMT finished 9.04% below its 150-day moving average ($33.85) and 10.39% below its 200-day moving average ($34.36). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is KMT overbought or oversold?
At the October 19, 2026 close, KMT's RSI(14) was 42.7, in neutral territory (between 30 and 70). The MACD histogram was negative, so short-term momentum leaned bearish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, KMT has $95.8M in cash with $763.7M in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. Free cash flow is running at -$171.9M, which bears watching. Negative free cash flow can be acceptable during heavy investment periods but needs to improve over time. Return on equity stands at 23.8%, which is strong for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. Return on assets of 10.4% further supports the picture of efficient asset utilization. Revenue has been uneven over recent years, ranging from $2.08B to $2.36B.
The debt-to-cash ratio suggests meaningful leverage on the balance sheet, a factor worth monitoring if credit conditions tighten. Negative free cash flow means the company is currently spending more than it generates, which may require future fundraising or debt if the trend continues. These risk factors are not exhaustive — macroeconomic shifts, regulatory changes, and competitive dynamics can all influence Kennametal Inc.'s trajectory.
