Atmus Filtration Technologies acquired Koch Filter, entering the data center filtration market with strong early results, showing 21.9% EBITDA margins in its first quarter post-acquisition. Meanwhile, Donaldson Company faced a 420 basis point drop in industrial margins year-over-year, cut its guidance, and paid a high price for Facet with no expected earnings boost until 2027. Atmus trades at a lower forward PE of 16.64x compared to Donaldson's 21.03x, despite being the faster-growing and better-performing company. Applying midpoint PE valuations suggests Atmus has an 11% upside potential, supporting a Buy rating, while Donaldson shows a 10% downside, supporting a Sell rating.
