Is Alight, Inc. (ALIT) the Best AI Stock to Buy Under $10?

We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where Alight, Inc. (NYSE:ALIT) stands against other best AI stocks to buy under $10. Fears of an artificial intelligence bubble bursting appear overblown. That's the sentiment echoed on Wall Street in the aftermath of tech giants delivering better-than-expected quarterly results and reiterating investments in AI infrastructure. Increased investments in AI Infrastructure and other solutions have once again affirmed sentiments in the burgeoning segment that was the catalyst behind US markets powering to record levels last year. At the beginning of the year, investors became worried that the AI surge might collapse in the aftermath of the Chinese company DeepSeek creating a sophisticated large language model that needed less energy and funding. The news from DeepSeek caused a significant change in market sentiment and led to a decline in AI stocks that had experienced substantial increases for most of the year. Fast forward, tech giants signaling they will continue to invest in AI and cloud infrastructure is a tailwind that continues to reiterate sentiments around AI stocks. Companies ramping up investments to address capacity constraints in their cloud unit, as others ramp investments in AI-powered servers and data center assets, are a positive for the overall sector. According to AMD CEO Lisa Su, ordering patterns around everything AI remains strong, signaling people and companies are not making short-term decisions. Initially, there were concerns that companies pursuing opportunities around AI had spent far too much and too quickly to build out infrastructure and would need to go slow. Consequently, tech giants whose valuations had skyrocketed to record highs pulled back significantly as investors remained wary of their long-term outlook amid an uncertain macroeconomic environment that is crumbling amid a ferocious trade war and export controls. Continued investments in AI should be expected as companies look to strengthen their product and services portfolio while also strengthening their competitive edge. There have been concerns that heightened regulations and authorities placing guardrails could derail innovations around artificial intelligence. However, that appears not to be the case. According to Wedbush Securities global head of technology research Dan Ives, 'Innovations around AI are growing at 100 miles per hour while regulatory pressure is only growing at 35 miles an hour'. According to Ives no amount of regulation is going to change the heightened amount of spending around AI. 'The use cases are exploding and no amount of regulation is going to change it' said Ives in an interview with CNBC. Ives added: 'In terms of use cases, US commercial businesses are exploding. Right now we have 85 use cases, a year ago we had 10. I think what we are starting to see is more and more that it is across verticals healthcare financials government and retail among others.' The fact that executives from some of the biggest tech giants have denied they are cutting back spending on servers and data makes the case for why investors should pay attention to some of the AI stocks trading at highly discounted valuations. We sifted through Finviz and financial media reports to compile a list of top AI stocks trading below $10. We then selected the 13 stocks that were the most popular among elite hedge funds and that analysts were bullish on. The stocks are ranked in ascending order based on the number of hedge funds that have stakes in them, as of Q4 2024. The hedge fund data was sourced from Insider Monkey's database, which tracks the moves of over 900 elite money managers. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter's strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points ().

While Alight, Inc. (NYSE:ALIT) posted a 2% decline in revenue to $548 million in its first quarter of 2025, it was much better than the $541 million that analysts expected. In addition, its adjusted EBITDA improved to $118 million compared to $116 million last quarter as net loss shrank to $17 million from a net loss of $121 million delivered the previous quarter. Overall, ALIT ranks 2nd on our list of best AI stocks to buy under $10. While we acknowledge the potential of ALIT as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.

Alight Reports First Quarter 2025 Results

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alight, Inc. (NYSE: ALIT), a leading cloud-based human capital and technology-enabled services provider, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. 'Our first quarter performance met expectations and we are off to a strong start to the year,' said CEO Dave Guilmette. 'We continue to bolster our leading capabilities through a focus on client-centricity and delivering with excellence, including important advancements across our artificial intelligence and delivery initiatives. As our talented team navigates the evolving global environment, the mission-critical work of helping people access and utilize their benefits to remain healthy and financially secure is as important as ever.' Presentation of Results First Quarter 2025 Highlights (all comparisons are relative to first quarter 2024) Revenue decreased 2.0% to $548 million Gross profit of $171 million and gross profit margin of 31.2%, compared to $182 million and 32.6%, respectively, and adjusted gross profit of $200 million and adjusted gross profit margin of 36.5%, compared to $208 million and 37.2%, respectively Net loss improved to $17 million compared to net loss of $121 million Adjusted EBITDA improved to $118 million compared to $116 million Diluted earnings (loss) per share of $(0.03) compared to $(0.22), and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.10 compared to $0.10 per share New wins or expanded relationships with companies including US Foods, Markel and Delek Repurchased $20 million of common stock under existing share repurchase program Declared and paid a $0.04 per share dividend First Quarter 2025 Results Revenue decreased 2.0% to $548 million, as compared to $559 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to lower project revenue and net commercial activity. Recurring revenues were 94.9% of total revenue. Gross profit was $171 million, or 31.2% of revenue, compared to $182 million, or 32.6% of revenue in the prior year period. The change in gross profit was primarily due to lower revenue as noted above, partially offset by productivity savings. Selling, general and administrative expenses improved $42 million when compared to the prior year period. This was due to a reduction in compensation expenses primarily related to non-cash share-based awards, lower restructuring charges and lower professional fees incurred related to the sale and separation of the Payroll & Professional Services business. Interest expense of $22 million improved $9 million from the prior year period. Interest expense benefited from the repricing of the 2028 term loan and the $740 million debt pay down in the third quarter of 2024. The Company's loss from continuing operations before income tax benefit improved to $20 million compared to a loss from continuing operations before income tax benefit of $148 million in the prior year period. The improvement was primarily attributable to the non-operating fair value remeasurements of financial instruments and the tax receivable agreement, lower selling, general and administrative expenses, lower interest expense as a result of the debt pay down and other income recorded in conjunction with the transition services agreement entered into with the purchaser of the divested Payroll & Professional Services business. Balance Sheet Highlights As of March 31, 2025, the Company's cash and cash equivalents balance was $223 million, total debt was $2,019 million and total debt net of cash and cash equivalents was $1,796 million. Business Outlook 'We continue to benefit from a long-cycle recurring business model that has insulated us from short-term market swings as we already have 92% of projected 2025 revenue under contract. While we are not immune to the market impacts, we feel good about the operational levers within our control and have reaffirmed our outlook based on the resilience of our model and visibility today,' said Guilmette. The Company's reaffirmed 2025 outlook includes: Revenue of $2,318 million to $2,388 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $620 million to $645 million. Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.58 to $0.64. Free cash flow of $250 million to $285 million.

Alight undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information The Company refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including: Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin. Please see below for additional information and for reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance our investors' and lenders' understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. This discussion is not meant to be considered in isolation, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations, which is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and intangible amortization adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations is defined as Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations divided by revenue. Both Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations are non-GAAP financial measures used by management and our stakeholders to provide useful supplemental information that enables a better comparison of our performance across periods as well as to evaluate our core operating performance. Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations, which is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for intangible amortization and the impact of certain non-cash items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, is a non-GAAP financial measure used solely for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations is defined as Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations divided by the adjusted weighted-average number of shares of Alight Inc. common stock, diluted. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations is used by us and our investors to evaluate our core operating performance and to benchmark our operating performance against our competitors. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities net of capital expenditures. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to repay debt obligations, make strategic acquisitions and investments and for certain other activities such as dividends and stock repurchases. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as revenue less cost of services adjusted for depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by revenue. Management uses Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as key measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. We believe that presenting Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash expenses and allows a direct comparison between periods. Revenue Under Contract is an operational metric that represents management's estimate of anticipated revenue expected to be recognized in the period referenced based on available information that includes historical client contracting practices. The metric does not reflect potential future events such as unexpected client volume fluctuations, early contract terminations or early contract renewals. Our metric may differ from similar terms used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
