AI snapshot
Six angles, distilled from the data.
The stock is in a weak multi-month downtrend, trading below both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. It sits near the lower end of its 52-week range, which keeps the setup defensive until price can reclaim longer-term trend levels.
Street sentiment is constructive, with a Buy consensus and no Sell ratings. Recent changes skew positive: UBS upgraded to Buy in February, while several firms kept Buy or Sector Perform ratings and raised targets, suggesting the market still sees recovery potential.
The next print arrives on 2026-07-29, and the recent record has been clean with a 6/6 beat rate. Estimates point to continued growth, with 2027 EPS at 1.36876 and 2028 EPS at 1.74843, so shareholders should watch whether fee income and margins hold up.
No notable insider buying or selling in recent quarters. With no reported transactions, there is no clear discretionary signal from management activity.
Profitability is solid, led by a 38.61% ROE and 13.35% free-cash-flow yield, even though operating margin is only 3.48%. Growth is still positive, with revenue up 128.2% year over year and earnings up 10.2%, while net cash is negative by $213.4 million.
As an asset manager, St. James’s Place stands out for strong cash generation and high ROE, but its margins are thinner than many quality peers. Valuation looks moderate at 13.29x earnings, leaving it neither deeply cheap nor stretched versus the sector.
