MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

AON
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Aon plc:

  • Aon plc is currently trading at $305.13, which is near its 52-week low of $302.44, offering a potential entry point for investors given that the consensus price target from analysts is significantly higher at approximately $399.12, suggesting substantial upside potential.
  • The company recently raised $13.5 billion from a bond sale to fund the acquisition of USI, a move that drew $65 billion in orders, indicating strong market confidence in Aon plc's strategic growth plans and ability to execute large-scale transactions despite higher borrowing costs.
  • Aon plc has consistently beaten earnings expectations in recent quarters, such as reporting $3.81 EPS in the quarter ending July 29, 2026, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $3.80, demonstrating strong operational performance and profitability with a net margin of 22.27%.
  • With a beta of 0.66, Aon plc exhibits lower volatility compared to the broader market, making it a potentially stable investment for risk-averse investors, while still offering a dividend yield of 1.08% for income generation.
  • Analysts have recently raised price targets, with TD Cowen increasing its target to $420.00 and maintaining a "buy" rating, reflecting positive sentiment and expectations for continued growth in Aon plc's risk and wealth solutions business.

AON
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Aon plc for these reasons:

  • Wolfe Research recently downgraded Aon plc from "hold" to "strong sell" on September 12, 2026, signaling significant concerns about the company's valuation or future performance, which could weigh on the stock price.
  • The stock has experienced a significant decline, hitting a 52-week low of $302.44 in September 2026, down from a high of $382.34, indicating potential market skepticism or broader sector headwinds affecting Aon plc's shares.
  • Several institutional investors, including Waverly Advisors LLC and C WorldWide Group Holding A S, have reduced their positions in Aon plc during the second quarter of 2026, suggesting a lack of confidence among key holders in the company's near-term prospects.
  • Aon plc's debt-to-equity ratio of 1.34, combined with the recent $13.5 billion bond issuance for the USI acquisition, increases financial leverage and interest expense, which could pressure earnings if the acquisition does not generate expected synergies.
  • Despite strong earnings, the stock's price-to-earnings ratio of 16.82 may be considered high relative to its growth rate, especially if revenue growth slows, as seen in the 2.2% year-over-year revenue increase in the most recent quarter, potentially limiting further upside.
