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.

Bull Case

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

  • Aon plc shares are currently trading at $286.78, which is significantly below the consensus price target of $391.00 set by analysts, suggesting substantial upside potential for investors who believe the market has overreacted to recent negative news.
  • The company demonstrated strong financial performance in its most recent quarter, reporting earnings per share of $3.81, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $3.80, while maintaining a high return on equity of 42.13% and a net margin of 22.27%.
  • Recent institutional activity indicates growing confidence, with major investors like Ninety One UK Ltd increasing their stake by 419.8% and the State of Alaska Department of Revenue boosting its position by 740.2% in the third quarter, signaling strong institutional support.
  • Aon plc offers a stable income stream with a dividend yield of 1.19% and a low payout ratio of 18.08%, indicating that the company retains the majority of its earnings for reinvestment while still providing consistent returns to shareholders.
  • The stock exhibits lower volatility than the broader market with a beta of 0.70, making it a potentially defensive holding that may offer better risk-adjusted returns during periods of market uncertainty.

AON
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • Several prominent financial institutions have recently lowered their price targets, including Cantor Fitzgerald cutting its target from $433.00 to $400.00 and Keefe Bruyette reducing its target from $417.00 to $342.00, reflecting a more cautious outlook on the company's near-term growth prospects.
  • Wolfe Research recently downgraded Aon plc from a "hold" rating to a "strong sell" rating, indicating significant concerns about the company's valuation or future performance relative to its peers in the insurance brokerage sector.
  • The stock has experienced a notable decline from its 52-week high of $382.34 to its current price of $286.78, representing a drop of over 25%, which may indicate underlying structural issues or a loss of investor confidence in the company's strategic direction.
  • Insider selling activity has been observed, with General Counsel Darren Zeidel selling a total of 10,390 shares in multiple transactions between February and July 2026, which some investors may interpret as a lack of confidence in the stock's short-term appreciation.
  • The company's revenue growth has slowed to 2.2% year-over-year in the most recent quarter, down from 6.4% in the previous quarter, suggesting potential headwinds in demand for its risk and human capital services.
