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

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Apollo Global Management, Inc.:

  • Apollo Global Management, Inc. is currently in discussions to acquire Johnson & Johnson's orthopedics unit in a potential deal valued at close to $20 billion, which signals significant strategic expansion and growth opportunities for the company.
  • The stock is trading at $129.12, which is below the consensus price target of $152.15, suggesting that analysts believe the shares are undervalued and have substantial room for appreciation.
  • Major institutional investors are increasing their stakes in the company, with the California State Teachers Retirement System boosting its position by over 11,000% in the second quarter and the National Pension Service raising its holdings by 3.9%, indicating strong confidence from large capital providers.
  • The company offers a dividend yield of 1.72%, providing investors with a steady income stream while they hold the stock, which is attractive for those seeking both growth and yield.

Apollo Global Management
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Apollo Global Management, Inc. for these reasons:

  • The company recently reported earnings per share of $2.11, which missed the consensus estimate of $2.16, and revenue of $5.57 billion fell short of the expected $5.65 billion, indicating potential challenges in meeting market expectations.
  • Short interest has increased slightly, with 23,497,787 shares shorted as of the latest record date, suggesting that some investors are betting against the stock's performance.
  • The stock has a high beta of 1.52, meaning it is more volatile than the overall market and may experience larger price swings, which could be risky for conservative investors.
  • Insider selling activity has been observed, with CFO Martin Kelly selling 3,000 shares in August 2026, which some investors may interpret as a lack of confidence in the stock's near-term prospects.
  • The company's payout ratio is 82.42%, which is relatively high and may limit its ability to reinvest in growth opportunities or absorb financial shocks, potentially impacting long-term sustainability.
