What are Wall Street analysts saying about Citigroup stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Citigroup stock:
- 1. Vining Sparks analysts commented, "Most importantly, Citigroup was able to produce a return-on-tangible common equity in 1Q’18 that finally exceeded 10%. This is an important inflection point, that was obviously helped along due to the lower federal tax rate, but nonetheless begins to position Citigroup for another round of upside potential in its valuation. We have been highlighting Citigroup as a trade which was bound by its tangible book value on the lower end and a 20% premium to its tangible book value at the upper end. Now as Citigroup can sustain returns that exceed its cost of equity, we believe that its price-to-tangible book value can disconnect from this range and begin to move higher. We have increased our price target to 128% of Citigroup’s expected year-end 2018E tangible book value, with the potential to move higher if Citigroup’s ROTCE improves further." (4/16/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Citigroup underperformed the industry over the past six months. However, the company boasts an impressive earnings surprise history. It surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in each of the trailing four quarters. We believe the company’s restructuring and streamlining efforts, strategic investments in core business, lower tax rate and expense management, will likely support profitability. Moreover, expansion of wealth management business in Australia will act as a tailwind. Yet, several issues, including litigation burden, keep us apprehensive. Also, in spite of rising rates, margin remains under pressure, due to persistent decline in the company’s legacy holdings portfolio." (3/20/2018)
