Everest Group - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

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).

Should I Buy Everest Group Stock? EG Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Sunday, January 12, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Everest Group pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Everest Group
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Everest Group, Ltd.:

  • The company recently declared a dividend of $2.00 per share, which translates to an annualized dividend of $8.00, providing a yield of 2.29%. This consistent dividend payout can be attractive for income-focused investors.
  • Everest Group, Ltd. has a low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 5.54, indicating that the stock may be undervalued compared to its earnings. A lower P/E ratio can suggest a potential for price appreciation as the market corrects this valuation.
  • Institutional investors hold a significant 92.64% of the company's stock, which often indicates confidence in the company's future performance. High institutional ownership can lead to more stability in stock price and less volatility.
  • Recent insider trading activity shows that Director William F. Galtney, Jr. purchased 2,870 shares at an average price of $348.64, suggesting that insiders believe the stock is a good investment at current levels.
  • The company has a market capitalization of $15.21 billion, which positions it as a significant player in the insurance and reinsurance sectors, potentially providing stability and growth opportunities.

Everest Group
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Everest Group, Ltd. for these reasons:

  • The stock has experienced recent insider selling, including a transaction where COO James Allan Williamson sold 200 shares at an average price of $370.00. Insider selling can sometimes indicate a lack of confidence in the company's future performance.
  • With a PEG ratio of 2.69, the stock may be considered overvalued relative to its growth rate. A higher PEG ratio suggests that the stock price may not be justified by its earnings growth, which could deter growth-oriented investors.
  • The company's dividend payout ratio is currently at 12.52%, which, while sustainable, may limit the potential for future dividend increases. Investors looking for aggressive dividend growth might find this concerning.
  • The beta of 0.65 indicates that the stock is less volatile than the market, which may be a disadvantage for investors seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities. Lower volatility can mean lower potential returns in a bullish market.
  • Recent stock price fluctuations may indicate uncertainty in the market's perception of the company's future prospects, which could lead to increased risk for investors.
