UBS 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). 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.

UBS Group
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in UBS Group AG:

UBS Group AG reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.43 for the latest quarter, significantly exceeding analysts' expectations of $0.28, indicating strong financial performance and effective management.
The company achieved a revenue of $19.31 billion during the quarter, far surpassing the anticipated $11.20 billion, showcasing robust business operations and demand for its services.
Currently, UBS Group AG's stock price is $30.69, which reflects a stable market position and potential for growth, especially considering its recent performance.
Institutional investors have shown increased interest, with significant stakes being acquired, such as a 566.4% increase in holdings by Benjamin F. Edwards & Company Inc., suggesting confidence in the company's future.
UBS Group AG has a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" from analysts, with several firms upgrading their ratings, indicating positive market sentiment and potential for stock appreciation.

UBS Group
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in UBS Group AG for these reasons:

Despite recent positive earnings, UBS Group AG has a relatively low return on equity of 4.69%, which may indicate less efficiency in generating profits from shareholders' equity compared to competitors.
The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 3.87, suggesting that it relies heavily on debt financing, which could pose risks in a rising interest rate environment or economic downturn.
Short interest in UBS Group AG has decreased by 15.0%, but the current short-interest ratio stands at 4.8 days, indicating that some investors are still betting against the stock, which could reflect underlying concerns.
UBS Group AG's net margin of 5.13% is relatively modest, which may limit its ability to withstand economic pressures or invest in growth opportunities compared to peers with higher margins.
The stock has a price-to-earnings ratio of 25.58, which may be considered high, suggesting that the stock could be overvalued relative to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
