Tesco - 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.

Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Tesco PLC for these reasons:

  • JPMorgan Chase & Co. has recently lowered their target price for Tesco PLC from GBX 410 ($5.04) to GBX 400 ($4.91), which may indicate concerns about the company's short-term performance.
  • The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 126.42, suggesting that it relies heavily on debt financing, which can be risky in volatile market conditions.
  • Despite recent stock price increases, Tesco PLC's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is significantly high at 1,378.52, which may indicate that the stock is overvalued compared to its earnings.
  • The current ratio of 0.81 indicates that Tesco PLC may have liquidity issues, as it has less current assets than current liabilities, which could affect its ability to meet short-term obligations.
  • Recent trading volumes have shown fluctuations, with a notable decrease in shares exchanged, which may suggest reduced investor interest or confidence in the stock.
