Exelon - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2024)

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.

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.

Exelon
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Exelon Co.:

Exelon Co. recently reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.71, exceeding analysts' expectations of $0.67, indicating strong financial performance and effective management.
The company has a solid market capitalization of approximately $39 billion, which reflects its stability and potential for growth in the utility sector.
Exelon Co. has a current stock price of $38.71, which is below the average price target of $41.25 set by analysts, suggesting potential for price appreciation.
With a quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share, translating to an annual yield of about 3.93%, investors can benefit from regular income in addition to capital gains.
Analysts have a consensus rating of "Hold" with several recent upgrades, indicating confidence in the company's future performance and stability in the market.

Exelon
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Exelon Co. for these reasons:

The stock has a relatively high debt-to-equity ratio of 1.66, which may indicate financial risk, as it suggests the company relies significantly on debt to finance its operations.
Exelon Co. has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 15.93, which, while not excessively high, may suggest that the stock is fairly valued compared to its earnings growth potential.
Despite recent positive earnings, the company's revenue growth of only 2.9% year-over-year may not be sufficient to attract aggressive growth investors.
The stock's beta of 0.54 indicates lower volatility compared to the market, which may not appeal to investors seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities.
With eleven analysts rating the stock as a "Hold," there may be limited enthusiasm for significant price increases in the near term, suggesting a cautious outlook.
