AON - 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.

Should I Buy AON Stock? AON 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, February 2, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these AON pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

AON
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Aon plc:

Aon plc has a strong market capitalization of $81.49 billion, indicating a robust financial position and stability in the market.
The company recently announced a quarterly dividend of $0.675 per share, translating to an annualized dividend of $2.70 and a yield of 0.72%, which can provide a steady income stream for investors.
Recent upgrades from analysts, including Wells Fargo raising the price target to $410.00, suggest positive market sentiment and potential for stock price appreciation.
The stock is currently trading around $387.68, which is near the recent average price levels, indicating a potential entry point for investors looking to capitalize on future growth.
Aon plc has a relatively low payout ratio of 22.78%, suggesting that the company retains a significant portion of its earnings for reinvestment, which can drive future growth.

AON
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Aon plc for these reasons:

The stock has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 31.80, which may indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
Insider selling activity, such as the recent sale of shares by COO Mindy F. Simon and insider Lisa Stevens, may raise concerns about the company's future performance and insider confidence.
The PEG ratio of 2.00 suggests that the stock's price is high relative to its expected earnings growth, which could deter value-focused investors.
With a beta of 0.93, Aon plc's stock is less volatile than the market, which may not appeal to investors seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities.
Despite recent analyst upgrades, the consensus rating remains a "Hold," indicating that many analysts are cautious about the stock's short-term performance.
