Corning - 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. 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

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Corning Incorporated for these reasons:

  • Corning's stock has a relatively high P/E ratio of 63.26, which may indicate that the stock is currently overvalued compared to its earnings.
  • The company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.63 suggests a moderate level of debt, which could pose risks in case of economic downturns or financial instability.
  • Corning's payout ratio of 157.75% raises concerns about the sustainability of its dividend payments in the long term, as it indicates that the company is paying out more in dividends than it is earning.
  • The stock's beta of 1.04 implies a similar level of volatility as the overall market, which may not appeal to risk-averse investors seeking more stable investments.
  • While the company has shown growth, the P/E/G ratio of 1.73 suggests that the stock may be slightly overvalued relative to its expected earnings growth rate, potentially limiting future upside.
