What the Analysts think about AJ Bell

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for AJ Bell stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Half-year profit rose 12%, as AJ Bell added 50,000 customers and launched a £25 million share buyback, with revenue up 17% to £153.2 million and net inflows of £3.3 billion. (Reuters)
Third-quarter momentum persisted, with net platform inflows at £2.1 billion, assets under administration up 14% year-on-year to £102 billion, and client numbers reaching 620,000, highlighting robust demand across both direct-to-consumer and adviser channels. (FT)
Strong cash generation continues to support returns to shareholders: AJ Bell returned £64 million through dividends and buybacks in the first half, just announced a further £25 million share buyback, and raised its interim dividend by 6% to 4.50 pence. (Reuters)
Dependence on interest income from uninvested client cash, expected to make up about 40% of revenue in 2025, leaves earnings exposed to interest rate swings and the risk of regulatory intervention. (FT)
AJ Bell's premium valuation—about 21 times forward earnings for 2026, higher than competitors like Integrafin and Quilter—could limit share price gains and adds valuation risk. (FT)
Profit before tax margin decreased by 1.9 percentage points to 44.9% for the first half, as pricing reductions and increased investment spending weighed on profitability in the near term. (Shares Magazine)
