Analyst projections of the future price of CNO Financial stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
CNO raised its 2026 operating EPS guidance to $4.60–$4.80 after second-quarter operating EPS grew 45% year on year. Operating ROE was 13.1%, pointing to stronger profitability as well as sales growth. (CNO Financial Group)
Worksite sales reached a record, with new annualised premiums up 29% and premiums from new clients up 84%. Producing agent numbers also rose for a 16th consecutive quarter, supporting the prospect of continued distribution-led growth. (CNO Financial Group)
Consumer health premiums grew 17%, while Medicare Supplement sales rose 52% for a third straight quarter of growth above 50%; annuity collected premiums also reached a record. This points to strong demand for CNO’s health and retirement-income products. (CNO Financial Group)
Consumer life sales fell 9% in the second quarter, mainly due to weaker direct-to-consumer sales. Comparisons are getting harder, and management has not promised a return to growth in any single quarter. (Earnings Whispers)
The 45% second-quarter EPS increase may be difficult to repeat: results included reserve releases, while the 18.4% expense ratio was a timing benefit that management expected to reverse later in the year. This makes the raised full-year outlook worth testing against more normal expenses and earnings drivers. (Earnings Whispers, CNO Financial Group)
CNO reported $37.4 million of investment losses in the first half and $896.1 million of gross unrealised losses on fixed-maturity securities in loss positions. If credit quality worsens or the company needs to sell holdings before recovery, further losses could weigh on earnings or capital. (SEC)
