LPLA Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
LPL Financial Holdings has demonstrated significant organic growth, attributed to improved retention and recruiting, with a robust performance in commission revenue, transaction and service fees, and interest income. The company's adjusted earnings showed a positive trend with a notable gross profit increase, which is expected to be sustainable due to ongoing favorable market conditions in the retail wealth management subsector. Furthermore, LPL's expansion into new channels and strategic management of expenses provide a solid foundation for continued growth in the coming years, reflecting confidence in the firm's future financial performance.
Bears say
LPL Financial Holdings has experienced a net month-over-month decline of approximately $43.3 billion, or 1.4%, in client assets, despite $0.7 billion in cash inflows, indicating potential liquidity challenges. The company's earnings per share (EPS) estimates for 2024, 2025, and 2026 have been revised downward due to lower cash levels, declining market valuations, and attrition from Office of Supervisory Jurisdiction (OSJ) departures, which are expected to negatively impact revenue streams. Additionally, risks such as a stagnant interest rate environment, lower equity market valuations, and faster fee compression further hinder the company’s growth prospects, contributing to an overall negative outlook for the stock.
