Ally Financial Inc (ALLY) has seen its stock price decline by 3.00% and hit a 20-day low, reflecting broader market challenges as the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 both fell over 2%.
The company is scheduled to announce its Q4 2023 earnings on January 21, with an EPS estimate of $1.02, indicating a year-over-year growth of 30.8%. However, there have been mixed revisions in analyst estimates, with 8 upward and 8 downward revisions for EPS, and 2 upward and 10 downward revisions for revenue, suggesting uncertainty in the market. This context of mixed analyst sentiment and upcoming earnings is contributing to the stock's current performance amid overall market weakness.
As Ally prepares for its earnings report, investors are closely monitoring the company's ability to maintain profitability in a competitive financial landscape. The upcoming announcement could provide insights into its operational stability and future growth potential.

Truist lowered the firm's price target on Ally Financial to $50 from $51 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after its Q4 results. The firm is also cutting its FY26 EPS view by 25c to $5.25 and its FY27 view by 5c to $6.40, with main drivers being a lower net financing revenue due to margin expansion slower than previously expected and smaller buyback amount than before, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

BofA raised the firm's price target on Ally Financial to $51 from $42 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. While the firm appreciates "where there is skepticism" with shares trading at a 14% premium to the stock's pre-pandemic trading range, it still sees signs of positive price momentum and remains positive, highlighting that most of the recent outperformance compared to consumer finance names since mid-November came following the bank's $2B buyback authorization, which it calls "an endorsement of the earnings momentum."

Reason
UBS initiated coverage of Ally Financial with a Buy rating and $56 price target. The market appears to undervalue the next phase of Ally's ROTCE improvement, which is projected to approach 14% in 2027 and rise further thereafter, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Gradual credit loss improvement, net interest margin expansion, share repurchases, and business simplifications-like exiting credit card and mortgage-are expected to drive higher returns, a cleaner balance sheet, and lower earnings volatility, UBS says.
