Affiliated Managers Group Inc (AMG) saw a price increase of 3.01%, reaching a 52-week high. This movement comes amid broader market strength, with the Nasdaq-100 up 0.35% and the S&P 500 up 0.62%.
The surge is attributed to AMG Lithium securing €36 million in funding for Europe's first industrial-scale battery-grade lithium hydroxide facility, which is set to enhance AMG's position in the lithium supply chain and support the development of a sustainable circular economy. This project is expected to produce 20,000 tons of lithium hydroxide annually, significantly boosting AMG's capabilities in the electric vehicle market.
This funding not only strengthens AMG's competitive edge in the global lithium market but also aligns with the European Critical Raw Materials Act, positioning the company favorably for future demand growth in the electric vehicle sector.

Barrington raised the firm's price target on Affiliated Managers to $295 from $285 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. Given the substantial increase in AMG's Alternative AUM, the significant growth and margin expansion at AQR and Pantheon, and the positive contributions resulting from capital deployed in growth investments, the firm expects a "meaningful increase" in economic EPS in 2026, the analyst tells investors in a post-earnings note.

BofA raised the firm's price target on Affiliated Managers to $372 from $335 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares following what the firm describes as "another landmark quarter" as AQR and Pantheon's profit share structures are driving margin expansion combined with strong organic growth and a favorable mix shift toward higher-fee alternatives. The firm, which forecasts continued inflows of $8B in Q4, expects the M&A pipeline to "remain robust" in 2026.
