01:45 PM EDT, 09/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:
We raise our target price by $11 to $165 using a forward P/E 24.6x our 2026 earnings estimate, just below the five-year historical average at 26.9x and near direct peers. We keep our EPS estimates at $5.30 in 2025 and $6.70 in 2026 compared to consensus estimates at $5.24 and $6.69, respectively. Our revenue projections are $8.2B in 2025 and $10.4B in 2026. Our investment thesis is due to our optimistic view that KKR will realize private equity monetization and return of capital in the second half of 2025. The valuation plays into the gap between private and public valuation views, with private equity funds that span a seven- to 10-year lifespan.
