12:55 AM EDT, 03/26/2026 (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 lower our 12-month target price on Deutsche Bank ( DB ) to USD32 from USD42, based on a reduced target P/E of 8.2x (from 10.3x) applied to our unchanged 2026 EPS estimate of EUR3.40. The multiple compression reflects the broader sector de-rating, with European bank valuations declining to ~9.7x amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty following the escalation in the Middle East. We maintain our Hold rating. While the recent market-driven sell-off has increased the apparent upside, we see no material change in DBK's underlying fundamentals to warrant a more constructive stance. The bank has delivered on its transformation and capital return targets, but investors remain focused on forward-looking risks, including regulatory overhangs and CRE exposure, as well as macroeconomic headwinds in Germany. We believe the revised valuation appropriately balances DBK's improved operating profile against these persistent risks.
