Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. Brookfield Asset Management stock has delivered a 72.4% gain over the past three years, yet the latest Excess Returns intrinsic value estimate suggests the shares trade at a premium to that model, while traditional multiples look roughly in line and the broader checks lean expensive rather than cheap. Over the past three years, Brookfield Asset Management has returned 72.4%, which puts more pressure on today’s price to be supported by future cash flows. Brookfield’s push into AI focused infrastructure, including expanded data center partnerships and related projects, can support long term growth expectations, but large capital needs and execution risk around these commitments may weigh on how much investors are willing to pay today. The company passes 0 of 6 valuation checks, which means the broader assessment suggests Brookfield Asset Management is not a clear bargain right now on Simply Wall St’s valuation scorecard. The issue now is whether Brookfield Asset Management’s current share price still offers enough potential upside relative to its intrinsic value estimate to justify that recent three year run. Find out why Brookfield Asset Management's -12.1% return over the last year is lagging behind its peers. The Excess Returns model examines how efficiently Brookfield Asset Management converts its equity base into profits, then compares those returns with the cost of that equity. For Brookfield, the model uses a Book Value of CA$4.74 per share and a Stable EPS of CA$2.34 per share, based on forward looking return on equity estimates from five analysts. With an Average Return on Equity of 41.51% and a Cost of Equity of CA$0.49 per share, the model calculates an Excess Return of CA$1.85 per share on a Stable Book Value of CA$5.63. That stream of excess returns is capitalised into an intrinsic value of CA$53.37 per share, which is meaningfully below the current share price and implies the stock is about 29.0% overvalued on this basis. Brookfield’s recent move to launch a CA$100b scale AI infrastructure fund helps explain why investors may be willing to pay a richer multiple than the model suggests. On the Excess Returns view, Brookfield Asset Management stock currently screens as overvalued relative to its projected retur...

Consumer financial services company, Synchrony Financial SYF, is set to report second-quarter 2026 results on July 21, before the opening bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s earnings is currently pegged at $2.02 per shareon revenues of $4.67 billion. The second-quarter earnings estimate has witnessed no upward revision and three downward movements over the past 30 days. The bottom-line projection indicates a year-over-year decrease of 19.2%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues implies year-over-year growth of 3.4%. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research For full-year 2026, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for Synchrony’s revenues is pegged at $19.12 billion, implying an increase of 3.6% year over year. However, the consensus mark for the current year EPS is pegged at $9.34, signaling a decline of around 0.9% on a year-over-year basis. SYF’s earnings beat the consensus estimate in three of the last four quarters and met once, with the average surprise being 20.7%. Synchrony Financial price-eps-surprise | Synchrony Financial Quote Our proven model predicts a likely earnings beat for the company this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That is precisely the case here. Synchronyhas an Earnings ESP of +2.07% and carries a Zacks Rank #3 at present. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter. Synchrony is expected to have seen advantages in the second quarter from increased net interest margin and higher purchase volumes. Our model predicts interest and fees on loans of $5.47 billion for the quarter, up 2.6% from a year ago. Higher figures from Health & Wellness and Digital are likely to have anchored the results.

Looking for a stock that has been consistently beating earnings estimates and might be well positioned to keep the streak alive in its next quarterly report? Brookfield Asset Management (BAM), which belongs to the Zacks Financial - Miscellaneous Services industry, could be a great candidate to consider. When looking at the last two reports, this investment manager has recorded a strong streak of surpassing earnings estimates. The company has topped estimates by 5.84%, on average, in the last two quarters. For the most recent quarter, Brookfield was expected to post earnings of $0.42 per share, but it reported $0.43 per share instead, representing a surprise of 2.38%. For the previous quarter, the consensus estimate was $0.43 per share, while it actually produced $0.47 per share, a surprise of 9.30%. For Brookfield, estimates have been trending higher, thanks in part to this earnings surprise history. And when you look at the stock's positive Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction), it's a great indicator of a future earnings beat, especially when combined with its solid Zacks Rank. Our research shows that stocks with the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time. In other words, if you have 10 stocks with this combination, the number of stocks that beat the consensus estimate could be as high as seven. The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a version of the Zacks Consensus whose definition is related to change. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier. Brookfield currently has an Earnings ESP of +4.55%, which suggests that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This positive Earnings ESP when combined with the stock's Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) indicates that another beat is possibly around the corner. We expect the company's next earnings report to be released on August 5, 2026. With the Earnings ESP metric, it's important to note that a negative value reduces its predictive power; however, a negative Earnings ESP does not indicate an earnings m...

TORONTO, May 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Partners Value Investments Inc. (the “Company”, TSXV: PVF.WT, PVF.PR.V, PVF.A) announced today its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. All amounts are stated in United States dollar ("US dollar"). The Company recorded net income of $897 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $972 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net income was primarily due to lower remeasurement gains associated with the Company's retractable common shares of $712 million compared to remeasurement gains of $953 million in the prior year period, partially offset by remeasurement gains on warrants of $125 million compared to remeasurement losses of $3 million in the prior year period, and remeasurement gains on exchangeable shares of $36 million compared to $nil in the prior year period. The Company's retractable common shares, exchangeable shares and warrants are classified as liabilities due to their retractable, exchangeable and convertible features, respectively. The remeasurement gains or losses on retractable common shares and exchangeable shares in a given period are driven by the respective depreciation or appreciation of the Partners Value Investments L.P.'s (the "Partnership") Equity LP unit ("Equity LP unit") price. The remeasurement gains or losses on warrants in a given period are driven by the respective depreciation or appreciation of the market price of a warrant. Adjusted Earnings is a non-IFRS measure that can be used to evaluate the performance of the Company, defined as net income (loss) attributable to the Company, excluding the impact of remeasurement gains (losses) on retractable common shares, exchangeable shares, and warrant liability, as well as dividends paid on retractable common shares. The Company recorded Adjusted Earnings of $32 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $30 million in the prior year period. Adjusted Earnings increased due to favorable foreign currency movements as a result of the depreciation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar and higher investment income, partially offset by valuation losses on our investment portfolio and higher preferred share dividends as a result of net new issuances compared with the prior year period. As at March 31, 2026, the market prices of a Brookfield Corporation (“BN”, NYSE/TSX:...
