What Do These Terms Mean?
- EPS (Earnings Per Share):
- Quarterly profit divided by the total share count — how much of the profit works out to a single share.
- YoY (Year over Year):
- Change versus the same quarter a year ago — this is how you compare without seasonal distortion (e.g. the holiday shopping season).
- Sales:
- All revenue for the quarter, before any costs are deducted — the top line of the income statement.
- Net Margin:
- What percentage of sales is left over as profit in the end. Negative means the company is posting a loss.
- OCF (Operating Cash Flow):
- The cash that actually flows into the till from the core business during the quarter — harder to dress up than book profit.
- FCF (Free Cash Flow):
- Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures — the money that's genuinely free to use, say for paying down debt, buybacks, or dividends.

Outlook
Analysts & Price Target
Combined picture of the price targets and recommendations of every analyst covering the stock. Price targets are expectations for the next 12 months, not promises — and they often follow the price rather than predict it.
Distribution of Recommendations
Estimates by Fiscal Year
| Fiscal Year | EPS Estimate ($) | EPS Range ($) | Revenue Estimate ($M) | Expected Growth | Analysts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12/31/2026 | 12.39 | 11.90 – 12.80 | 7,233 | 20.4% | 7 |
| 12/31/2027 | 12.14 | 11.75 – 12.67 | 7,667 | -2.0% | 7 |
Average of the analyst estimates for the coming fiscal years. The range shows how far the most optimistic and the most cautious estimate sit apart — the wider it is, the less certain the expectation.
Valuation
What is priced in?
Instead of guessing what the stock is worth, we turn the question around: what free cash flow growth has to happen for today’s market value to add up? The assumptions behind it can be moved.
Today’s market value implies roughly -4.8% growth in free cash flow per year over ten years (assumptions: discount rate 10.0%, terminal growth 2.5%).
| Free cash flow (last twelve months) | $1.43B |
|---|---|
| Market cap | $11.66B |
| Free cash flow in year ten | $876.7M |
| Terminal value as a share of market value | 39.6% |
For comparison: over the past five years free cash flow shrank by 5.3% per year.
It shows which assumption is built into today’s price, not whether that assumption will hold. Every assumption can be changed with the sliders; the figures move with them.
A simplified model calculation — not a forecast and not a recommendation.
AI classification
AI Rating
American Financial Group nennt künstliche Intelligenz im Geschäftsbericht 10-K für 2025 ausschließlich in den Risikofaktoren (Item 1A) — als Wettbewerbsrisiko, weil Konkurrenten und Technologiefirmen KI schneller oder wirksamer einsetzen könnten, und als Zeichnungsrisiko, weil neue Technologie unvorhergesehene Deckungsfälle sowie mehr Betrug in der Schadenregulierung auslösen kann. Ein KI-Einsatz im eigenen Betrieb wird bestätigt, aber ohne benanntes Produkt, ohne Anwendungsfall und ohne jede Umsatzangabe; im Quartalsbericht 10-Q zum 31. März 2026 kommt KI überhaupt nicht vor. Damit ist KI für AFG kein Geschäftsmodell, sondern ein Risiko für das bestehende.
