AJG Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Arthur J. Gallagher has demonstrated strong financial performance, with the Brokerage segment's Q4 EBITDAC margin increasing by 150 basis points year-over-year to 33.1%, surpassing prior estimates. The company anticipates organic growth in its Brokerage segment to reach 6-8% in FY'25, with potential for margin expansion tied to growth levels. Additionally, the Risk Management segment saw total fee revenue grow 8.6% year-over-year, reflecting robust operational health and a positive outlook for future revenue streams.
Bears say
Arthur J. Gallagher's financial performance shows signs of concern, as the adjusted EBITDAC for the fourth quarter exhibits only slight year-over-year growth of $73 million compared to $70 million, with a margin decline of 30 basis points to 20.6%. The Risk Management segment, which is critical to Gallagher's operations, recorded a 40 basis point drop in adjusted EBITDAC margin, highlighting weakening profitability and elevated costs associated with recent acquisitions. Furthermore, expectations of rising corporate segment expenses and lower fiduciary investment income due to decreasing interest rates contribute to the pessimistic outlook, amidst a slowing commercial lines premium growth environment.
