Unum (UNM) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Unum (UNM) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Unum Group operates in an improving life insurance industry characterized by reduced liability tail risk and enhanced returns, alongside the capability to generate strong free cash flow. The company benefits from a favorable operating environment marked by higher interest rates, demographic trends, and technological advancements, positioning it for robust growth. With a leading position in the group benefits market, Unum Group showcases mid-single-digit premium growth, returns on equity exceeding 20%, and impressive free cash flow conversion rates above 90%.
Bears say
Unum Group's stock outlook is negatively influenced by revised earnings per share (EPS) estimates for 2025 and 2026, which have been lowered to $8.48 and $9.25, respectively, due to increased group disability benefit ratios expected to reach 62% and 63% in those years. Additionally, there are concerns regarding higher-than-anticipated long-term care incidence rates that could impact profitability, compounded by the risk of GAAP assumption reviews in the third quarter of 2025. These factors contribute to the overall financial challenges facing the company, despite maintaining adequate capital reserves for potential risks.
