Forward price target — the 1-year figure is the analyst consensus where the stock is covered; the 5- and 10-year figures compound our earnings estimate from there. The DCF below is a separate cross-check on intrinsic value (what it's worth today), not another target.

A peer-relative read for financials on profitability (ROE), valuation, and covered income — the quality-growth (FCF/ROIC) screen doesn't apply to balance-sheet businesses. Not comparable to the 0–100 quality-growth score shown on other stocks.

Why now
Banks - Diversified · market cap $141.4b. 3% off the 52-week high of $26.40. 3 sell-side analysts rate this a Hold with a mean 1-yr target of $23.79 (implying -7% upside).
Moat
Net margin 33% is exceptional — pricing-power territory rare outside premium software, branded staples, and specialty pharma. ROE 19% sits above Buffett's preferred 15% threshold — the equity base is compounding at a rate the market struggles to discount accurately. $141.4b market cap gives the company enough scale to absorb fixed costs that subscale competitors can't, without yet being so large that growth has to come from acquisition.
Risk
Duration mismatch — the asset and liability books reprice on different schedules; a rapid move in rates either direction can compress net interest margin before management can reposition.
Horizon
1-3 yr $23.79 (3-analyst consensus) — multiple re-rating thesis requires a catalyst. 5 yr $30.03 at ~3% CAGR — dividend + buyback compounding. 10 yr $38.51 if the moat survives secular pressure.

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (BBVA): score, valuation & FAQ

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (BBVA) is a Banks - Diversified company. As a bank, insurer or REIT it runs on a different financial model from the rest of the market, so Bull Rankings grades it on a sector-appropriate card — price-to-book, dividend yield, payout ratio and cash-flow coverage — rather than the 0–100 quality-growth score used elsewhere. The read below is a transparent screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are P/E (B+), ROE (B+) and Yield (B+).

Is BBVA a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings grades BBVA on a sector-appropriate card — price-to-book, dividend yield, payout and cash-flow coverage — rather than a single quality-growth score. That is driven by P/E (B+), ROE (B+) and Yield (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A.'s fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

How does Bull Rankings grade BBVA?

As a bank, insurer or REIT, BBVA isn't given a quality-growth score — signals like free cash flow, debt-to-equity and P/E don't translate cleanly to a balance-sheet business. Instead it's graded on a sector-appropriate card: price-to-book, dividend yield, payout ratio and operating-cash-flow coverage, where it rates strongest on P/E (B+), ROE (B+) and Yield (B+).

Is BBVA overvalued or undervalued?

We don't compute a reliable discounted-cash-flow value for BBVA — typically because it is not yet consistently profitable or free-cash-flow positive — so its valuation rests on growth and price-to-sales rather than on earnings-based intrinsic value. Judge it on the trajectory of the business, not a single multiple.

What are the main risks of investing in BBVA?

Duration mismatch — the asset and liability books reprice on different schedules; a rapid move in rates either direction can compress net interest margin before management can reposition.
