Value (P/E)94.6
Income62.3

A peer-relative read for asset managers 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
Asset Management · market cap $4.1b. 18% off the 52-week high of $67.20. Revenue growing +10%, comfortably above the S&P median. 7 sell-side analysts rate this a Hold with a mean 1-yr target of $59.43 (implying +8% upside).
Moat
Net margin 21% sits well above the S&P median (~11%) — suggests structural pricing advantage or cost discipline competitors can't quickly close. ROE 31% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which.
Risk
Balance-sheet financial — book value, net interest margin, and credit loss provisions are the lever points; a rates regime change or a deterioration in the loan book moves the stock more than EPS does.
Horizon
1-3 yr $59.43 (7-analyst consensus) — multiple re-rating thesis requires a catalyst. 5 yr $75.03 at ~6% CAGR — dividend + buyback compounding. 10 yr $96.22 if the moat survives secular pressure.

Federated Hermes, Inc. (FHI): score, valuation & FAQ

Federated Hermes, Inc. (FHI) is an Asset Management 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 ROE (A) and P/E (A-).

Is FHI a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings grades FHI 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 ROE (A) and P/E (A-). A score is a quantitative screen of Federated Hermes, Inc.'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 FHI?

As a bank, insurer or REIT, FHI 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 ROE (A) and P/E (A-).

Is FHI overvalued or undervalued?

We don't publish a discounted-cash-flow value for FHI, and not because the business is unprofitable. For a lender, insurer or property trust, "free cash flow" measures balance-sheet growth rather than owner earnings — loan originations and repayments run through operating cash flow — so discounting it would produce a confident-looking number with nothing behind it. FHI is judged on book value, return on equity and income cover instead, which is what the financial-strength card shows.

What are the main risks of investing in FHI?

Balance-sheet financial — book value, net interest margin, and credit loss provisions are the lever points; a rates regime change or a deterioration in the loan book moves the stock more than EPS does.
