Barclays analyst Tracy Benguigui initiated coverage on PLMR stock with a Buy rating and a $82 (7.2% downside potential) price target on Nov. 17.
Benguigui started coverage on the US non-life Insurance industry with a positive outlook, as he views property and casualty insurers at the winning end of a pandemic-induced recession.
COVID-19 is spurring “much-needed” foundational underwriting improvements that extend beyond the purview of a hard pricing cycle, the analyst added. (See PLMR stock analysis on TipRanks)
From the rest of the Street, the stock scores a cautiously optimistic analyst consensus of a Moderate Buy based on 3 Buys and 2 Holds. The average analyst price target of $101 implies upside potential of 14.4% to current levels.
