Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Rating On Shares Of The Charles Schwab Corporation

-- CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We hold our target price at $125, 18.2x our 2027 EPS estimate, a premium to the peer average (16.6x) given SCHW's healthy earnings power. We increase our 2026 EPS view by $0.08 to $5.81 and 2027's by $0.27 to $6.85. Following Q1 earnings, we believe investors are reacting negatively to the top-line miss. Yet, we remain constructive on SCHW's strategic framework and its ability to drive long-term value. Management's key messages from the call reinforce our thesis, highlighting that its "Through Clients' Eyes" strategy is delivering record client growth, its platform is proving uniquely capable in volatile markets, and its pace of innovation is accelerating. This rapid innovation, particularly in digital assets, AI-powered tools, and the new Schwab Investor Teen Account, supports our long-held view that SCHW is building a competitive moat with younger generations. By capturing these clients early with relevant technology and a mission-driven approach, SCHW is positioning itself as the primary financial partner.
