Blackstone Stock Pressure Driven by Broader Sell-off in Software, RBC Capital Markets Says

Blackstone's (BX) Q1 results did not warrant the roughly 6% stock decline, which was likely driven by the broader sell-off in software and the Medallia restructuring, where the company is a debt holder, RBC Capital Markets said in a Friday research note.The Q1 results were slightly positive due to robust portfolio performance, steady institutional fundraising, and momentum in the company's private wealth funds, the RBC analysts said.The fundraising cycle is expected to ramp management fees in Q4, given fee holidays and credit funds getting paid on deployment. The brokerage forecast a 13% base management fee growth in 2027, according to the note.RBC said the company's performance record and brand strength positions it as a winner within this long-term growth opportunity.RBC reiterated its outperform rating on the stock and adjusted its price target to $173 from $176.Price: $121.98, Change: $-0.35, Percent Change: -0.29%

Research Alert: CFRA Lowers Rating To Buy From Strong Buy On Shares Of Blackstone Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We keep our 12-month target at $185 on a forward P/E of 29.8x our 2026 distributable earnings (DE) estimate and 2027's forward P/E at 24.2x. These valuation metrics compare to the three-year historical average at 27.8x and five-year at 25.2x. Our downgrade is a result of our tempered enthusiasm on negative brand issues within the private credit market. We were too optimistic on the DE outlook. We reduce our 2026 DE estimate by $0.50 to $6.20 (consensus $6.13) and lower 2027's by $0.30 to $7.60. Our 2026 revenue projection is $16.0B (prior $16.3B), with 2027's at $19.2B ($19.8B). Our premium valuation to the historic average reflects our view that BX and the ALT industry will show momentum into 2027 within the private market investment cycle. In 2026, we think this translates into increased incentive fees and monetization in Private Equity as well as higher management and advisory fees across all business segments. Private Credit & Insurance showed solid results and attractive fundraising from institutions.

Research Alert: Blackstone Posts Slight Q1 2026 Earnings Beat, Revenue In Line

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:BX delivered solid Q1 2026 results with distributable earnings of $1.36 per share, narrowly exceeding the $1.34 consensus estimate and reflecting 25% Y/Y growth led by strong net realizations of $36B across Private Equity ($15B) and Credit & Insurance ($14B). The firm demonstrated exceptional asset gathering momentum with $68.5B of inflows and total AUM reaching $1.3T (+12% Y/Y), while fee-earning AUM grew to $937.6B (+9% Y/Y). The firm is seeing successful monetization and exits from private equity-owned companies, with continued focus on fast-growing areas such as digital and energy infrastructure positioning the firm well for future growth. Credit & Insurance led AUM growth at $457.5B (+17.7% Y/Y), followed by Private Equity at $429.9B (+15.9%), while Real Estate faced headwinds at $315.3B (-2% Y/Y). We think Credit & Insurance and Private Equity will continue to lead growth and performance in 2026 from institutional demand, while Real Estate will grow modestly as market conditions improve over time.
