-- Apollo Global Management (APO) shares are trading in-line with historical average multiple and at a lower discount against its peers, RBC Capital Markets said in a Thursday note.
"We maintain our Sector Perform rating largely driven by relative valuation," the report said.
The note said its Q1 performance was characterized by strong fee-related earnings growth, offset by weak spread-related earnings growth, driving a low adjusted net income per share growth.
RBC raised its price target to $146 from $139 on rolling forward its valuation and higher estimates.
