what happened

Peel Hunt analysts Rae Maile and Ross Luckman said in a note that Aberdeen Group still has room for future upgrades and a higher valuation. According to Market Talk, the asset manager reiterated its target of at least 300 million pounds in profit and roughly the same amount in capital generation. Analyst forecasts already reflect these levels. Consensus for the current year has climbed to match long-standing estimates, but expectations for later periods remain limited.

why it matters

For investors, the signal is that management is delivering on its change agenda, which supports confidence in the business. Still, analysts see limited scope for earnings expectations to rise beyond the current year. The shares, up 13% over 12 months, were down 3.5% at 226.80 pence.
