How this is scored: each factor above is a 0–100 percentile rank against every other stock BeStock covers (or, for Wall Street, against the five-point Strong Buy–Sell scale). The overall grade is the plain average of whichever factors apply to this stock — no factor is weighted more than another. That average maps to a letter: A ≥ 85, B ≥ 70, C ≥ 50, D ≥ 30, otherwise F. Recomputed from the data on this page as prices and filings update — it describes where a stock ranks today, not a forecast, and not a BeStock recommendation to buy or sell.

AFL is not currently one of the 10 holdings in BeStock Momentum, our rules-based momentum strategy.

What Wall Street analysts and Morningstar's fair-value model expect for the stock

Analyst price target (avg)$117.67-5.2% vs. current price
Consensus ratingHold10 analysts covering
Morningstar fair value$115.75Price is above fair value

Wall Street’s average 12-month target is $117.67, 5.2% below today’s price, with a consensus rating of Hold. Morningstar’s fair value model puts the stock at $115.75, so shares trade 7.2% above that estimate. On earnings multiple, it sits in the 71st percentile of its own five-year valuation range (pricier than usual).

Aflac Inc: the business

Aflac sells supplemental insurance, meaning cancer, accident and hospital plans, with the majority of its profit coming from Japan and the rest from the U.S.

What tends to move it. The yen-dollar exchange rate, investment returns and policy sales in Japan matter most. The company has raised its dividend for decades.

Where the case gets weaker. A stronger yen against the dollar cuts the value of Aflac's Japan profits when translated back, and weaker policy sales there would compound the hit. Slowing growth in Japan is the bigger risk than currency alone, since that market still generates most of the company's earnings.
