According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, NWG is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by solid profitability and upbeat guidance/capital returns, reinforced by attractive valuation. These positives are tempered by weak and volatile cash flow (including the most recent year), and softer near-term technical momentum.
