St. James’s Place ( (GB:STJ) ) has shared an update.
St. James’s Place reported a strong 2025 performance, with gross inflows rising 19% to £21.9 billion and a high retention rate of 94.9% driving a 42% increase in net inflows to £6.2 billion. Combined with robust investment returns equivalent to 12.4% of opening funds under management, total assets under management reached a record £220.0 billion, up 16% year-on-year. Management said the Autumn Budget uncertainty boosted demand for advice, while the new, simpler charging structure was successfully embedded, contributing to elevated client engagement in the third quarter and a temporary slowdown early in the fourth. The firm also noted short‑term, tax-driven pension outflows as clients brought forward tax‑free cash withdrawals, but said outflows and engagement had normalised by late Q4 and into early 2026. With progress on historic service evidence reviews and its cost and efficiency programme, SJP positions these results as reinforcing its strategy to strengthen the business and extend its leadership in the UK wealth management market.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:STJ) stock is a Hold with a £1350.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on St. James’s Place stock, see the GB:STJ Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:STJ Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:STJ is a Neutral.
The score reflects a solid technical uptrend and a positive operating narrative from the latest earnings call (strong inflows, record FUM, improving underlying cash result). Offsetting these positives, financial performance is held back by volatile results and notably weak/uneven cash generation, while valuation is only moderately attractive given the low dividend yield.
