Kyle Peterson has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors that influence the current and future performance of TransUnion. The company’s recent quarterly results exceeded market expectations, driven by strong performance in sectors such as FinTech lending and growth in international markets like Canada and India. This positive outcome led to an upward revision of the full-year outlook, which was well-received by the market.
Despite these positive developments, Peterson maintains a cautious stance, noting that the stock’s valuation, with a forward P/E multiple of approximately 21.5x for FY26, presents a balanced risk-reward scenario. While he acknowledges the company’s commendable execution in areas like soft-pull mortgage and consumer lending, the current trading levels suggest limited upside potential, justifying the Hold rating.

In another report released yesterday, Barclays also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $95.00 price target.
