Adam Klauber has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors influencing Baldwin Insurance Group’s performance and future outlook. Despite some short-term challenges, such as lower-than-expected organic growth and increased interest expenses, the company has shown resilience with an adjusted EBITDA margin that slightly exceeded expectations. The organic growth was impacted by specific accounting changes and commission adjustments, but when these are accounted for, the growth rate would have been significantly higher.
Looking ahead, Klauber anticipates that Baldwin’s organic growth will pick up momentum by 2026, supported by new business developments and the stabilization of rates and exposures. The company’s financial health is also expected to improve with better debt leverage and increasing free cash flow. Furthermore, Baldwin’s valuation, which is only slightly above its core broker peers, suggests potential for the stock to outperform in the long term, justifying the Buy rating.
In another report released on November 3, Bank of America Securities also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $33.00 price target.
