Capital One Financial (US1344291091) sits on the NYSE with a clear analyst consensus picture. Sell-side forecasts compiled by MarketBeat point to full-year 2026 earnings per share near 19.5 dollars for the credit card-focused lender.
What recent research shows
MarketBeat data aggregating research-house views reports that Capital One Financial is covered by more than a dozen firms, with a mix of Buy and Hold ratings on the shares. The average analyst target price stands around the mid-200 dollar range, indicating upside versus current trading levels.
Argus Research, for example, cut its target price from 260 to 250 dollars in late April while reiterating a Buy stance, reflecting a cautious but still constructive view on earnings power. Ratings from Weiss and others cluster around Hold, underscoring a balanced risk-reward for the S&P 500 constituent.
Consensus earnings expectations
According to MarketBeat, the sell-side consensus for Capital One Financial points to roughly 19.51 dollars in earnings per share for the current year. That implies a price-earnings multiple in the low double digits based on recent NYSE quotes, a level that compares to other large U.S. card issuers such as American Express and Discover Financial.
In the most recently reported quarter, the bank delivered earnings per share near 4.4 dollars, which MarketBeat notes was below the consensus estimate of just over 5 dollars. The miss has led some analysts to trim price targets, but the full-year outlook remains robust in aggregate.
