Analysts expect Prudential PLC to report H1 2026 revenue (APE sales) of approximately $3.82 billion and adjusted EPS of $1.10, with the stock currently trading around $28.49 against an average price target of $37.82. The primary focus for investors is New Business Profit (NBP) growth, particularly within the high-margin Hong Kong and Mainland China corridors which are key to meeting the company’s double-digit growth targets.
Management’s execution of the $1.2 billion share buyback program, which has already seen significant activity through August 2026, remains a central theme for capital returns. Investors are also monitoring for margin expansion in the Eastspring asset management arm and updates on the group's strategic pivot toward high-growth markets in Asia and Africa following the completion of its US and UK demergers.
