Allianz Buy Rec Reiterated
Allianz Aktiengesell (AZ) has over 60 million customers and a presence in more than 70 countries. It is the largest insurer in Germany with a market share of 18% of the property and casualty insurance in that country, and is a leader in Europe.
We are maintaining our Buy recommendation on Allianz after its third quarter results. The recent sharp drop in share price has taken the stock to a very attractive level, and our Zacks quantitative model also has a Buy on the stock. Our target price is $11.00.
On our forecast, the stock is trading at 5.3x 2009 EPADR, which is a very attractive valuation. Allianz is one of the oldest and largest insurers in Europe as well as a top insurer worldwide. As such we believe that the company has the reputation and financial strength to withstand any major slow down in the business going forward.
