Equitable Holdings (EQH) has drawn fresh attention after expanding its Structured Capital Strategies annuity lineup with a bitcoin linked index option tied to the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF and several new index based features.
The new bitcoin linked annuity feature arrives with Equitable Holdings trading at US$53.34 and showing firm momentum, with a 90 day share price return of 17.77% and a year to date share price gain of 11.19%. The 3 year total shareholder return of 96.60% and 5 year total shareholder return of 115.15% point to a strong longer term record.
Capitalize on the momentum around Equitable Holdings’ bitcoin linked annuity move by comparing it with other financial stocks that screen well for quality and valuation using the 32 high quality undervalued stocks.
Equitable Holdings now trades well below both analyst price targets and an intrinsic value estimate, even after the bitcoin linked annuity headline. The gap between those markers and today’s US$53.34 quote is where the real story starts.
Most Popular Narrative: 13% Undervalued
Equitable Holdings is pegged with a fair value estimate of $61 against a last close of $53.34, which tilts the current debate toward undervaluation and places more emphasis on how its retirement engine and Corebridge merger story play out.
Product innovation (notably in RILAs, fee-based, and protection-focused annuities) and first-mover advantages through partnerships with major asset managers (BlackRock, AB, JPMorgan) position Equitable to capture premium pricing, differentiate from competitors, and access new markets. This is expected to improve average margins and support long-term earnings growth.
See why 8 investors see Equitable Holdings as 13% undervalued.
Result: Fair Value of $61 (UNDERVALUED)
Still, the Equitable Holdings story could be knocked off course if higher margin RILA products run off faster than expected or if RILA competition squeezes pricing.
