  • CIBC valuation flags undervaluation after rally, says Excess Returns model
    January 17, 2026, 10:10 AM EST. CIBC trades at CA$128.46 on the TSX, up 1.7% in 7 days and 47.4% over the last year. Simply Wall St flags a mixed picture: a 3/6 valuation score and an intrinsic value around CA$185.55 per share, a roughly 30.8% discount to price. The Excess Returns framework uses book value CA$67.37, stable value CA$70.09, stable EPS CA$10.18, and a cost of equity CA$5.04 to derive value. Return on equity is forecast near 14.5%. The analysis notes sector risk from capital requirements, loan quality, and higher funding costs. In short, the rally looks stretched relative to fundamentals, though the stock shows potential if earnings and capital dynamics hold.
