Assessing AIA Group (SEHK:1299) Valuation After Recent Results And Mixed Share Price Performance
Goldman Sachs: The valuation of Prudential (02378.HK) and AIA (01299.HK) is attractive, with the recent share price pullback presenting a buying opportunity.
Goldman Sachs issued a research report noting that the share prices of Prudential (02378.HK) and AIA fell by 8% and 4%, respectively, last Friday (13th). Investors cited a combination of factors including Manulife Financial's weak sales for Q4 2025 announced on February 12 and concerns over AI-related disruptions. The firm believes that there is limited direct relevance to be drawn from Manulife's results, as the weak sales in Q4 2025 were influenced by a high base effect and regulatory changes leading to disruptions in the brokerage channel. Compared to Manulife, AIA and Prudential rely less on their brokerage channels for annualized new contributions.
