Executive summary

Aflac provides supplemental health and life insurance, including cover for cancer, accidents, hospital stays and disability, that pays cash benefits directly to policyholders. It operates in the United States, where policies are largely offered through employers at the workplace, and in Japan, where it has a large presence. The two businesses are organised as Aflac Japan and Aflac U.S.

Aflac earns money from premiums paid by policyholders and from investment income on the assets backing its policies. Revenue is $18.1 billion over the last twelve months, but revenue growth over three years is -3.6% a year. The operating margin is 33.3%, and the business earns a profit of 21% on the capital invested in it. The dividend yield is 2.0%.

StocksXray gives Aflac Inc an X-Ray Score of 35 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 8% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is profitability (50) and its weakest is growth (8).

Our fair value (the average of the valid models) is $122.92 (range $95.01 to $123.72). At $123.27 the stock trades 0% above that value, so the label is "Fair" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value is the average of up to 15 valuation models, most of them anchored to the company's own multiples, so it stays near the price and should be read as a range, not a point. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
