Bank of Montreal (BMO) remains a buy, supported by robust segment growth, dividend strength, and a conservative balance sheet, despite a rich valuation. BMO's Q2 saw YoY revenue growth across all business lines, with wealth and capital markets as standouts, and net income up 34% YoY. EPS growth expectations are strong, with analyst consensus forecasting +20% YoY EPS growth for FY26 and upward earnings revisions outpacing downgrades.
BMO Financial has hired David Descoteaux from UBS to head its U.S. M&A team for capital markets and commercial banking, according to a memo seen by Reuters, finalizing a months-long search to fill the role as the Canadian lender combined teams.
Bank of Montreal stock currently trades at an unprecedented 17x P/E, well above its historical 10-12x range. BMO's recent outperformance is driven by expectations of U.S.-centric growth post-Bank of the West integration, but I remain skeptical of sustained high returns. I maintain a Hold rating on BMO with a fair value target of $140 CAD/share, citing valuation risks and macro sensitivity.
