On Monday, Trisura Group Ltd. (TSX:TSU) (OTC:TRRSF) received an upward revision on its stock price target from BMO Capital Markets, following a robust first-quarter performance that exceeded expectations. The stock price target has been increased to C$54.00 from the previous C$52.00, while the Outperform rating remains in place.
The company's operating earnings per share (EPS) for the first quarter of 2024 was reported at C$0.68, surpassing both the analyst's and the consensus estimates, which stood at C$0.64 and C$0.65 respectively. The positive results were attributed to enhanced investment income and improved underwriting income in both the U.S. and Canadian markets.
Trisura has demonstrated a consistent track record of strong financial results, with the past five quarters showing solid performance since the fourth quarter of 2022. This was when the company experienced a reinsurance recoverable writedown. As of now, the run-off of this reinsurance program is fully removed from Trisura's financials.
The firm's outlook has also seen a positive shift, with AM Best upgrading Trisura's outlook to Stable from Negative. According to BMO Capital Markets, this series of favorable developments positions Trisura for potential acceleration in both its earnings and stock multiple.
Investors and market watchers of Trisura Group Ltd. are likely to monitor the company's progress closely, as the firm continues to build on its recent successes and navigates the financial landscape moving forward.
