Broker Cavendish maintains a 'sell' rating on Ashmore Group, citing that its shares already price in a strong recovery in client flows and assets under management. Despite raising management fee assumptions and forecasting a 35% rise in adjusted earnings per share for 2027, Cavendish cut EBITDA forecasts by about 10% due to higher variable remuneration costs. Ashmore's reported profit before tax rose 17% in 2026, helped by a 104% increase in seed capital income, but underlying profitability was weaker. The broker's target price of 171p suggests a 21% downside from the current share price of 217.8p, indicating limited upside potential for investors.
