BlackRock (NYSE: BLK) is scheduled to report its fiscal Q3 2023 results on Friday, October 13, 2023. We expect BlackRock
BLK
to beat the consensus estimates for revenues and earnings. The company outperformed the earnings expectations in the last quarter, while the revenues were slightly below the mark. It reported total revenues of $4.46 billion – down 1% y-o-y, primarily driven by a marginal drop in the base fees (total investment advisory, administration fees & securities lending revenue) and distribution revenues. In terms of Assets under Management, the firm posted an average AuM of $9.19 trillion in the quarter – up 2% y-o-y. We expect the top line to see a year-on-year growth in the third quarter.

We estimate BlackRock’s valuation to be around $803 per share which is 24% above the current market price. Interestingly, BlackRock stock had a Sharpe Ratio of 0.4 since early 2017, which is lower than 0.6 for the S&P 500 Index over the same period. This compares with the Sharpe of 1.23 for the Trefis Reinforced Value portfolio. Sharpe is a measure of return per unit of risk, and high-performance portfolios can provide the best of both worlds.
