Is CBL & Associates Properties Inc overvalued?

CBL & Associates Properties Inc carries a Smart Value Score of 66/100 (Grade B), which we rate Buy. That score blends growth, quality, and valuation into one read. On valuation specifically, our conservative DCF puts intrinsic value at $23.97 against the $51.91 price, so on cash flow terms the market is paying a premium for CBL & Associates Properties Inc's growth.

What is the price target of CBL & Associates Properties Inc (CBL)?

The 12-month analyst consensus target is $63.00, about 21.4% above the current $51.91. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.

What is the future stock price of CBL by 2030?

Our research-backed model puts the 2030 base case at $33.15, built from revenue projections, a growth-adjusted P/S multiple, net debt, and share dilution. It is a scenario rather than a prediction, and the bull and bear cases around it matter more than the single number when you are sizing a position.

What is the intrinsic value of CBL & Associates Properties Inc (CBL)?

Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $23.97, a -47.4% margin of safety versus today's $51.91. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A negative reading means the price is running ahead of that conservative estimate, leaving little downside cushion if growth slows.

What is CBL & Associates Properties Inc's revenue?

CBL & Associates Properties Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $588.15M. Revenue scale anchors the valuation multiples and shows whether growth is reaching the top line, so it is best read alongside margin and growth trends to see if that revenue is getting more profitable over time.

Altman Z-Score?

CBL & Associates Properties Inc's Altman Z-Score is 0.65, which places it in the distress. The Altman Z-Score gauges bankruptcy risk from profitability, leverage, and asset efficiency, and a higher reading points to lower financial distress risk.
