Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Mackenzie Investments, part of IGM Financial (TSX:IGM), has rolled out four new ETFs and marked the occasion by opening trading at the Toronto Stock Exchange. This move puts fresh attention on the parent company’s broader product shelf.

IGM Financial’s recent ETF launches arrive while the share price trades at CA$81.21, with the stock easing over the past week and month but still showing a strong year to date share price return and very large multi year total shareholder returns that indicate momentum has been building over a longer horizon.

IGM Financial now trades at a discount to both intrinsic estimates and analyst targets after a strong run, while the share price has cooled in recent weeks. Is that gap a sign for caution, or is the stock mispriced?

Most Popular Narrative: 7% Undervalued

IGM Financial last closed at CA$81.21, while the most followed narrative pegs fair value at CA$87.25 based on a 7.21% discount rate. That gap rests on the idea that slow top line expectations can still support higher profitability and shareholder returns.

The market may be overestimating IGM's ability to maintain high AUM and earnings growth, as ongoing structural shifts toward low-cost passive products, robo-advisors, and digital-first platforms could erode fee income and market share, potentially limiting revenue expansion and pressuring long-term net margins.

Despite operational streamlining and integration, IGM remains heavily reliant on traditional distribution and advisor-led models, which may face disruption from changing investor preferences among Millennials and Gen Z for digital and self-directed solutions, posing a headwind to organic revenue and client growth.

See why 24 investors see IGM Financial as 7% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of CA$87.25 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the narrative could be challenged if digital competitors win more assets away from IGM Financial or if fee compression erodes the expected margin uplift.
