# Assured Guaranty Ltd. (AGO) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Financial Services / Insurance. Price $75.69, market value $3.3 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 10.1×** (5-yr avg 13.4×, 3-yr avg 9.1×). Assured Guaranty Ltd. trades at 10.1× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 13.4×: cheap by its own standards. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 10.7×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.22**. A PEG of 0.22 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / book: 0.6×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **Earnings yield: 9.9%**. The inverse of the P/E: 9.9% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Return on equity: 8.9%**. 8.9% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on assets: 2.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces 2.9% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.
