EZTEC stock rating upgraded by JPMorgan on discounted valuation

Investing.com - JPMorgan has upgraded Brazilian real estate developer EZTEC (EZTC3:BZ) from Neutral to Overweight, while raising its price target to R$20.50 from R$16.00.

The upgrade is based on EZTEC’s discounted valuation, with JPMorgan citing an attractive 34% upside potential to its December 2026 price target and a discounted price-to-earnings ratio for 2026 at 6.1x.

JPMorgan expects a potential re-rating of the stock driven by positive news flow regarding the possible sale of the Esther tower for R$1.5-2.0 billion, which the firm anticipates will occur during 2026 or 2027.

The investment bank also noted an improvement in sentiment toward the mid and high-income segment of the real estate market, supported by a more bullish macroeconomic outlook.

Higher sales speed, particularly in inventory properties, was identified as another factor contributing to the improved outlook for EZTEC.
