Weekly Chart
JPMorgan Chase (JPM)

  • Earnings Performance: Posted strong Q2 results with EPS and revenue beats (EPS $5.07 vs. $4.62 expected, revenue $46B vs. $43.9B forecast). Fixed-income trading revenue rose 14% to $5.69 billion, driven by market volatility and clarity in Trump’s tax policies.
  • Challenges: Net interest income was lighter than expected, and rising expenses raised concerns. Shares dipped post-earnings due to these factors.
  • Innovation: Advanced blockchain initiatives, including tokenized collateral settlements with BlackRock and Barclays, and explored a joint stablecoin project with other major banks.
  • Market Position: Remains the largest U.S. bank by assets, with a market cap of $797.24 billion as of July 14, 2025.

JPMorgan Chase (JPM)
  • Performance Context: Q2 2025 net income annualized at ~$20.3B ($5.07 EPS × 1B shares × 4 quarters). Revenue of $46B reflects strong trading and investment banking, but NII and expense pressures temper FCF growth.

    • 2024 net income: $59 billion.
    • Assume Q2 2025 annualized net income of $60 billion.
    • Add back non-cash items and adjust for working capital: Assume FCF of $65 billion for 2025.
    • Growth: 4% annually for 5 years, reflecting market leadership and capital returns, but offset by NII and expense challenges.
    • FCF Projections (2025–2029): $65B, $67.6B, $70.3B, $73.1B, $76B.
  • Terminal Value: Year 5 FCF ($76B) × (1 + 2.5%) / (WACC – 2.5%).
  • WACC: Beta ~1.1, risk-free rate 4%, equity risk premium 6%, debt-to-equity ratio ~1.5. WACC ≈ 8.7%.
  • Terminal Value: $76B × 1.025 / (0.087 – 0.025) = $1,256B.
  • Present Value:
    • Discount FCFs at 8.7%: $65B/(1.087) + $67.6B/(1.087²) + $70.3B/(1.087³) + $73.1B/(1.087⁴) + $76B/(1.087⁵) = $274.3B.
    • Discount terminal value: $1,256B/(1.087⁵) = $839.6B.
    • Total enterprise value: $274.3B + $839.6B = $1,113.9B.
  • Net Debt: Assume $300B (based on JPM’s larger balance sheet).
  • Equity Value: $1,113.9B – $300B = $813.9B.
  • Shares Outstanding: 2.86 billion (Yahoo Finance estimate).
  • Ideal Price: $813.9B / 2.86B = $284.58 per share.
  • Current Price Context: As of July 14, 2025, JPM traded at ~$240 (based on 20.3% YTD gain). The DCF suggests an 18% upside, aligning with its forward P/E of 15.06x vs. industry 14.58x.
