What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of CPF's valuation, growth and risks.
Central Pacific Financial Corp (CPF) trades on a trailing P/E of 12.09, against a Financial Services median of 16.5. That places its multiple 26.7% below the sector median P/E, and the peer comparison on this page rates the P/E as a discount to peers.

- Two levels matter most right now: the 52-week high at $40.99, which sits above the price, and the 50-day SMA at $37.01, which sits below it.
- A 14-day RSI of 62.5 sits in the bullish zone, and the MACD line is positive. Readings above 70 or below 30 would signal stretched momentum.
- CPF's share price rose 1.06% in the first session after its July 24, 2026 report. Across the last 8 reports, the company beat estimates in 5 of them.
CPF trades above its 50-day and 200-day moving averages ($37.01 and $35.32), which is what makes the trend up; losing the 50-day would be the first warning. The nearest level under the price is the 50-day SMA at $37.01.
CPF's next level overhead is the 52-week high of $40.99. Its RSI is in the bullish band, a reading that backs the current direction without signalling an overstretched move.

Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in CPF, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 4-year Monte Carlo simulation, based on 10 years of price history, projects that a $10,000 investment in CPF today could grow to about $12,283 by 2030 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $29,838 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $5,057. The simulation models price only; at today's 3.07% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
CPF Stock Price Prediction 2030: Simulated Scenarios
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $46.46 for CPF by 2030 in the base case, from $37.82 today (1.2x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $19.12. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on CPF's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.

| 2027 | $25.55 | $39.82 | $62.05 | |
