Key statistics
The headline figures for KKR.

What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of KKR's valuation, growth and risks.
KKR trades at 28.54 times trailing earnings, which puts its P/E 73.0% above the Financial Services median of 16.5. The peer comparison on this page calls that a premium to peers. Measured against sales, the stock is cheaper: its price-to-sales ratio of 3.13 is 17.6% below the sector median of 3.8. Trailing earnings stand at $3.07 a share.
With revenue growth of 7.80%, KKR is 3.9 percentage points slower than the sector median of 11.7%. The business converts sales into profit at a net margin of 12.20% and an operating margin of 20.65%. It generates a return on equity of 7.28%, below the sector median of 13.8%. The balance sheet and payout round out the picture, with debt-to-equity of 0.70 and a trailing dividend yield of 0.88% ($0.76 a share a year).
KKR reported $1.63 a share for the July 30, 2026 report, against an analyst estimate of $1.43, a beat of 13.99%. The shares moved up 0.45% in the following session.
KKR has beaten estimates in 7 of the last 8 reports, yet the stock fell in the first session after 4 of those 7 beats, so a beat has not reliably lifted the share price. The biggest earlier reaction followed the February 5, 2026 report, when EPS missed the estimate by 1.75% and the stock still rose 4.06%. Analysts forecast EPS of $6.50 for this fiscal year, a rise of 33.4%, and $7.37 for the next, a rise of 13.5%.
With a P/E of 28.54, 73.0% above the sector median, KKR is a premium to peers, which means weaker results would be judged against a higher bar. The price of KKR typically moves by 1.76% in a day, based on the 30-day standard deviation of daily returns. The trend will keep working against holders until the price climbs back above its moving averages. The price sits 40.48% below the 52-week high of $144.84.

- Two levels matter most right now: the 20-day EMA at $91.73, just above the price, and the 52-week low at $82.67, just below it.
- A 14-day RSI of 31.8 falls in the bearish zone, and the MACD line is negative. Readings above 70 or below 30 are the usual signs of stretched momentum.
- In the first session after the July 30, 2026 report, the share price rose 0.45%. Over the last 8 reports, KKR has beaten estimates in 7.
KKR sits below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages ($100.52 and $100.87), and that is why the trend reads down. A recovery would begin by moving back above the 50-day. The first level overhead is the 20-day EMA at $91.73.
KKR's next level below the price is the 52-week low at $82.67. With the RSI in the bearish zone, momentum still leans toward lower prices.

Long-term scenarios
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 KKR, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in KKR today could grow to about $26,589 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $118,440 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $5,969. The simulation models price only; at today's 0.88% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
KKR Stock Price Prediction: 2030
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $127 for KKR by 2030 in the base case, from $86.21 today (1.5x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $49.56. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on KKR's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
