Our model assigns BANK BRADESCO a Hold rating, with a composite score of 60.2/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #669 of 7,333 stocks, BBD presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
BBD's quality score of 32/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of 41.7% (sector avg: 8.9%), gross margins of 91.7% (sector avg: 76.5%), net margins of 23.9% (sector avg: 21.5%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
BBD carries a solid value score of 71/100, pointing to an attractively priced stock relative to peers. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 2.77x, a P/B ratio of 1.63x. This score suggests reasonable compensation for the risks involved, with potential upside if the market recognizes the stock's underlying worth.
With an investment score of 53/100, BBD exhibits moderate growth-oriented spending. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 6.6% vs. a sector average of 10.8% and a return on assets of 3.4% (sector: 1.2%). The company appears to be balancing growth investments with capital returns, though the pace of investment may not be enough to accelerate top-line growth meaningfully.
BANK BRADESCO (BBD) is exhibiting exceptional momentum with a score of 90/100, placing it among the strongest trending stocks in the market. Revenue growth stands at 6.6% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.61 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Stocks with momentum scores this high have historically outperformed over the following 3–12 months, suggesting BBD may continue to benefit from strong institutional interest and positive price trends.
With a stability score of 50/100, BBD exhibits average financial resilience. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.61 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 153.00x (sector avg: 0.5x). While the balance sheet is not a major concern, the stock is subject to typical market volatility and may experience sharper drawdowns during risk-off episodes.
The short interest score of 59/100 for BBD suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 153.00x). With a $18.1B market cap (large-cap), BANK BRADESCO may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
BANK BRADESCO offers an attractive dividend yield of 18.3%, placing it among the higher-yielding stocks in its peer group. This compares to a sector average dividend yield of 1.9%. A yield this high can provide meaningful income, but investors should verify the payout is sustainable by examining the payout ratio, free cash flow coverage, and any history of dividend cuts.
BANK BRADESCO is a large-cap company in the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, ranked #35 of 50 in its sector (30th percentile) and #669 of 7,333 overall (91st percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 41.7% exceeding the 8.9% sector median and operating margins of 8.3% below the 17.0% sector average. This below-median ranking suggests BBD faces competitive challenges relative to stronger Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate peers.
While BBD currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the FINANCE, INSURANCE, AND REAL ESTATE sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

AUDIT DATA AS OF DEC 31, 2024 (Q3 FY2024)
We rate BANK BRADESCO (BBD) as a Hold with a composite score of 60.2/100 at a current price of $4.11. The stock presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to warrant new accumulation nor weak enough to justify selling for existing holders. Our factors are split, and the overall profile suggests patience is warranted.
The rating is primarily driven by strength in momentum (90th percentile) and value (71th percentile), which together account for the majority of the composite score. Offsetting weakness in quality (32th percentile) and stability (50th percentile) tempers our overall conviction. We assign a No Moat rating (28/100), Medium uncertainty, and Standard capital allocation.
Key items to watch: balance sheet deleveraging progress. Any material change in these dynamics could warrant a reassessment of our rating. The moat trend is stable, which suggests the competitive landscape is stable for now.
BANK BRADESCO holds a mid-tier position (#35 of 50) within the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, based on our composite quantitative scoring across quality, value, momentum, and stability factors. The composite score of 60.2/100 places it at rank #669 in our full 7,333-stock universe. With a $18.1B market capitalization, BANK BRADESCO operates at meaningful scale within the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, providing competitive advantages in distribution, procurement, and customer reach.
The outlook is moderately positive, with revenue expanding at 7% and favorable momentum (90th percentile) reflecting constructive market sentiment. The business shows steady execution, though the growth rate is below the levels typically associated with high-conviction growth stories. Momentum confirmation provides support for the current price level.
The margin cascade tells an important story: gross margins of 92% (+15.2pp vs sector) narrow to operating margins of 8% (-8.8pp vs sector) and net margins of 23.9%, yielding a gross-to-net conversion rate of 26%. This conversion rate is typical for the sector, suggesting a standard cost structure without notable efficiency advantages or disadvantages.
We do not assign BANK BRADESCO a meaningful economic moat, scoring 28/100 on our composite assessment. The ROIC-WACC spread of -22.1% is the primary signal of economic value creation. Current fundamentals do not demonstrate the kind of durable competitive advantages — such as superior returns on invested capital, margin superiority, or reinvestment efficiency — that would protect the company from competitive erosion over the long term. The highest-scoring pillar, margin superiority, reached only 10.5/20.
The strongest moat sources are margin superiority (10.5/20) and growth durability (9.4/20). GM 92% vs sector 77%, OM 8% vs sector 17%. Rev growth 7%, 8yr history. These pillars form the core of BANK BRADESCO's competitive identity and are the primary drivers of excess returns in our framework.
Areas of relative weakness include reinvestment efficiency (0.6/20) and economic value creation (1.8/20). Capital turnover 0.66x. Improvement in these areas could meaningfully widen the moat over time, while deterioration would be an early warning of competitive erosion.
Our moat trend assessment is Stable. Multi-year ROIC and operating margin trajectories show neither meaningful improvement nor deterioration, suggesting the competitive position is steady. We expect BANK BRADESCO's moat profile to remain largely unchanged absent a material shift in return on capital or industry dynamics.
At a current price of $4.11, BANK BRADESCO appears undervalued relative to its fundamentals. Our value factor score of 71/100 reflects a composite assessment across multiple valuation metrics including price-to-earnings, price-to-book, EV/EBITDA, and price-to-sales ratios relative to both sector peers and the broader market. The stock screens as attractively priced on a majority of these measures, suggesting the market may be underappreciating the underlying fundamentals.
The stock currently trades at EV/EBITDA of 2.8x (discounted to peers), P/B of 1.6x, P/S of 0.9x. We evaluate these multiples in the context of both absolute levels and sector-relative positioning to form our valuation view.
Key profit drivers include gross margins of 92% providing a solid profitability foundation, moderate revenue growth of 7%, returns on equity of 41.7% driving shareholder value creation. The margin cascade from 92% gross to 8% operating to 23.9% net reveals the company's cost structure and reinvestment intensity. Our analysis indicates that profit quality raises some durability concerns, with the quality factor at the 32th percentile.
The margin profile shows gross margins of 92%, operating margins of 8%, net margins of 23.9%. Return metrics include ROE of 41.7% and ROA of 3.4%. Relative to the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, gross margins are 15.2 percentage points above the sector median of 77%, and ROE of 41.7% compares to a sector median of 8.9%.
The balance sheet reflects high leverage with D/E of 153%, which may limit financial flexibility, a dividend yield of 18.28%, revenue growth of 7%. The sector median D/E is 0%, putting BANK BRADESCO at higher leverage than the typical peer. Elevated leverage in combination with the current margin profile warrants close monitoring for any deterioration in debt-servicing capacity.
Gross margins of 92% signal strong pricing power and brand/IP advantages — businesses with margins above 40% have historically demonstrated more resilient earnings through economic cycles.
Returns on equity of 41.7% exceed the cost of equity for most companies, indicating genuine shareholder value creation and a reinvestment engine that compounds wealth over time.
A value factor score of 71/100 suggests the market is underpricing these fundamentals, creating a potential margin of safety for new investors.
Positive momentum (90th percentile) indicates institutional accumulation and favorable technical dynamics that tend to persist in the intermediate term.
A 18.28% dividend yield provides income while you wait, and dividends historically account for a significant portion of total equity returns.
Elevated leverage (153% D/E) amplifies downside risk and limits management's financial flexibility in adverse scenarios.
Below-average quality (32th percentile) raises durability concerns about the fundamental profile and increases the risk of negative earnings surprises.
We assign a Medium uncertainty rating to BANK BRADESCO. The stock presents a balanced risk profile: significant leverage (153% debt-to-equity) and weak quality scores (32th percentile). While not risk-free, the core business fundamentals are adequate to withstand moderate economic stress, and the range of potential outcomes around our fair value estimate is manageable.
Specific risk factors that inform our assessment include: significant leverage (153% debt-to-equity); weak quality scores (32th percentile); low beta of 0.61 — while defensive, this may indicate limited upside participation in bull markets. Each of these factors independently widens the distribution of potential outcomes, and in combination they create a risk profile that demands careful position sizing. The stability factor at the 50th percentile and quality factor at the 32th percentile provide a quantitative summary of the overall risk landscape.
Key risk mitigants include: healthy gross margins of 92% provide a buffer against cost pressures; a 18.28% dividend yield anchors total return. These factors partially offset the identified risks and provide downside protection in adverse scenarios. On balance, the risk-reward profile is favorable for long-term investors.
We rate BANK BRADESCO's capital allocation as Standard. Management has shown adequate — though not exceptional — stewardship of shareholder capital. Returns on equity stand at 41.7%, and the balance sheet is managed within acceptable parameters (D/E: 153%). Exemplary allocators typically sustain ROE above 20% and D/E below 50%; BANK BRADESCO falls short on at least one dimension.
There is room for improvement in optimizing the capital structure or enhancing shareholder returns. The 18.28% dividend yield provides some income return, but the overall capital allocation framework would benefit from either higher reinvestment returns, improved balance sheet efficiency, or increased shareholder distributions. We will monitor for signs of strategic improvement that could warrant an upgrade.
In summary, BANK BRADESCO receives a Hold rating with a composite score of 60.2/100 (rank #669 of 7,333). Our quantitative framework assigns a No Moat (28/100, trend: stable), Medium uncertainty, and Standard capital allocation. The average factor score across quality, value, momentum, stability, and investment is 59/100.
Our analysis supports a neutral stance on BANK BRADESCO. While the quantitative profile is not weak enough to warrant selling, it lacks the multi-factor strength required for a buy recommendation. Existing holders should maintain positions and monitor for catalysts — either fundamental improvement or valuation compression — that would shift the risk-reward balance.
