KFY:NYSEKorn Ferry analysis

Korn Ferry is trading at $71.1, comfortably above its 20‑day SMA of $71.19 and the 50‑day SMA of $68.78, signaling a short‑term bullish bias. The RSI sits at 53, indicating neutral momentum, while the MACD histogram is negative and the signal line is bearish, suggesting some near‑term downside pressure. Volume is on an increasing trend, supporting the price advance, and the computed beta of 0.45 points to low market‑wide volatility despite a 30‑day price volatility of roughly 38%. The stock’s price is well below its DCF‑derived fair value of $94.4, offering an estimated upside of about 14% and a 13% upside to the consensus target median of $82.
Fundamentally, KFY trades at a forward P/E of 11.2 versus an industry average of 32.2, underscoring its relative cheapness. A dividend yield of 3.16% with a payout ratio under 40% appears sustainable given strong operating cash flow and a solid balance sheet. Recent earnings beat on revenue (+7.2% YoY) and a narrow EPS beat reinforce the growth narrative, and analysts have upgraded to a "strong buy" with a median price target of $82.
