What would LINCOLN NATIONAL CORP have to report for its valuation to change?
At $40.01, with a 9.0% required return and a 18× earnings multiple in 5 years, earnings per share must grow about -22.3% a year, to $3.42. On that path the next quarter needs diluted EPS near $1.65, against $2.12 in the quarter ended Sep 30, 2025.
Compare buying at the last close now with waiting for results: if the report moves the growth the price requires, the entry price you would accept changes with it.
