AUTO: 2026 Pricing Power And Capital Returns Will Shape Market Expectations

Analysts have trimmed their fair value estimate for Auto Trader Group from £6.35 to £5.95, reflecting a lower blended price target across recent research as firms reset assumptions on revenue growth, margins and future P/E multiples.
