For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals.

Achieving those goals is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores, a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on popular investing methodologies, namely value, growth, and momentum. The Style Scores can help you narrow down which stocks are better for your portfolio and which ones can beat the market over the long-term.

Value investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, and Price/Cash Flow, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.

Established in 1893, Popular, Inc. is a full-service financial services provider with operations in Puerto Rico, the U.S. mainland and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands.

BPOP boasts a Value Style Score of A and VGM Score of B, and holds a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) rating. Shares of Popular are trading at a forward earnings multiple of 10X , as well as a PEG Ratio of 0.6, a Price/Cash Flow ratio of 17.9X, and a Price/Sales ratio of 1.8X.

Many value investors pay close attention to a company's earnings as well. For BPOP, one analyst revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.83 to $11.37 per share for 2025. BPOP boasts an average earnings surprise of 12%.
