Thomson Reuters Rises 1.93% on TD Securities' Buy Rating as $240M Volume Ranks 398th

Thomson Reuters (TRI) rose 1.93% on August 28, 2025, with a trading volume of $240 million, ranking 398th in market activity. The stock’s performance followed a positive analyst upgrade from TD Securities, which elevated its rating to Buy from Hold and raised the price target to C$285 from C$275. Analyst Vince Valentini highlighted the company’s recurring revenue streams, margin expansion potential, and robust balance sheet as key drivers for a premium valuation.

The firm’s financial resilience is underscored by a 26.63% operating margin, 22.45% net margin, and a 75.26% gross margin, reflecting efficient cost management and pricing power. Thomson Reuters also maintains a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.17 and a strong interest coverage ratio of 10.32. Analysts note its focus on legal, tax, and media sectors, along with a diversified revenue base, as structural advantages.

Market sentiment remains cautiously optimistic, with a consensus price target of $177.03 and a forward P/E ratio of 45.79. Technical indicators show an RSI of 36.14 and moving averages suggesting a potential upward trend. However, risks include regulatory pressures in the business services sector and moderate volatility (beta of 0.86).
