Key Analysis Points for Essent Group Ltd.

What Drove ESNT's Score

Essent Group Ltd. (ESNT) scores Sell (30.0), and the composite conceals a 69-point disagreement between its dimensions. It is strongest on valuation at 78 and AI Alpha (gem) at 66, and weakest on competitive moat at 22 and analyst consensus at 9. A stock can carry valuation that high while analyst consensus sits at 9; the composite averages that tension away, which is why the breakdown is worth reading before the headline number. See Q-Score methodology for how these dimensions are weighted and combined.
