SS&C Technologies Holdings (SSNC) is back in focus after reporting fourth quarter 2025 results that topped analyst expectations, paired with upbeat guidance and fresh client wins that point to ongoing business momentum.

The earnings beat and fresh client wins, including new agreements with Allspring, Saltus and Rareview Capital, come after a softer patch for the share price. The 30-day share price return shows an 11.09% decline and the 1-year total shareholder return shows a 9.66% decline, while the 3-year total shareholder return of 29.61% suggests longer term holders have still seen gains, and near term momentum has recently been under pressure.

With SS&C shares weaker over the past year, solid Q4 revenue, rising full year earnings and a price still below analyst targets, the key question is whether this is a mispriced compounder or if future growth is already reflected in the valuation.

Most Popular Narrative: 22.4% Undervalued

At a last close of $77.39 versus a narrative fair value of about $99.67, SS&C Technologies Holdings is framed as meaningfully undervalued, with execution on expansion and automation sitting at the core of that view.

The integration of AI driven automation platforms like Blue Prism, designed to enhance operational efficiency, is anticipated to reduce costs and improve net margins over time.

The strategic lift out agreement with Insignia Financial is set to contribute significantly to SS&C's revenue in the latter half of 2025, supporting a stronger revenue forecast.

Want to see what kind of revenue path and margin profile sit behind that fair value? The most followed narrative leans on specific growth, profitability and valuation assumptions. These assumptions are all laid out in one place, along with how they feed into the discount rate used to get to today’s number.

Result: Fair Value of $99.67 (UNDERVALUED)

However, foreign exchange swings and US$6.4b in net debt could pressure cash flows and challenge the optimistic earnings and margin assumptions behind this undervaluation story.
