Valuation and analyst view

CAE had a market capitalization of USD 7.7 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 37.79 as of October 15, 2026. Jefferies maintained its Hold rating with the USD 26.00 target, while RBC Capital maintained a Buy rating and a CAD 46.00 target on October 9, 2026, according to Markets Insider.
