CBIZ Inc (CBZ) Continues To Slide Despite Leadership Change

CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE:CBZ) is one of the 10 most undervalued industrial stocks to buy according to analysts. Faiza Alwy, an analyst at Deutsche Bank, initiated coverage of CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE:CBZ) with a Hold rating on January 12. She assigned the shares a price target of $60, which is below the median Wall Street analyst price target of $85, according to 3 other analysts covering the stock. Her price target offers a further 33% upside from the current levels.

She highlighted that macroeconomic headwinds and execution-related challenges contributed to significant stock underperformance in 2025. The analyst noted that elevated expectations following the Marcum acquisition also weighed on the shares. However, Faiza Alwy anticipates the operating environment to improve over the course of 2026. She believes the company’s current valuation is appropriate and views the shares as fairly valued at present. Despite her optimistic view, the stock has fallen 16% since her rating.

On December 18, CBZ announced three new senior leaders to power the company’s growth strategy. Investors’ patience is continually being tested, though, as none of these developments has yet succeeded in arresting the stock price decline.
