IMO one of the best stocks to hold long term - good dividend , long and strong earnings with lots of cash on the balance sheet . And on sale this week !!

I don't see how a weak Yen is good for AFLAC. This should pressure results I would think, possibly through the year. Looking forward to hearing management address that.

I started with AFLAC before anyone knew what AFLAC ment (1976) Was proud to be a district manager. That's what we were called before coordinators. When I started with the company you just went out and sold direct, (No groups) we used to cold call on farmers at night. After 40 years I hung it up but I saved my Aflac stock and over the years it has treated me well. Just want to say thank you too Aflac, Russ and most important J.K.

Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of $1.07 (beat by $0.03), GAAP EPS of $1.35 (beat by $0.31). Revenue of $5.9B (beat by $400M), up 5.4% Y/Y.
Great company.

Aflac seems like a solid choice. They are my medical insurance plan at my company. What do you all think ?
C
52 week high. Aflac going strong even in the volatile market.

I love Aflac ! Aflac has made a lot of people rich over the last 50 years. Buy Aflac and hold on to it while reinvest the dividends !

Employees allege pressure tactics similar to Wells Fargo
Back again after my correct prediction from 3 months ago. This will hit $50 within a month after earnings.

If AFL was trading at just its average PE of 10, we'd easily have a $75+ stock ...

This is a great company and pays great dividend. Aflac CEO is there for long time and he is the second CEO in fortune 500 company after Warren Buffet who has been holding position of CEO for years.

OK. Earnings not great, but considering the Covid-19 impact, not bad. Adjusted earnings $1.23 was above estimates of $1.10. Back to $45 over the next few weeks as the Covid-19 panic fades.

Don’t know about you but I’m excited about the split. I’m a brand new investor and this is my first split. Win or lose I’m ready for the learning experience. And excited to see what happens Friday. I only have a few shares but I’ll be happy with a few dollars. I’m just trying learn how you pros do it. Best luck 2 every1
M
trailing p/e ratio seems to be lower than other insurance companies, I assume that means this company is pretty undervalued
S
Looks like a good buy here under $42.50. Anyone buying or adding?
E
Revenue down by .66% from last year, but EPS up by 5% (6 cents). cheap stock healthy book.
Bullish
K
It looks like a split coming soon for AFL
S
Aflac is increasing their dividend in 2021 from $0.28 per quarter to $0.33
E
It's been along time coming but AFL has finally broken thru the psychological $60 ceiling!!!
Great company.
