    Gen Digital (GEN) is back in focus after rolling out its AI native Norton Neo browser globally for free and publishing stark 2026 cyber risk predictions that spotlight web browsers as a primary front line for fraud.

    See our latest analysis for Gen Digital.

    The stock has been treading water lately, with a roughly flat year to date share price return around the $27.67 level. Even so, its 3 year total shareholder return of 36.62 percent signals that longer term investors have still been rewarded and may be watching these AI focused launches for the next leg of momentum.

    If Gen Digital’s AI native push has you rethinking where growth could come from next, it might be worth scanning high growth tech and AI stocks for other potential tech standouts.

    With shares still lagging analysts’ targets despite solid earnings growth and fresh AI products, investors now face a key question: is Gen Digital quietly undervalued, or are markets already pricing in its next wave of browser led growth?

    Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 16% Undervalued

    With Gen Digital last closing at $27.67 against a narrative fair value near $32.85, the storyline leans toward meaningful upside if the projections hold.

    The transition to a high margin, recurring revenue subscription model now bolstered by MoneyLion's rapidly scaling, soon to be membership based financial wellness business enhances revenue predictability, boosts ARPU, and expands operating margins, with further upside potential as financial wellness features and cross segment bundling are woven into the core offering.

    Read the complete narrative.

    Curious how steady subscription cash flows, higher margins, and a richer earnings base all combine into that upside case? Want the full playbook behind this valuation path?

    Result: Fair Value of $32.85 (UNDERVALUED)

    Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.

    However, intensifying competition from built in device security and potential integration hiccups around MoneyLion could both constrain margins and challenge the upside thesis.
