Toronto Dominion Bank (TSX:TD) Valuation Check As New Funding Plans And CEO Conference Spotlight Draw Interest

Toronto-Dominion Bank (TSX:TD) is back in focus after announcing new fixed income offerings and confirming its CEO will speak at the RBC Capital Markets Canadian Bank CEO Conference, drawing fresh attention to the bank’s funding plans.

See our latest analysis for Toronto-Dominion Bank.

These funding moves come after a strong run in the shares, with a 16.4% 90 day share price return and a 1 year total shareholder return of 74.5%. This suggests momentum has been building as investors reassess risk and income prospects.

If TD’s recent funding and conference spotlight has you rethinking your financials exposure, it could be a good time to broaden your search with fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.

TD’s shares have surged; however, the current price still sits at a reported 23% discount to one estimate of intrinsic value, while trading slightly above the average analyst target. Is this a genuine opportunity, or is future growth already priced in?

Most Popular Narrative: 2.2% Overvalued

At a last close of CA$130.73 versus a most-followed fair value estimate of about CA$127.87, the narrative currently sees TD as slightly ahead of fundamentals, with the difference coming from how future earnings power is modeled.

Strong revenue growth, digital innovation, strategic restructuring, and diversified operations position TD for sustained profitability and shareholder returns in evolving financial markets.

However, steady demand across core Canadian, U.S., and wealth businesses, as well as faster progress on AI, digital, and cost cuts, could support higher revenue and margins than this cautious narrative assumes.

Another View: Market Ratios Tell A Different Story

While the most-followed fair value estimate pegs Toronto-Dominion Bank as about 2.2% overvalued, the current P/E of 11.1x paints a different picture. It sits below the peer average of 16x, below the North American Banks industry at 12x, and below a fair ratio of 13.1x suggested by regression analysis.

That gap implies the market is pricing TD more cautiously than both its peers and the fair ratio the P/E could move toward, even after strong 1 year and 5 year total returns. Is that caution a sign of lingering risk, or room for sentiment to catch up if earnings hold up?
