With significant analyst and hedge fund sentiment, alongside a low forward price-to-earnings (PE) ratio, ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR) secures a spot on our list of the most undervalued AI stocks to buy now. Amid an internal accounting investigation, the stock has slid nearly 50% and 45% on a one-year and year-to-date basis, respectively. Analysts at Jefferies revisited the stock on February 23, 2026, and noted that the stock had fallen enough, making its current valuation attractive. Although the firm reduced the target on the stock from $175 to $135, it remains positive on the company's outlook despite the concerns surrounding AI's impact on the R&D industry. While acknowledging the potential pressure that AI will put on labor-intensive companies, such as ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR), the firm says AI will not disrupt the industry to the extent the market is predicting. Jefferies upgraded the stock from ‘Hold' to ‘Buy'. Jefferies Bullish on ICON (ICLR)
