An update from Huntington Bancshares ( (HBAN) ) is now available.
On January 6, 2026, Huntington Bancshares and Cadence Bank shareholders overwhelmingly approved the planned merger of Cadence into The Huntington National Bank, as well as the issuance of Huntington common stock needed to complete the deal. At Huntington’s special meeting that day, about 77% of eligible shares were represented, with roughly 99% of votes cast backing the share issuance proposal and about 95% supporting a potential adjournment authority that ultimately was not needed, clearing a major governance hurdle for the transaction. The approval moves the banks closer to combining their regional franchises into a larger, more geographically diverse institution, with management from both sides highlighting the opportunity to broaden their footprint, deepen community-focused, relationship banking, and pursue enhanced growth in customer reach and shareholder value as they work toward closing, targeted for February 1, 2026, subject to remaining customary conditions.
The most recent analyst rating on (HBAN) stock is a Buy with a $21.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Huntington Bancshares stock, see the HBAN Stock Forecast page.
