The latest update is out from Truist Financial ( (TFC) ).

On May 13, 2026, Truist Financial amended its Articles of Incorporation to establish the designations, preferences, limitations and rights of a new 6.250% Series S Fixed Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, paving the way for a structured capital instrument with specific priority terms. This positions the Series S Preferred Stock as senior to common equity for dividends and liquidation, with contractual restrictions on common and junior stock dividends and repurchases if Series S dividends are not declared or set aside.

On May 15, 2026, the company issued and closed the sale of 500,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/25th interest in a share of the Series S Preferred Stock with a $25,000 liquidation preference per preferred share, under an effective shelf registration. The transaction, supported by a syndicate of major underwriters and related deposit and receipt arrangements, strengthens Truist’s regulatory capital structure and diversifies its funding base through non-cumulative perpetual preferred equity.

Spark’s Take on TFC Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TFC is a Outperform.

The score reflects improving profitability and a constructive price trend, supported by attractive valuation (low P/E and strong dividend). Offsetting this, the financial profile still shows past earnings/cash-flow unevenness and the latest call highlighted ongoing NII/NIM pressure and competitive deposit dynamics, limiting upside confidence.
