US Bancorp ( (USB) ) just unveiled an announcement.
On January 27, 2026, U.S. Bancorp’s board, acting on a recommendation from its Compensation and Human Resources Committee, adopted a new Executive Change in Control Severance Plan to update the company’s change-in-control benefits and better align them with market practices among comparable banks while adding protections for the institution. The plan covers executive officers and certain other officers, including current named executive officers, and provides lump-sum severance equal to two times base salary, two times target annual incentive, a prorated target annual incentive for the year of termination, and six months of employer-paid health coverage costs for participants who are involuntarily terminated without cause or who resign for good reason within 24 months following a change in control, subject to signing a participation agreement, executing a release of claims, and complying with confidentiality, non-solicitation, and non-competition covenants, and generally precludes receiving duplicative severance under other company arrangements.
The most recent analyst rating on (USB) stock is a Buy with a $65.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on US Bancorp stock, see the USB Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on USB Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, USB is a Outperform.
The score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (strong margins and cash flow growth) and a constructive earnings outlook (4–6% 2026 revenue growth and 200+ bps positive operating leverage), supported by reasonable valuation (12.45 P/E and 3.75% yield). Technicals are positive longer-term but show mild near-term softness (below the 20-day average and low stochastics).
