â–²(8.60% Upside)
Action:DowngradedDate:04/21/26
The score is driven by solid financial health (profitability and improved leverage) and a constructive earnings outlook with strong credit/capital and expense discipline. Technicals are supportive but momentum is nearing overbought, while valuation is reasonable but not strongly boosted by the low dividend yield; cash-flow volatility remains the primary risk.
Positive Factors
Exceptional Credit Quality
Very low NPAs and net charge-offs with a sizeable allowance provide durable downside protection and reduce earnings volatility. Strong credit metrics enable continued lending growth with less provisioning, supporting stable long-term profitability and capital retention across economic cycles.
Negative Factors
Volatile Cash Generation
Large year-to-year swings in operating and free cash flow reduce predictability for capital allocation and make funding dividends, buybacks or growth initiatives harder to plan. Persistent volatility increases reliance on external funding and can constrain long-term strategic flexibility.

Bok Financial Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Apr 20, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 29, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presented multiple constructive operating themes: profitable quarter (EPS $2.58), continued and broad-based loan growth (2.1% sequential; guidance near 10% for 2026), very strong credit metrics (low NPAs and net charge-offs), disciplined expense management (expenses down $6.9M; efficiency 63.2%), resilient fee businesses (fee income $209.8M; syndication activity +40% YoY), and strong capital ratios (TCE 9.3%, CET1 12.6%). Offsetting items included near-term net interest margin compression (NII down $2.7M; margin -8 bps) and a $3B AUMA decline that pressures fee revenue, plus some seasonal funding and deposit dynamics. Management maintained mid-single-digit revenue growth guidance, trimmed NII guidance modestly, and raised fee expectations. Overall, the positives (loan growth, credit quality, expense control, fee resilience, capital strength) outweigh the near-term margin and market-driven headwinds.Positive Updates
Strong GAAP Earnings and EPS
Reported earnings of $155.8 million and diluted EPS of $2.58 for Q1 2026, demonstrating profitable core operations.
Negative Updates
Net Interest Income and Margin Compression
Net interest income fell $2.7 million and reported net interest margin declined 8 basis points sequentially (core NII excluding trading down $4.8 million and core margin down 7 bps). Management cited several small simultanous headwinds: seasonal DDA low, lower loan fees, normalization of SOFR spreads, funding costs for energy derivative margin, and full-quarter impact of November subordinated debt issuance.

Company Guidance
Management guided 2026 to continued growth with loan growth near 10% and total revenue up in the mid‑single‑digits, NII now expected at $1.42–$1.45 billion and fee income $820–$845 million, expense growth in the low single digits producing a full‑year average efficiency ratio around 63%, and provision expense of $15–$35 million. The outlook assumes no rate cuts in 2026 (versus two cuts previously) but anticipates margin expansion after Q1’s 2.90% NIM (Q1 NII down $2.7M, core NII down $4.8M, margin -8 bps; management notes long‑run margin potential ≈3.15% as securities roll to ~4.50%), and funding/fee mix is rate‑curve dependent. Capital and credit remain strong: tangible common equity 9.3%, CET1 12.6%, ACL $323M (1.23% of loans), NPAs ex‑government $52M (20 bps of loans), and Q1 net charge‑offs $1.9M (3 bps LTM). Management also expects to participate in the Visa Class B exchange (half of ~190k share‑equivalent position ≈95k shares) which could yield roughly a $29M pretax gain at $309/share (not included in guidance).Bok Financial Financial Statement Overview
