Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Growth ProspectsThe stock is viewed as offering a compelling risk/reward profile, with expected superior EPS growth and profitability compared to peers.
Mergers And AcquisitionsRisk/reward is seen as positively skewed given capital positioning, superior growth/return potential, potential lift to valuation from a pick-up in bank M&A activity, and a strong management team.
ValuationThe discount valuation looks particularly attractive given the forecast which implies ~18% average annual EPS growth for 2025 and 2026, or nearly twice peer average.
Bears Say
Interest RatesElevated interest rates are likely to remain a concern for stock valuation due to impacts on funding costs and perceived credit risk.
Management TargetsPersistent concerns tied to credit reserves, potential headwinds to management’s loan/deposit growth target, and fading hopes for a mortgage rebound could continue to weigh on investor sentiment.
