Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This regional bank is growing market share in key markets in the Southeast, West Coast and Chicago and is expanding its presence with an effective fintech platform strategy. Rising interest rates will help their bottom line going forward. It trades at 10x earnings and under 1.4x book value. It pays a good dividend, that has been growing for 11 consecutive years, and is backed by a payout ratio under 35% of cashflow. It has been aggressively buying back shares and retiring debt. We recommend a stop loss at $27, looking to achieve $49 -- upside over 35%. Yield 3.28% (Analysts’ price target is $49.29)

COMMENT

A regional US bank. The regionals trade at a much higher multiple compared to the big banks, because there's consolidation activity. The last 6 months there has been M&A in regional banks, which was surprising given the regulatory environment. Unfortunately, you won't see the multiple that you saw years ago when the regionals merged; people won't pay that anymore. Regionals are into commercial and retail, not investment banking, but if done well, the ROE is great.

DON'T BUY

Possible that this could become attractive to an acquirer. Would be more comfortable buying this after it had moved up 10%, which would indicate they were off their lows. Dividends are very much at risk in many of the names in this sector.

BUY

Good solid management. Stock is cheap at these levels. Has had slower growth which has affected the stock price, but will grow over the long term. Could be acquired at some point.
