MSBI Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Midland States Bancorp has demonstrated positive trends with a 2% increase in community banking originations in the first quarter of 2025, indicating robust demand for its financial products and services. The company's efforts to improve credit quality are anticipated to enhance franchise value as they reduce reliance on wholesale funding, while a 23 basis point expansion in net interest margin (NIM) to 3.79% reflects effective asset-liability management. Additionally, the proactive technology investments and momentum in treasury management, supported by an increase in the quarterly dividend, highlight Midland States Bancorp's commitment to driving shareholder value and operational efficiency.
Bears say
The analysis indicates a negative outlook on Midland States Bancorp due to a projected increase in net charge-offs (NCOs) that are expected to reach 50-80 basis points for 2Q/2H25, with a slow decline anticipated in the following year. Additionally, there has been a 3% quarter-over-quarter decrease in loans held for investment, driven by a strategic reduction in equipment financing and higher payoffs in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. Furthermore, wealth management revenue has declined by 4% quarter-over-quarter, alongside a significant 6% drop in total deposits, particularly highlighted by a staggering 59% decrease in brokered deposits, signaling potential liquidity concerns for the institution.
