OP Bancorp (OPBK) Stock Forecast & Price Target
OP Bancorp (OPBK) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
OP Bancorp has demonstrated strong financial performance, highlighted by a significant net interest margin (NIM) expansion of 22 basis points to 3.23%, driven by improved loan yields and reduced deposit competition. The company reported an impressive 15.4% increase in end-of-period (EOP) loans quarter-over-quarter, which indicates robust demand for its banking services among small- and medium-sized businesses and underserved communities. Additionally, non-interest-bearing deposits (NIBDs) rose by 14% LQA for the second consecutive quarter, reflecting the bank's growing customer base and operational strength.
Bears say
OP Bancorp's stock outlook is negatively impacted by a decline in average earning asset yields, which fell 4 basis points to 6.15%, as a result of reduced loan yields and nonaccrual interest reversals. Additionally, the bank faces potential risks, including a deterioration in asset quality, competitive pressures affecting loan and deposit pricing, and weakening loan demand, all of which could hinder profitable growth. Lastly, a decrease in SBA gain-on-sale income has led to reduced fee expectations, exacerbating risks associated with higher credit costs and margin pressure in a rising interest rate environment.
