OSBC Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Old Second Bancorp is poised for stronger loan growth anticipated to begin in the second half of 2025, with projections of a 4%-6% increase attributed to the newly acquired powersport lending niche and expected commercial market share gains in the Chicago metropolitan statistical area (MSA). Additionally, the bank stands to benefit from potential revenue growth in treasury management and card services as it expands its market presence and product offerings within the Chicagoland region. The acquisition of EBG, which includes national powersport lending divisions, further enhances Old Second Bancorp's portfolio, providing a strategic advantage in this emerging market segment.
Bears say
Old Second Bancorp Inc. is facing a challenging financial environment characterized by potential asset quality deterioration and subdued growth in loan and deposit volumes. Despite a 27% decline in non-performing assets (NPAs) in the first quarter of 2025, the underlying risks associated with elevated operating expenses and expectations of muted core fee income growth remain concerning. Additionally, these operational risks, compounded by macroeconomic factors, suggest that the outlook for the bank's financial stability and overall performance may be unfavorable in the near term.
