SBCF Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Seacoast Banking Corp of Florida has demonstrated strong trends in net interest margin (NIM), with core NIM expanding by 5 basis points quarter-over-quarter to reach 3.29%, exceeding prior expectations. Additionally, the company’s reported NIM saw an increase of 10 basis points, driven in part by higher levels of fair value accretion. This positive performance in margin metrics has led to an upward revision in the company's profitability forecast, projecting a return on assets (ROA) of approximately 1.30% by 2026, an increase from the previously estimated 1.10%.
Bears say
Seacoast Banking has experienced a 2% decline in deposits quarter-over-quarter, indicating potential challenges in customer retention and cash flow, particularly in a seasonally weaker period. Furthermore, the company's loan-to-deposit (L/D) ratio has shifted to 85%, suggesting a tighter liquidity situation that could impact lending capabilities and overall growth. Additionally, various risk factors, including integration challenges from recent acquisitions and the possibility of loan growth falling short of expectations, may further exacerbate pressure on the bank's net interest margin (NIM) and net interest income (NII).
