1st Source (SRCE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
1st Source Corp demonstrated robust financial performance as evidenced by a sequential increase in Pre-Provision Net Revenue (PPNR) of 2% to $49.4 million, outpacing initial estimates due to stronger net interest income and enhanced fee income, despite rising expenses. The company's loan balances experienced notable growth of $239 million quarter-over-quarter, driven largely by increases in construction equipment financing, commercial real estate, and aircraft loans, culminating in a year-over-year loan growth rate of 14%. Additionally, core fee income rose by 3% quarter-over-quarter, complemented by solid deposit growth of 6%, indicating a strengthening operational foundation and positive momentum in key financial metrics.
Bears say
1st Source Corp is facing challenges characterized by higher-than-peer allowance for loan losses (ACL) at 2.27%, which raises concerns about asset quality and potential credit costs. Recent financial results show a significant decline in loan growth prospects, compounded by substantial securities losses of $3.9 million and elevated operating expenses, which were 6%-7% above expectations. Additionally, the risks of reduced loan demand and margin pressure are heightened in the current interest rate environment, suggesting a precarious outlook for earnings.
