1st Source (SRCE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
1st Source Corp demonstrated a robust financial performance, with pretax pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) increasing by 2% quarter-over-quarter to $49.4 million, surpassing estimates due to stronger net interest income (NII) driven by a 14 basis point expansion in net interest margin (NIM) and solid fee income growth. The bank's end-of-period loan balances grew significantly by $239 million quarter-over-quarter, with notable increases in construction equipment, commercial real estate, and aircraft financing, contributing to an impressive 14% loan growth on a last-quarter-annualized basis. Additionally, core fee income rose by 3% quarter-over-quarter, reflecting positive trends in both business and consumer banking segments and strong deposit growth of 6% over the same period.
Bears say
1st Source Corporation's financial outlook appears negative due to a decrease in the Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL), which, while above peer levels, reflects a relative decline that could indicate credit quality concerns. The company reported $3.9 million in securities losses and an unexpected $860k write-down, alongside operating expenses that exceeded expectations by 6%-7%, highlighting potential inefficiencies in cost management. Additionally, the anticipated reduction in loan growth, contingent on maintaining deposit levels in a challenging interest rate environment, raises further concerns about the bank's ability to sustain profitability and manage risk effectively.
