Popular (BPOP) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Popular Inc. demonstrates a positive financial outlook highlighted by an 11% increase in tangible common equity, resulting in a year-over-year rise in tangible book value (TBV) per share, and a healthy growth in consolidated total deposits, now totaling $64.9 billion. The company’s profitability metrics have shown significant improvement, with core ROACE, ROATCE, and ROAA rising to 11.0%, 12.5%, and 0.98%, respectively, compared to the previous quarter. Additionally, the updated guidance for 2025 indicates a strong trajectory with projected net interest income growth of 7-9%, consistent loan growth of 3-5%, and a favorable outlook on credit quality, all of which reinforce the corporation's robust financial health.
Bears say
The financial analysis indicates a negative outlook for Popular Inc., primarily due to a projected recession that may result in diminished earnings, profitability, and increased credit losses along with slowed loan growth. Sequential declines in tangible book value (TBV) per share and total deposits further emphasize the corporation's weakening financial position, with TBV decreasing by 1.3% and total deposits declining to $11.7 billion from $11.9 billion in the previous quarter. Additionally, the company's book value per share saw a minor sequential reduction, highlighting potential challenges tied to the fluctuations in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) as well as economic uncertainties in Puerto Rico.
