ISBA Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Isabella Bank Corp exhibited a notable increase in net interest income (NII), rising by 7% quarter-over-quarter and surpassing estimates, driven by a 5% increase in core NII and stable loan-to-deposit (L/D) ratios at 81%. The company is positioned for sustainable loan growth, expecting to capture additional market share while maintaining significant deposit growth, as indicated by an 11% increase in public service contributions (PSCe) and a 3% rise in certificates of deposit (CDs). Additionally, Isabella Bank is forecasted to experience further net interest margin (NIM) expansion, with reported NIM improving to 2.98%, supported by upward loan re-pricing and higher core loan yields that enhance profitability metrics relative to peers.
Bears say
Isabella Bank Corp's revenue declined slightly, reflecting a 3% decrease in Assets Under Management (AUM), which stood at $658 million at the end of December. The company's operating expenses increased modestly by 1%, yet were still below forecast due to lower compensation and benefits costs, indicating possible cost control issues amidst declining income. Additionally, the sequential drops in tangible book value and tangible common equity, coupled with issues related to net interest income assumptions and increased charge-offs, underscore the challenges Isabella Bank faces in maintaining financial health, contributing to a negative outlook on its stock.
