OSBC Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Old Second Bancorp is poised for a stronger financial performance due to the anticipated loan growth projected to restart in the second half of 2025, expected to range between 4% and 6% on a loan quarter average. The acquisition of a national powersport lending niche through EBG, which includes two key divisions, positions the company to capture additional market share and expand its offerings within the Chicagoland area. Furthermore, potential upside in revenue is expected from enhanced growth in treasury management and card services, contributing positively to the bank’s overall revenue diversification and profitability.
Bears say
Old Second Bancorp experienced a notable decline in non-performing assets (NPAs) of 27% quarter-over-quarter in 1Q25, falling to $37.7 million, attributed mainly to the resolution and sale of two major other real estate owned (OREO) properties. Despite this improvement in asset quality, the company continues to face risks related to potential asset quality deterioration, insufficient growth in loans, deposits, and core fee income, and persistent elevated operating expenses tied to OREO costs. Furthermore, it is anticipated that overall operating expenses will decrease by 8% in 2Q25, highlighting ongoing financial pressures that contribute to a negative outlook on the stock.
