East West Bancorp recently held its Q4 earnings call, where it reported record financial performance with significant growth in revenue, fee income, net income, and earnings per share for 2024. The company achieved substantial deposit growth and maintained a stable net interest margin despite challenges in the technology sector that resulted in increased credit loss provisions. Analysts have adjusted their price targets for East West Bancorp, with Piper Sandler lowering its target due to a modest historical discount compared to peers, and DA Davidson reducing its target following an earnings miss attributed to higher provisions for credit losses, predominantly from problem credits in the technology sector. These adjustments reflect the bank’s robust capital return strategy and efforts to manage credit risk amid fluctuating market conditions.
