Texas Capital Bancshares (TCBI – Research Report), the Financial sector company, was revisited by a Wall Street analyst today. Analyst Anthony Elian from J.P. Morgan maintained a Sell rating on the stock and has a $80.00 price target.
Anthony Elian has given his Sell rating due to a combination of factors related to Texas Capital Bancshares’ current financial performance and market positioning. Despite the notable growth in the investment banking segment, which has shown a significant increase in fee income, the expenses associated with this nascent segment remain high. This has limited its overall contribution to the company’s earnings, raising concerns about its impact on profitability.
Moreover, while Texas Capital aims to achieve a profitability target of ROAA greater than 1.10% by the second half of 2025, there is skepticism regarding their ability to reach this goal without significant balance sheet actions. Additionally, the valuation of TCBI shares, despite trading at a discount to peers on a tangible book value basis, does not appear as attractive when considering the lower projected return on tangible equity and the implied cost of equity, which is below the median of their coverage universe. These factors contribute to the decision to maintain a Sell rating on the stock.
