Evercore ISI analyst John Pancari upgraded Huntington Bancshares to Outperform from In Line with a price target of $15, up from $10.50. The analyst expects the stock’s relative valuation to benefit from a “largely de-risked” expense outlook, generally lower credit risk profile, and solid capital. Additionally, Huntington trades a modest discount to peers despite this outlook, and this disparity should narrow in the coming quarters, paving the way for outperformance in the shares, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
