Merchants Bancorp (MBIN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Merchants Bancorp reported a solid financial performance with a tangible book value (TBV) growth of 3% quarter-over-quarter, alongside an increase in tangible common equity (TCE) of 12 basis points, supported by strong profitability metrics evidenced by a reported return on assets (ROA) of 0.94% and a return on tangible common equity (ROTCE) of 10.6% for the third quarter. The impressive growth in core deposit accounts, including an 18% increase in certificates of deposit and brokered deposits, demonstrates broad-based growth across various deposit categories, which positions the company favorably amidst fluctuating interest rates. Additionally, the improvement in all regulatory capital ratios, with notable increases across common equity tier 1 (CET1), tier-1 capital, and total risk-based capital, indicates a strong capital foundation that supports ongoing operational and growth initiatives.
Bears say
Merchants Bancorp is experiencing a decline in key financial metrics, with net interest income (NII) dropping to $128.1 million, representing a 1% decrease quarter-over-quarter and falling 2% below consensus expectations. Additionally, average loans have decreased by 5% quarter-over-quarter, indicating a failure to meet anticipated growth, which contributed to slight net interest margin compression to 2.82%. Concerns over the potential for increased loan defaults, driven by economic conditions and borrower creditworthiness, further exacerbate the negative outlook for the bank's financial stability.
