Fulton Financial (FULT) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Fulton Financial Corp demonstrated improved capital strength with an increase in Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio to 11.3%, indicating substantial capital flexibility. The company experienced a positive trend in earnings, as evidenced by a $0.04 beat in pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) supported by a $0.02 increase in net interest income (NII) and a rise in net interest margin (NIM) by 4 basis points. Additionally, earnings estimates for 2025 have been raised by $0.20 to $2.05 due to lower credit costs and continued improvements in NII, reflecting a positive outlook for the company’s financial performance.
Bears say
Fulton Financial Corp has reported a decline in purchase accounting accretion, decreasing from $13.1 million to $11.4 million, which is below both the previous estimate and the expected range. Additionally, average loans have decreased by 2% quarter-over-quarter, signaling potential weakness in loan demand, even as end-of-period loans increased modestly by 3%. The ongoing pressures from credit costs, reduced loan demand, and margin compression, exacerbated by the broader sell-off in bank stocks and economic challenges, contribute to a negative outlook for Fulton Financial's stock performance.
