Glacier Bancorp (GBCI) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Glacier Bancorp Inc is positioned for significant growth, with markets expected to expand at twice the national average rate over the next five years, which is likely to support above-peer growth and profitability. The bank is anticipating substantial increases in its net interest margin (NIM), projected to approach 4.00% by the end of 2026, driven by back-book repricings and improving funding conditions. Additionally, Glacier Bancorp is forecasted to achieve impressive earnings per share (EPS) growth of 76% from 2024 to 2026, positioning it favorably within the SMID-cap banking segment and establishing a positive outlook for long-term financial performance.
Bears say
Glacier Bancorp's outlook is adversely affected by a projected decline in earnings, with an estimated EPS of $2.86 for 2026, reflecting a 9% decrease from earlier projections. The bank’s net interest margin (NIM) has significantly dropped to 2.56% in 4Q23, down from pre-pandemic levels above 4%, highlighting challenges in profitability amid changing cash flow dynamics. Additionally, despite a history of outperforming peers, Glacier Bancorp's shares have trailed the KRX index by approximately 860 basis points year-to-date, suggesting a troubling trend of underperformance following a strong showing in 2024.
