ISBA Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Isabella Bank Corp demonstrated resilience and stability, as evidenced by non-performing assets (NPAs) remaining relatively low at only 0.13% of loans, despite a slight increase due to a singular loan downgrade expected to incur no loss. The bank reported a significant increase in net interest income (NII), with a projected growth of 3% quarter-over-quarter and 11% year-over-year, supported by robust loan growth across multiple sectors including single-family residential and commercial real estate. Additionally, tangible book value (TBV) rose by 4% to $23.39, reflecting strong profitability and a reported return on assets (ROA) of 0.96%, highlighting the bank's effective management and financial health.
Bears say
Isabella Bank's negative outlook is primarily driven by forecasted flat year-over-year loan growth for the current year, with anticipated growth only picking up to 4% by 2026, indicating sluggish demand amid economic pressures. Additionally, the bank's outlook includes a conservative projection of non-credit operations (NCOs) at 12 basis points, paired with limited loan loss provision (LLP) coverage of 1.7 times, signaling potential risk concerns related to credit quality. Finally, a minor decline in the allowance for loan loss (ACL) to 0.92% of loans further underscores the challenges the bank faces in maintaining robust financial health despite rising operating expenses.
