South State (SSB) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
SouthState Bank Corp has demonstrated strong financial performance, evidenced by a quarterly loan production increase to $3.4 billion from $3.3 billion, alongside a remarkable 67% year-to-date growth in loan production from Texas and Colorado. The bank's core earnings per share estimates for 2025 and 2026 have been revised upward due to a successful third-quarter performance, driven by stronger fee income and lower credit costs, indicating a solid trajectory for profitability. Additionally, anticipated loan growth in the fourth quarter and strategic expansions within its footprint further reinforce a positive outlook for the bank's financial stability and growth potential.
Bears say
The analysis indicates a negative outlook for SouthState Bank's stock primarily due to a slowdown in year-over-year earnings per share growth, attributed to the early recognition of deal-related income. Additionally, the core net interest margin has declined, missing forecasts, which raises concerns about the bank's ability to maintain earnings power, especially if interest rates fall more than anticipated. Regulatory risks and integration challenges further compound these issues, potentially leading to volatility in earnings and stock performance.
