U.S. Bancorp (USB) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
U.S. Bancorp demonstrated robust financial performance with a 5.3% increase in fee income, reaching $3.085 billion, which reflects effective strategies in optimizing its balance sheet and strong momentum in net interest margin, which expanded 9 basis points to 2.75%. Average deposits rose by 1.8% quarter-over-quarter to $511.78 billion, complemented by steady growth in interest-bearing deposits, while the CET1 ratio increased by 20 basis points to 10.9%, indicating the bank's strengthened capitalization. Additionally, the Union Bank acquisition continues to yield positive results, enhancing U.S. Bancorp's capabilities in Impact Finance and expected to generate further growth in the coming years.
Bears say
U.S. Bancorp is currently experiencing significant underperformance, as evidenced by its stock trading near historical lows in terms of both price-to-earnings (P/E) and price-to-tangible book value (P/TBV) ratios, with these metrics reaching a ten-year low in 2024. The bank faces increasing pressure from anticipated economic downturns, which are expected to negatively impact earnings per share (EPS) estimates for 2025 and 2026 due to heightened credit losses and weakened loan growth. Additionally, a decline in net interest margin (NIM) estimates, coupled with a protracted approval process for the MUFG Union deal and related rate hikes, has contributed to investor dissatisfaction and an overall challenging growth outlook for U.S. Bancorp.
