Oppenheimer Maintains Outperform on U.S. Bancorp, Raises Price Target to $63

US Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43028258/us-bancorp-beats-q4-eps-estimates-return-on-tangible-equity-hits-183-as-ceo-emphasizes-resilience-amid-challenges">mixed results for the fourth quarter</a>.
The company reported its quarterly results amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst takeaways.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">DA Davidson On US Bancorp</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/59072de6290fa70001f19989/peter-winter">Analyst Peter Winter</a> maintained a Buy rating and a price target of $60.
US Bancorp reported its fourth-quarter earnings at $1.01 <a>per share</a>, with core earnings of $1.07 per share surpassing consensus of $1.05 per share, Winter said in a note. The company's net interest income (NII) rose $11 million, or 0.3%, to $4.176 billion, in-line with expectations, he added.
US Bancorp has reported positive operating leverage (POL) of more than 0.5% only once since 2016, with the figure being negative in six of those years, the analyst stated. "However, USB has turned the corner," generating positive POL in the third and fourth quarters of 2024 and has guided to a 200+ basis points of POL for the first quarter and 2025, "led by 3% to 5% total revenue growth," he further wrote.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods On US Bancorp</h1>
Analyst David Konrad reiterated a Market Perform rating and price target of $58.
US Bancorp reported "a modest operating beat" for the fourth quarter, with NII of $4.2 billion in-line with expectations, Konrad said. Net interest margins came in at 2.71%, down sequentially by three basis points (bps) and below "our estimate of 2.73%," he added.
"NII growth for 2025 is embedded in the firm&#8217;s +3-5% net revenue guide, and assumes two rate cuts, and is expected to benefit from better asset mix, stabilization in NIBD mix shift, and fixed asset repricing," the analyst wrote. Although the company's 2025 guidance came in below Street expectations, the market reaction seems to be overdone, he further stated.
USB Price Action: Shares of US Bancorp had risen by 0.19% to $48.13 at the time of publication on Friday.

US Bancorp Reports Q4 Earnings Beat, 'Has Turned The Corner,' Analysts Say

Wall Street paused for a breather on Thursday, following Wednesday's big rally sparked by a softer-than-predicted December inflation report that fueled speculation on the Federal Reserve delivering interest rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43003047/stocks-rise-on-core-inflation-slowdown-banks-rally-after-strong-q4-earnings-treasury-yields-plummet">cuts during the year. </a>
By midday, stocks were little changed as attention shifted to the next major event: Donald Trump's inauguration as 47th U.S. president on Monday.
On the data front, December retail sales rose 0.4% from the previous month, a slower pace than November's 0.8% increase and below expectations of 0.6%. Jobless claims climbed by 16,000 to 217,000, slightly higher than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43027744/retail-sales-slow-jobless-claims-rise-is-us-consumer-loosing-steam">the projected 210,000. </a>

The weaker data sent Treasury yields lower, with the 10-year yield slipping four basis points to 4.61%, extending the previous day's 14-basis-point decline.
Falling yields helped gold climb 0.9% to $2,970 per ounce, reaching a two-month high as investors moved toward safe-haven assets. 
Semiconductor stocks stood out the best-performing industry, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) gaining 1.8%. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) jumped more than 5% after delivering strong quarterly earnings, lifting the broader chip industry. Applied Materials Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) and ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) advanced 7% and 6%, respectively.
Oil prices pulled back 2.6%, giving up part of Wednesday's 4% gain. Traders speculated that Trump's policies could ease sanctions on Russian energy exports as part of a broader effort to negotiate peace in Ukraine. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged down 1% to $99,000, following a slight pullback across cryptocurrency markets.

Meanwhile, regional banks, tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>), dipped 0.7% following Wednesday's rally.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BK#NYSE">BK</a>), which fueled the biggest one-day surge in financial stocks since November.
Market strategist Ed Yardeni said the earnings reflected a "pickup in investment banking and markets activity as business confidence improved." He added that consumer loan growth remained slightly stronger than commercial loan growth.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Morgan Stanley Rides Trading Boom To Blowout Quarter</h3>
Morgan Stanley posted earnings per share of $2.22, crushing the $1.70 forecast. Revenue climbed to $16.22 billion, exceeding expectations by nearly 8%, according to <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent011625&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro</a> data.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bank of America Tops Estimates, But 2025 Outlook In Focus</h3>
Bank of America also delivered a strong quarter, reporting EPS of 82 cents, above the 77 cents forecast. Revenue net of interest expenses came in at $25.35 billion, slightly exceeding expectations.
Key business lines performed well. Net interest income reached $14.36 billion, ahead of the $14.12 billion estimate. Investment banking revenue also beat, coming in at $1.65 billion versus the $1.47 billion forecast.

U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) shares are trading <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">lower in the premarket session on Thursday.</a>
The company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://s203.q4cdn.com/711684571/files/doc_financials/2024/q4/4Q24-Earnings-Release-4Q24.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth quarter </a>adjusted earnings per share of $1.07, beating the street view of $1.05. Quarterly sales of $6.98 billion marginally missed the analyst consensus estimate of $6.996 billion.
The company registered a return on tangible common equity of 18.3%, a return on average assets of 1.03%, and an efficiency ratio of 59.9%, adjusted for notable items.
Positive operating leverage in the quarter under review was 190 basis points, as adjusted for notable items.
&#8220;As we move into 2025, we are well positioned to deliver industry-leading returns on tangible common equity and remain confident in our strategy for future growth and our ability to deliver meaningful positive operating leverage,&#8221; said Andy Cecere, Chairman and CEO of U.S. Bancorp.
Net interest income in the quarter under review rose 0.9% to $4.146 billion. Noninterest income rose 8.1% to $2.833 billion.

The increase in net income attributable to U.S. Bancorp year-over-year was primarily due to higher total net revenue and lower noninterest expense driven by higher notable items in the prior year quarter, partially offset by an increase in the provision for credit losses.
The net interest margin decreased to 2.71% in the fourth quarter of 2024 from 2.78% in the fourth quarter of 2023.
The company&#8217;s provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $560 million, up from $557 million in the third quarter of 2024 and $512 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
The increase from the third quarter was $3 million (0.5%), and from the fourth quarter of 2023, it was $48 million (9.4%). The higher provision year-over-year was mainly due to increased losses on credit card and commercial real estate loans.
Outlook: For the first quarter, the company sees relatively stable net interest income compared with the fourth quarter. The company also projects positive operating leverage of +200 bps.
The company sees FY25 revenues to increase 3% to 5% year over year.
The company said it continues to monitor economic uncertainties such as interest rates, inflation, and other factors that could impact borrowers.
Price Action: USB shares are trading lower by 2.46% to $49.65 premarket at last check Thursday.

Shares of banking and financial services stocks are trading higher following strong bank earnings.

U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) will release its fourth-quarter financial results before the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/USB/earnings">opening bell on Thursday, Jan. 16</a>.
Analysts expect the Minneapolis, Minnesota-based company to report quarterly earnings at $1.05 per share, up from 49 cents per share in the year-ago period. U.S. Bancorp projects quarterly revenue of $6.99 billion, compared to $6.73 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Oct. 16, the company reported third-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.03, beating the analyst consensus estimate of 99 cents.
With the recent buzz around U.S. Bancorp, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends. As of now, U.S. Bancorp offers an annual dividend yield of 4.08%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 50 cents per share ($2.00 a year).
To figure out how to earn $500 monthly from U.S. Bancorp, we start with the yearly target of $6,000 ($500 x 12 months).
Next, we take this amount and divide it by U.S. Bancorp's $2.00 dividend: $6,000 / $2.00 = 3,000 shares.
So, an investor would need to own approximately $147,180 worth of U.S. Bancorp, or 3,000 shares to generate a monthly dividend income of $500.
Assuming a more conservative goal of $100 monthly ($1,200 annually), we do the same calculation: $1,200 / $2.00 = 600 shares, or $29,436 to generate a monthly dividend income of $100.
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
The dividend yield is calculated by dividing the annual dividend payment by the current stock price. As the stock price changes, the dividend yield will also change.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and its current price is $50, its dividend yield would be 4%. However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield would decrease to 3.33% ($2/$60).
Conversely, if the stock price decreases to $40, the dividend yield would increase to 5% ($2/$40).
Further, the dividend payment itself can also change over time, which can also impact the dividend yield. If a company increases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will increase even if the stock price remains the same. Similarly, if a company decreases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will decrease.
USB Price Action: Shares of U.S. Bancorp gained by 1.4% to close at $49.06 on Tuesday.

U.S. Bancorp Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Analysts at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/truist-securities">Truist Securities</a> initiated coverage on 24 large-cap, regional, and trust banks, as well as credit card companies. They anticipate strong earnings growth over the next two years, projecting an annual increase of 12-15% fueled by factors like improving loan growth, a steeper yield curve, and ample capital for expansion.
What Happened: Forecasting a favorable environment for banks in 2025 and 2026, the analysts at Truist foresee a less stringent regulatory environment, with more clarity and flexibility for banks regarding mergers and acquisitions, and the deployment of excess capital.
The note highlighted that the banking stocks were de-rated during the first two years of Trump 1.0 because the yield curve was flattened and late-cycle macro concerns surfaced, even as the administration enacted bank-friendly tax reform and regulatory tailoring. However, according to the brokerage, a little Fed easing and a steeper curve are necessary for the stocks to be re-rated and two rate cuts are expected in 2025, as hinted by Fed during their December meeting. 
According to Truist, while bank valuations have increased, they remain relatively attractive compared to historical levels. They currently trade at a price-to-book value (P/TBV) below their post-financial crisis average, and at a significant discount to the broader market. The note adds that given the current market valuations, bank stocks appear undervalued relative to the S&amp;P 500.
However, despite Truist beliefs that the sector offers attractive opportunities, careful stock selection is crucial according to them. &#8220;While we're not at &#8216;close your eyes and buy ‘em levels,&#8217; we still see attractive opportunities across the sector and view stock selection as increasingly important,&#8221; the note said.

Why It Matters: Truist&#8217;s coverage on 24 financial stocks is spread across three subgroups namely, large-cap, regional, and trust banks, which is initiated with a positive outlook.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Large-Cap Banks</h3>
The research note examines long-term investment potential of large U.S. banks as these institutions possess significant advantages, including, &#8220;embedded offense&#8221; with the presence of strong existing businesses and customer relationships.
It also anticipates cyclical tailwinds and capital leverage for such banks given a favorable economic environment and the ability to effectively utilize capital for growth.
These factors position large U.S. banks to achieve organic growth by the expansion of core businesses, double-digit earnings growth and an attractive returns on equity.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trust Banks And Capital Markets</h3>
Truist anticipates gradual interest rate decreases, the eventual end of quantitative tightening, and a healthy economy and capital markets providing a competitive landscape to trust banks.
According to the analysts, investors should prioritize stocks with the potential for sustained operating leverage. Which is the ability to increase profitability significantly with relatively small increases in revenue. And stocks with strong capital returns, with high levels of income through dividends and share buybacks.
