Earnings Outlook For Bank of Marin

DA Davidson analyst upgraded Bank of Marin Bancorp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMRC#NASDAQ">BMRC</a>) to Buy from Neutral and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bmrc/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">raised the price target to $24 from $21</a>.
The analyst writes that the Fed&#8217;s potential shift to lower rates has enhanced their earnings outlook for BMRC and led to the belief that the bank&#8217;s credit risks have somewhat diminished.
Consequently, the analyst increased the 2025 EPS estimate by 10%, primarily due to a more optimistic forecast for NIM/NII.
Furthermore, the anticipated relief from interest rates is expected to alleviate some pressure on office CRE and lessen overall investor concerns regarding the broader credit quality landscape, adds the analyst.
The analyst says that the bank sold low-yielding securities to reduce borrowings and invest in higher-yielding assets in the second quarter, expected to raise annualized NIM by about 30 basis points starting in 3Q24 and generate $0.46 in EPS accretion over the next four quarters, representing a three-year payback.
Additionally, a 200 basis point rate reduction could boost NII by 1.8% in the first year, leading the analyst to project NIM will surpass 3.00% by the end of 2025.
The analyst says that while BMRC&#8217;s credit issues aren&#8217;t fully resolved, the recent 50 basis point Fed rate cut offers relief for maturing loans and increases the chances of a soft landing, easing investor concerns over credit quality.
The analyst estimates EPS of $(0.70) in 2024 and $1.35 (up from $1.23) in 2025.
Price Action: BMRC shares are up 4.53% at $21.02 at the last check Thursday.

What&#39;s Next for Avidbank Holdings?
While Avidbank Holdings has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors&#39; minds is: what&#39;s next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company&#39;s earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.69 on $21.05 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $2.73 on $83.31 million in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well.

Earnings Misses

AVBH

Avidbank Holdings Inc. Misses Q2 Earnings and Revenue Estimates

JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jpm#NYSE">JPM</a>) remains well-positioned for growth on the back of higher rates, strategic acquisitions and restructuring initiatives, and a resurgence in global deal-making activities. However, challenges in improving fee income because of high mortgage rates and volatile capital market revenues are woes.
JPMorgan&#39;s net interest income (NII) and net yield on interest-earning assets are likely to experience decent growth as the Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates high in the near term. However, rising funding and deposit costs will continue to exert pressure on both to some degree. Though NII dipped in 2020 and 2021 amid the low interest rate environment, the metric reflected a five-year (2018-2023) compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. This rise was partially driven by the First Republic Bank&#39;s acquisition in 2023. Similarly, net yield on interest-earning assets expanded to 2.70% in 2023 from 2% in 2022. The uptrend for both metrics continued during the first quarter of 2024 on a year-over-year basis. The company projects NII in 2024 to rise roughly 2.5% to approximately $92 billion.
Despite the rapid growth of mobile and online banking options, JPM remains focused on its footprint expansion in new regions. In February 2024, the company announced plans to open more than 500 new branches by 2027 to strengthen its position as the bank with the largest branch network and a presence in all 48 states of the United States. The company commenced its digital retail bank Chase in the U.K. in 2021 and intends to expand the accessibility of its digital bank across the European Union. JPMorgan is also focused on strengthening the Commercial &amp; Investment Bank&nbsp;and Asset &amp; Wealth Management businesses in China.
While global deal-making activities nearly came to a grinding halt at the start of 2022, JPMorgan remained a top-ranked entity in terms of global investment banking (IB) fees. While the company&#39;s total IB fees (in the CIB segment) slumped 59% in 2022 and 5% in 2023, the company has been observing encouraging signs within the business. During the first quarter of 2024, IB fees surged 21% on a year-over-year basis, with the company holding a market share of 9.1%. The company is expected to see growth in IB fees going forward, given a healthy IB pipeline and active merger &amp; acquisition (M&amp;A) market. It also intends to leverage its top position to amplify the magnitude of the gain due to the changed scenario.
JPMorgan has been expanding via both domestic and global acquisitions. Last year, the company increased its stake in Brazil&#39;s C6 Bank to 46% from 40%, established a strategic alliance with Cleareye.ai, a financial technology firm focused on trade finance and acquired Aumni and First Republic Bank (an FDIC-assisted deal). These deals, along with several others in the past, are likely to keep aiding the bank&#39;s plan to diversify revenues and expand fee income product suite and consumer bank digitally.
JPM currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). In the past three months, shares of the company have gained 20% compared with the industry&#39;s growth of 15.4%.

Nonetheless, JPMorgan&#39;s excessive reliance on the performance of the capital markets to generate fee income is a matter of concern. Though increased volatility and a surge in client activity in 2022 led to improved trading performance, the same normalized on a gradual basis thereafter. The market&#39;s revenues dipped 4% on a year-over-year basis in 2023, with the trend continuing during the first quarter of 2024. The volatile nature of the business is likely to make growth challenging moving forward.
JPM&#39;s mortgage fees and related income performance turned dismal amid the continued rise in mortgage rates since 2022. This led to subdued demand for mortgage loans and refinancing. The metric witnessed a negative CAGR of 27.5% over the three years ended 2023. While the trend reversed during the first quarter of 2024, origination volumes and refinancing activities are unlikely to experience solid growth as mortgage rates are likely to stay elevated in the near term.
