“Our “Strong Buy” rating assumes continued double-digit earnings per share growth along with a higher return- on-tangible common equity should allow HBAN to return to trading above 225% of its price-to-tangible book value. This valuation, coupled with tangible book value growth and a 4.1% dividend yield could produce a total shareholder return of 35% by year-end 2019E.”
