Vining Sparks Reaffirms Their Buy Rating on Northern Trust (NTRS)


In a report released today, Marty Mosby from Vining Sparks maintained a Buy rating on Northern Trust (NTRS), with a price target of $120. The company’s shares opened today at $89.93.

Mosby commented:

“We believe, as NTRS’ fundamental improvement continues to be paired with an acceleration in capital deployment; it should be able to improve its profitability by over another full percentage point in 2019E. As this improvement is realized, NTRS could create more than a 30% total shareholder return for investors over the next 12 months from a revaluation in its price-to-tangible book value toward 275% to reflect profitability enhancements, a 3% growth in 2.4% dividend yield.”
