Olney wrote:
“We had been bracing for incrementally worse trends at TBK given the recent results in the transportation industry that the Bank has exposure to. Management is signaling it is shifting its strategic focus from growth to profitability and we believe this could ultimately improve the long-term NIM, ROA and ROTCE of the franchise. We are increasing our 2020 EPS forecast (from $2.52 to $2.67) but remain below Street consensus as we believe the consensus EPS ramp implies a more favorable macro-environment in the transportation industry that has yet to emerge. Our revised price target of $32 (was $30) is based on 12x our 2020 EPS forecast. Our rating is Equal-Weight.”
