Analysts expect earnings per share (EPS) to be $1.09, with projected revenue of approximately $5.32 billion. These figures are crucial as they can influence TFC's stock price.
TFC is anticipated to report a 19.8% increase in EPS compared to the same period last year, as highlighted by Zacks. This growth is driven by a 4.1% year-over-year revenue increase, with analysts forecasting revenues of $5.27 billion. The consensus EPS estimate has been revised upward by 0.7% over the past 30 days, indicating positive sentiment among analysts.
Despite challenges from Federal Reserve rate cuts, TFC's net interest income (NII) is expected to rise by 3.2%. This increase is attributed to strong loan demand and reduced deposit costs. Non-interest income is also projected to grow by 6.5%, supported by stronger fee income across various segments. These factors contribute to the anticipated 1-2% sequential growth in adjusted fourth-quarter revenues.
TFC's loan portfolio shows promising trends, with commercial and industrial loans making up nearly half of total loans and leases. Consumer loan demand, accounting for about 40% of total loans, remains solid.
