What the Analysts think about Hancock Whitney
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Hancock Whitney stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Hancock Whitney stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Second-quarter earnings showed strong underlying momentum: EPS rose 13% year on year to $1.55, while loans grew at a 10% linked-quarter annualised rate and deposits at 8%. Net interest income rose 3% from the prior quarter, giving the bank a solid base for further growth. (Hancock Whitney)
The completed One Florida Bank acquisition gives Hancock Whitney a meaningful entry into the Orlando market, adding roughly $2.1 billion of assets. Management expects the combined bank to deliver low-double-digit loan and deposit growth and 8% to 9% net interest income growth in 2026, before counting significant revenue synergies. (Hancock Whitney, Alphastreet)
Credit trends and capital remain supportive. Criticised commercial loans fell for the sixth consecutive quarter, net charge-offs declined to 16 basis points, the loan-loss reserve was 1.42% of loans, and the estimated CET1 ratio was a robust 13.18%. (Hancock Whitney, Alphastreet)
Margin expansion may be difficult to sustain. Management expects deposit costs to rise by about 10 basis points from the second to the fourth quarter as promotional CDs and money-market offers normalise, leaving second-half net interest margin only flat to slightly higher. (Investing.com)
The One Florida deal could put pressure on near-term efficiency before its benefits arrive. Management expects operating expenses to rise 7.5% to 8.5%, says cost savings will be fully realised only by the start of 2027, and has not included meaningful revenue synergies in its guidance. (Alphastreet)
Loan growth is becoming harder to achieve at attractive returns. Management said there is substantial loan supply relative to demand, making quality deals difficult to win and pricing tight; non-accrual loans also edged up to $114 million, while full-year net charge-offs are still expected to average 15 to 25 basis points. (Alphastreet, Benzinga)
