In other recent news, Customers Bancorp has seen a series of adjustments from financial analysts following its third-quarter earnings report. Maxim Group raised its 2025 EPS estimate for the company to $6.34 from $6.09, setting a new 12-month stock price target at $80. This adjustment comes in light of the company’s projection of a stronger performance in the second half of 2025, following the integration of ten new commercial banking teams and a regulatory agreement that is likely to increase expenses in the first quarter.

Simultaneously, Stephens increased its stock price target for Customers Bancorp to $55, citing the company’s impressive third-quarter earnings that surpassed expectations. However, Piper Sandler and DA Davidson both lowered their targets, citing complexities including a shortfall in net interest income. Despite this, DA Davidson maintains a Buy rating on the stock, with an adjusted 2025 earnings per share estimate of $5.82.

These recent developments reflect the ongoing strategic shift of Customers Bancorp towards becoming a specialized commercial bank. The bank’s third-quarter report highlighted a core earnings per share of $1.34 and a 16% annualized loan growth. Despite an expected increase in compliance and technology expenses impacting non-interest expenses in the fourth quarter, the bank’s venture banking segment continues to expand, maintaining robust credit quality.
