U.S. Large-Cap Banks 2020 Outlook
Past, Present & Yet to Come: As Things Change, They Stay the Same
While our price targets imply less upside heading into 2020 (up ~20%) than 2019
SECTOR UPDATE
U.S. Large-Cap Banks POSITIVE Unchanged
Equity Research
6 January 2020
(up ~40%), we believe the U.S. Large-Cap banks continue to have the ability to rise and outperform the market. Like in 2019, we expect our coverage to benefit from continued earnings/book value growth, active capital management, ‘regulatory finalization’, and an increasing benefit from leveraging technology/economies of scale at a still discounted valuation (63% forward P/E relative to the S&P 500 approximates lowest level since 2002, over a 9% all-in yield). Furthermore, should the economic backdrop be more challenging than our base case, we believe this group will prove to be more defensive than investors appreciate. In the near term, we caution the BKX outperformed the S&P 500 by 479bps in 4Q19. Since 1997, the BKX has outperformed by more than 250bps in 4Q six other times. In five of those six instances, the BKX underperformed the following January. With net interest margin comps challenging in 1H20, we expect EPS growth for 2020 to remain in the mid-single digit area, driven by share repurchase. Still, EPS growth should accelerate as the year progresses and into 2021. Relative to 2019, we expect 2020 results to reflect: relatively stable net interest income owing to continued loan growth (broad-based but modest) offset by a lower net interest margin (though stabilizing early in the year); varied fee income trends (higher service charge/credit card fees, mixed capital markets trends, lower mortgage fees); controlled costs (though positive operating leverage tough early in the year); a higher loan loss provision (off a low base, CECL implementation playing a varying role) with a modest upward bias to NPA and NCO ratio (from loan losses at half their historical average); a higher tax rate (2019 was lower than expected); a reduced share count (though payout ratios could decline in 2H20); and a lower core preferred dividend (several redemptions in 2H19).
Following 2019’s P/E multiple moves (median bank +3.3pts) and our updated price targets, we are making some rating changes. We are upgrading BAC from EW to OW (significant improvement in its consumer banking franchise) and downgrading the shares of WFC from OW to EW (meaningful multiple expansion in 2019 better captures near-term efficiency ratio improvement possibilities). Among the Regionals, we are upgrading CFG and FITB from EW to OW (two of the cheaper regional banks despite both improving their offensive and defensive positioning) and downgrading FRC from OW to EW (7.5 points of multiple expansion in 2019 better reflects franchise value).
For 2020, we expect continued (albeit possibly slower) GDP growth, relatively stable interest rates, and record low unemployment – not a bad backdrop for this group. Still, several uncertainties could factor into corporate/consumer confidence, economic growth, and the ultimate path of interest rates, including the U.S.-China trade conflict, weakness in manufacturing, and the upcoming Presidential election, to name a few. Furthermore, changes to loan loss reserve accounting could complicate matters.

This marks the 16th straight year we are publishing our Charles Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” inspired report at the

In March we will also celebrate the 16th birthday of our daily Bank Brief e-mail.
This product is intended to provide you with everything you need to know for the trading day ahead. Let us know if you would like to receive it each morning.

YET TO COME – A LOOK AT THE YEAR AHEAD (2020 OUTLOOK) Bank Stock Outlook: As things change, they stay the same
Executive Summary Before we delve into our expectations for 2020, we wanted to take a brief look back at our expectations for 2019 (Past, Present & Yet to Come: Less Good Doesn’t Mean Bad, Buy Banks, 1/2/19), given our thesis for 2020 has not changed dramatically. At the very beginning of 2019, we stated we believed the U.S. Large-Cap bank stocks had the ability to rise and outperform the S&P 500 in 2019, with group benefiting from continued earnings/book value growth, active capital management, ‘regulatory finalization’, and an increasing benefit from leveraging technology/economies of scale. We also stated should the economic backdrop be more challenging than our base case (which at the time included two 25bp Fed hikes for 2019 versus actual results of 75bps o...
