Why Is Texas Capital Bank Not Exciting?

We're sitting this one out for now. Here are three reasons we avoid TCBI and a stock we'd rather own.

1. Net Interest Income Points to Soft Demand

Our experience and research show the market cares primarily about a bank’s net interest income growth as one-time fees are considered a lower-quality and non-recurring revenue source.

Texas Capital Bank’s net interest income has grown at a 5.1% annualized rate over the last five years, much worse than the broader banking industry and in line with its total revenue. Its growth was driven by an increase in its net interest margin, which represents how much a bank earns in relation to its outstanding loans, as its loan book shrank throughout that period.

2. Projected Net Interest Income Growth Is Slim

Forecasted net interest income by Wall Street analysts signals a company’s potential. Predictions may not always be accurate, but accelerating growth typically boosts valuation multiples and stock prices while slowing growth does the opposite.

Over the next 12 months, sell-side analysts expect Texas Capital Bank’s net interest income to rise by 3%, a deceleration versus its 8.2% annualized growth for the past two years. This projection is below its 8.2% annualized growth rate for the past two years.

3. Previous Growth Initiatives Haven’t Impressed

Return on equity (ROE) measures how effectively banks generate profit from each dollar of shareholder equity - a critical funding source. High-ROE institutions typically compound shareholder wealth faster over time through retained earnings, share repurchases, and dividend payments.

Over the last five years, Texas Capital Bank has averaged an ROE of 7.3%, uninspiring for a company operating in a sector where the average shakes out around 7.5%.

Final Judgment

Texas Capital Bank isn’t a terrible business, but it doesn’t pass our bar. That said, the stock currently trades at 1.2× forward P/B (or $99.82 per share). While this valuation is reasonable, we don’t really see a big opportunity at the moment. We're pretty confident there are more exciting stocks to buy at the moment. We’d suggest looking at the most dominant software business in the world.
