Challenges and Future Outlook
The Bancorp Inc faces challenges related to its real estate bridge lending (REBL) portfolio, with loans classified as special mention or substandard increasing to $177.1 million from $165.2 million in the previous quarter. The company is closely monitoring these loans and evaluating potential increases in the allowance for credit losses.
Additionally, the company has initiated a measured entry into consumer fintech lending, which is expected to significantly impact both the balance sheet and income in the future. This strategic move aims to leverage existing and new fintech relationships to drive growth.
Growth trends and the reduction of shares through buybacks should support continued strong EPS growth in 2024 and beyond," added Kozlowski.
