Piper Sandler analyst Nathan Race raised the firm's price target on Wintrust Financial to $156 from $151 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm believes Wednesday's underperformance presents an attractive entry point as Wintrust is likely to generate both superior net interest income growth and operating leverage this year. The selloff is somewhat understandable given confusion around management conference call commentary for a higher 2025 operating expense level vs. prior consensus expectations. In Piper's view, Wintrust is likely to more than offset a moderately higher operating expense trajectory via net interest income upside given that organic balance sheet growth is likely to trend above mid to high single digit guidance with Wintrust's unique scale to pull further market share in Chicago and across its national niche verticals.
