DA Davidson Reiterates Buy Rating on Wintrust Financial (WTFC) Following Q3 Earnings

Tue, 20 Oct 2026 09:17:41 -0400

DA Davidson analyst Jeff Rulis reiterated a Buy rating and $180.00 price target on Wintrust Financial (NASDAQ: WTFC).

The analyst commented, "The reasons we highlighted WTFC as a favorite name into the 3Q26 earning season were evident in the bank's release: high single digit loan growth, a stable NIM and better than peer credit quality...all while shares have lagged the KRX YTD into the print. WTFC remains one of the most consistent banks under our coverage with 2026's Y/Y EPS growth again likely headed for double digit territory, following 2025's ~13%+ increase over 2024."
