BankUnited: Solid Deposits But Light Reserves Leave Shares Fairly Valued (Rating Downgrade)
BankUnited shares gained 36% over the past year, driven by improved deposit performance and hopes for an easier regulatory environment. Despite strong financials and a 16% return since September, I am less bullish due to valuation concerns and limited buyback prospects. The deposit mix has improved with NIB balances growing over the past year, which has improved NIM and return on equity.
