First Financial Bankshares: Excellent Q4 Results, But The Valuation Remains A Problem
First Financial Bankshares has been a relatively soft performer since my opening piece last year, trailing the wider small bank space as well as other Texan banks. Fourth quarter results were strong, with the bank reporting a 1.8% return on assets and an 18.8% return on tangible equity. Having lagged when interest rates were rising, First Financial now enjoys above-average NIM prospects going forward, with that pointing to solid growth in 2025.
