Bank OZK is a U.S. regional bank with 73% of the loan portfolio allocated to real estate financing. Preferred dividends were well-covered by net income in 2024 and Q1 2025. Likewise, preferred equity enjoys a substantial common equity buffer. Fed rate cuts should result in incremental capital gains, supplementing the already attractive ~7% current yield.

Bank OZK: Still A Steal Post-Q1 Results
Like so many banks, shares of Bank OZK have struggled lately. OZK recently released Q1 2025 results. Profitability remains stellar, and credit quality is holding up well. OZK's lending skews more to construction, while loans also account for a relatively large share of its assets. In periods of economic uncertainty, that can lead to underperformance.
