SouthState Bank Keeping Its Foot Firmly On The Accelerator
SouthState continues to aggressively pursue growth across the Southeastern U.S., and the acquisition of Independent Bank gives the company a foothold in the attractive Texas market. IBTX will give SouthState some attractive growth leverage, and long-term funding and margin improvement opportunities, but a retail and office-heavy portfolio is a near-term risk. I expected around 7% core earnings growth from SouthState before the deal, supporting a fair value in the low-$80's, and I think IBTX will be a value-adding deal over time.
