Forward Guidance
Wintrust expects to leverage its diversified loan portfolio to outperform peers with respect to loan growth which should allow them to continue to expand net interest income. They are focused on taking advantage of market opportunities to prudently deploy excess liquidity into earning assets including core and niche loans and investment securities while maintaining an interest rate sensitive asset portfolio.
Positive Outlook
- Expect to benefit as short term interest rates rise.
- Approximately 80% of current loan balances are projected to reprice or mature in the next 12 months.
- Assuming an immediate and parallel 25 basis point rate hike, the cumulative increase to net interest income in the subsequent 12 months is approximately $40-$50 million.
- Focused on expanding market share of purchase originations and finding efficiencies in delivery channels to reduce costs.
- The Company’s gross commercial and commercial real estate loan pipelines remained robust as of March 31, 2022 indicating momentum for continued loan growth in the second quarter of 2022.
Challenges Ahead
- Expect that mortgage originations in the second quarter of 2022 will remain relatively similar to the first quarter of 2022.
