Regions Financial: Use The Preferred Shares As An Income Boost

  • Regions Financial delivers robust financial results, with rising net interest income and improving asset quality, supporting confidence in both common and preferred shares. The (relatively) new Series F preferred shares offer an attractive 6.95% yield, with a five-year reset tied to the 5-year US Treasury rate, providing future dividend visibility. Common shares are appealing at 11x earnings and a 4%+ dividend yield, with potential for further increases based on strong EPS projections.
