Latest FinWise Bancorp Stock News

As of September 11, 2026, FinWise Bancorp had a $185.1 million market capitalization, putting it in the 26th percentile of companies in the Banks industry.

Currently, FinWise Bancorp’s price-earnings ratio is 13.9. FinWise Bancorp’s trailing 12-month revenue is $116.8 million with a 11.7% profit margin. Year-over-year quarterly sales growth most recently was 56.2%. Analysts expect adjusted earnings to reach $0.720 per share for the current fiscal year. FinWise Bancorp does not currently pay a dividend.

The outlook for Regional Banks remains neutral. With the Federal Reserve committed to keeping rates at near-zero for the foreseeable future, low interest rates reduces the revenue that banks are able to create from net interest margins. While the margin is low, it is expected to hold steady as the Federal Reserve maintains their current policy. Long term interest rates have recovered from declines in early 2021, with 10-year Treasuries reaching 1.35% after lows of around 1% in early 2021. The Pandemic is still effecting many aspects of banking, including commercial real estate development and industrial loans. The US government loan forbearance ending in March, banks will most likely see increases on loan losses throughout this year. We remain optimistic on performance ahead with lower-than-expected loan loss provision and both net interest income and fees contributing to the upside, albeit offset by rising expenses. For Q2 2021 compared to Q1 2021, we expect U.S. regionals to report: 1) higher net interest income (ex-PPP) reflecting subdued loan growth and relatively stable net interest margins (NIM); 2) NIM benefiting from accelerated recognition of PPP fees as stimulus loans are forgiven; 3) varied fee trends reflecting higher mortgage refinancing but lower originations; robust capital markets and investment banking; seasonally improved service charges and card fees; and asset management fees benefiting from market appreciation; 4) controlled expenses partially offset by higher compensation expense; 5) benign provisions with continued reserve releases expected as the banks lower the weighting of their adverse scenarios; and 6) modest share count with buybacks expected to resume in Q3 2021 for 11 U.S. regionals in our coverage.

Here, we’ll take a closer look at FinWise Bancorp’s stock grades for value, growth and quality. Learn more about A+ Investor here!

FinWise Bancorp Stock Value Grade

Value Grade:

Metric Rank FINW Sector Median
Price/Sales 41 1.48 3.13
Price/Earnings 34 13.9 12.7
EV/EBITDA na na 9.5
Shareholder Yield 63 (2.6%) 2.1%
Price/Book Value 19 0.92 1.32
Price/Free Cash Flow 67 28.4 13.4

Buying stocks that are going to go up typically means buying stocks that are undervalued in the first place, although momentum investors may argue that point.

AAII’s A+ Investor Value Grade is derived from a stock’s value score. The value score is the percentile rank of the average of the percentile ranks of the price-to-sales ratio, price-earnings ratio, enterprise-value-to-EBITDA (EV/EBITDA) ratio, shareholder yield, price-to-book-value ratio and price-to-free-cash-flow ratio. The score is variable, meaning it can consider all six ratios or, should any of the six ratios not be valid, the remaining ratios that are valid. To be assigned a Value Score, stocks must have a valid (non-null) ratio and corresponding ranking for at least two of the six valuation ratios.

Stocks with a Value Score from 81 to 100 are considered deep value, those with a score between 61 and 80 are a good value and so on.

FinWise Bancorp has a Value Score of 55, which is Average.

FinWise Bancorp Stock Growth Grade

Growth Grade:

Metric Metric Score FINW Sector Median
Sales Growth 5yr Ann'l 40 20.1% 7.7%
Sales Increases YoY Last 5 yrs 80 4 of 5 4 of 5
Cash from Operations Ann'l Positive Last 5 yrs 40 2 of 5 5 of 5

The foundation of growth investing is seeking out stocks of companies exhibiting strong, consistent and prolonged growth that is expected to continue into the future.

In order to compute the Growth Score and assign it a letter grade, the percentile ranks for each of the three individual components‐consistency of annual sales growth, five‐year sales growth rankings adjusted for extreme levels, and consistency of positive annual cash from operations‐must be determined. These three rank figures are added together, and the sum is ranked against the entire stock universe to arrive at a company’s Growth Score to create an equal distribution of grades.

The companies in the bottom 20% of the stock universe receive Growth Grades of F, considered Very Weak, while those in the top 20% receive A grades, which are considered Very Strong.

FinWise Bancorp has a Growth Score of 26, which is Weak.

FinWise Bancorp Stock Earnings Estimate Revisions Grade

Estimate Revisions Grade:

Metric Score FINW Sector Median
Quarterly Surprise SUE Latest Qtr 9 (2.5) 1.8
Quarterly Surprise SUE Prior Qtr 2 (9.6) 1.3
EPS Est Current Year % Rev Last Month 28 0.0% 0.0%
EPS Est Current Year % Rev 3 Mos 9 (36.1%) 1.0%

The Earnings Estimate Revisions Score considers the magnitude of a company’s earnings surprise in its last two reported fiscal quarters. Often, positive surprises beget further positive surprises‐or at least continued sales growth (the exact opposite is generally true, too).

Estimate revisions offer an indication of what analysts are thinking about the short-term prospects of a firm. The Earnings Estimate Revisions Score is based on the statistical significance of a firm’s last two quarterly earnings surprises and the percentage change in its consensus estimate for the current fiscal year over the past month and past three months.

FinWise Bancorp has an Earnings Estimate Revisions Score of 12, which is Very Negative.
