Company Overview

Originally focused on traditional banking before pivoting to serve the transportation sector, Triumph Financial (NASDAQ: TFIN) provides specialized financial services to the trucking industry, including payments processing, factoring, banking, and data intelligence solutions.

Sales Growth

Two primary revenue streams drive bank earnings. While net interest income, which is earned by charging higher rates on loans than paid on deposits, forms the foundation, fee-based services across banking, credit, wealth management, and trading operations provide additional income. Thankfully, Triumph Financial’s 6% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was decent. Its growth was slightly above the average banking company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.

Long-term growth is the most important, but within financials, a half-decade historical view may miss recent interest rate changes and market returns. Triumph Financial’s recent performance shows its demand has slowed as its revenue was flat over the last two years.

Tangible Book Value Per Share (TBVPS)

Banks operate as balance sheet businesses, with profits generated through borrowing and lending activities. Valuations reflect this reality, emphasizing balance sheet strength and long-term book value compounding ability.

This is why we consider tangible book value per share (TBVPS) the most important metric to track for banks. TBVPS represents the real, liquid net worth per share of a bank, excluding intangible assets that have debatable value upon liquidation. On the other hand, EPS is often distorted by mergers and flexible loan loss accounting. TBVPS provides clearer performance insights.

Triumph Financial’s TBVPS grew at a sluggish 1.2% annual clip over the last five years. On a two-year basis, however, dynamics have changed as TBVPS dropped by 8.5% annually ($23.54 to $19.70 per share).

Triumph Financial Quarterly Tangible Book Value per Share

Over the next 12 months, Consensus estimates call for Triumph Financial’s TBVPS to grow by 11.8% to $22.02, top-notch growth rate.
