Company Overview

With roots dating back to 1913 and a name derived from "United Missouri Bank," UMB Financial (NASDAQ: UMBF) is a financial holding company that provides banking, asset management, and fund services to commercial, institutional, and individual customers.

Sales Growth

In general, banks make money from two primary sources. The first is net interest income, which is interest earned on loans, mortgages, and investments in securities minus interest paid out on deposits. The second source is non-interest income, which can come from bank account, credit card, wealth management, investing banking, and trading fees.

Thankfully, UMB Financial’s 13.2% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was exceptional. Its growth beat the average bank 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. UMB Financial’s annualized revenue growth of 19.4% over the last two years is above its five-year trend, suggesting its demand was strong and recently accelerated.

This quarter, UMB Financial reported magnificent year-on-year revenue growth of 76.7%, and its $689.2 million of revenue beat Wall Street’s estimates by 8.6%. The growth this quarter was largely due to the "continued benefits of the acquired Heartland franchise".

Net interest income made up 62.4% of the company’s total revenue during the last five years, meaning lending operations are UMB Financial’s largest source of revenue.

Tangible Book Value Per Share (TBVPS)

Banks are balance sheet-driven businesses because they generate earnings primarily through borrowing and lending. They’re also valued based on their balance sheet strength and ability to compound book value (another name for shareholders’ equity) over time.

Because of this, tangible book value per share (TBVPS) emerges as the critical performance benchmark. By excluding intangible assets with uncertain liquidation values, this metric captures real, liquid net worth per share. On the other hand, EPS is often distorted by mergers and flexible loan loss accounting. TBVPS provides clearer performance insights.

UMB Financial’s TBVPS grew at a sluggish 2.2% annual clip over the last five years. However, TBVPS growth has accelerated recently, growing by 6.7% annually over the last two years from $52.54 to $59.80 per share.
