Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, in trading on Monday, shares of Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc (Symbol: PPBI) were yielding above the 6% mark based on its quarterly dividend (annualized to $1.32), with the stock changing hands as low as $21.97 on the day. Dividends are particularly important for investors to consider, because historically speaking dividends have provided a considerable share of the stock market's total return. To illustrate, suppose for example you purchased shares of the iShares Russell 3000 ETF (IWV) back on 5/31/2000 — you would have paid $78.27 per share. Fast forward to 5/31/2012 and each share was worth $77.79 on that date, a loss of $0.48 or 0.6% decrease over twelve years. But now consider that you collected a whopping $10.77 per share in dividends over the same period, increasing your return to 13.15%. Even with dividends reinvested, that only amounts to an average annual total return of about 1.0%; so by comparison collecting a yield above 6% would appear considerably attractive if that yield is sustainable. Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc (Symbol: PPBI) is a member of the Russell 3000, giving it special status as one of the largest 3000 companies on the U.S. stock markets.
In general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company. In the case of Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc, looking at the history chart for PPBI below can help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue, and in turn whether it is a reasonable expectation to expect a 6% annual yield.

PPBI Dividend Yield Pushes Above 6%

Looking at the underlying holdings of the ETFs in our coverage universe at ETF Channel, we have compared the trading price of each holding against the average analyst 12-month forward target price, and computed the weighted average implied analyst target price for the ETF itself. For the Invesco FTSE RAFI US 1000 ETF (Symbol: PRF), we found that the implied analyst target price for the ETF based upon its underlying holdings is $46.75 per unit.
With PRF trading at a recent price near $42.23 per unit, that means that analysts see 10.70% upside for this ETF looking through to the average analyst targets of the underlying holdings. Three of PRF's underlying holdings with notable upside to their analyst target prices are Delek US Holdings Inc (Symbol: DK), Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc (Symbol: PPBI), and Fulton Financial Corp. (Symbol: FULT). Although DK has traded at a recent price of $18.16/share, the average analyst target is 15.64% higher at $21.00/share. Similarly, PPBI has 13.22% upside from the recent share price of $25.74 if the average analyst target price of $29.14/share is reached, and analysts on average are expecting FULT to reach a target price of $22.83/share, which is 10.95% above the recent price of $20.58. Below is a twelve month price history chart comparing the stock performance of DK, PPBI, and FULT:
Below is a summary table of the current analyst target prices discussed above:

Are analysts justified in these targets, or overly optimistic about where these stocks will be trading 12 months from now? Do the analysts have a valid justification for their targets, or are they behind the curve on recent company and industry developments? A high price target relative to a stock's trading price can reflect optimism about the future, but can also be a precursor to target price downgrades if the targets were a relic of the past. These are questions that require further investor research.

Ex-Dividend Reminder: Brown & Brown, Pacific Premier Bancorp and OceanFirst Financial

In this series, we look through the most recent Dividend Channel ''DividendRank'' report, and then we cherry pick only those companies that have experienced insider buying within the past six months. The officers and directors of a company tend to have a unique insider's view of the business, and presumably the only reason an insider would choose to take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock in the open market, is that they expect to make money — maybe they find the stock very undervalued, or maybe they see exciting progress within the company, or maybe both. So when stocks turn up that see insider buying, and are also top ranked, investors are wise to take notice. One such company is Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc (Symbol: PPBI), which saw buying by Director Barbara Polsky.
Back on March 21, Polsky invested $28,704.00 into 1,200 shares of PPBI, for a cost per share of $23.92. In trading on Wednesday, bargain hunters could buy shares of Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc (Symbol: PPBI) and achieve a cost basis 5.4% cheaper than Polsky, with shares changing hands as low as $22.64 per share. Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc shares are currently trading 0.00% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of PPBI shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, PPBI's low point in its 52 week range is $17.53 per share, with $30.13 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $22.93. By comparison, below is a table showing the prices at which insider buying was recorded over the last six months:
The DividendRank report noted that among the coverage universe, PPBI shares displayed both attractive valuation metrics and strong profitability metrics. For example, the recent PPBI share price of $22.98 represents a price-to-book ratio of 0.8 and an annual dividend yield of 5.74% — by comparison, the average company in Dividend Channel's coverage universe yields 4.7% and trades at a price-to-book ratio of 2.2. The report also cited the strong quarterly dividend history at Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc, and favorable long-term multi-year growth rates in key fundamental data points.
The report stated, ''Dividend investors approaching investing from a value standpoint are generally most interested in researching the strongest most profitable companies, that also happen to be trading at an attractive valuation. That's what we aim to find using our proprietary DividendRank formula, which ranks the coverage universe based upon our various criteria for both profitability and valuation, to generate a list of the top most 'interesting' stocks, meant for investors as a source of ideas that merit further research.''
The annualized dividend paid by Pacific Premier Bancorp Inc is $1.32/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend ex-date was on 02/08/2024. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for PPBI, which the report stressed as being of key importance. Indeed, studying a company's past dividend history can be of good help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue.

This Stock Has A 5.74% Yield, Sells For Less Than Book, and Insiders Have Been Buying

WASHINGTON, March 27 (Reuters) - U.S. banks with significant lending exposure to some multi-family properties and particularly rent-controlled housing are vulnerable to posting losses this year on rising costs facing landlords, according to Fitch Ratings analysts.
On a Wednesday call, Fitch Ratings analysts highlighted the risks facing banks which have underwritten loans behind apartment complexes and other multifamily properties.
Lending by banks to multifamily borrowers grew 32% since 2020 to $613 billion at the end of 2023, according to a March 19 report by Fitch.
But supply has begun to outstrip demand, creating downward pressure on the rents landlords can charge, Fitch noted during Wednesday's call. These landlords also face rising interest rates and insurance premiums, coupled with decreasing apartment values.
These factors have weighed on several regional banks with high exposure to the asset class, and in particular those most exposed to rent-controlled multifamily loans, where landlords face a ceiling on rent increases to offset rising costs.
"Especially in the more stringent rent-controlled areas, there is a limited ability to make up that difference," said Brian Thies, senior director at Fitch, on Wednesday's call.
"So I would say it can be a concern for loan performance at this point."
This was seen in late February, when regional bank New York Community Bancorp NYCB.N posted $2.7 billion in losses and a $552 million provision for credit losses in its fourth quarter, including on a New York-based rent-controlled multifamily loan.
Fitch highlighted 10 banks with the greatest multifamily loan exposure as of year-end 2023. Flagstar Bank FBCANK.UL , which merged with New York Community Bancorp in 2022, topped the list with 43.6% of its loan portfolio in multifamily.
Other banks with a high proportion of multifamily loans include First Foundation Bank, Dime Community Bank DIMCDB.UL , Pacific Premier Bank PPBI.O and Apple Bank for Savings PPBI.O , according to Fitch.
These and other banks are exposed to rent-controlled multifamily loan markets in states with stringent rent-control laws including California, New York, New Jersey and Oregon.
There were 49 banks at the end of 2023 with at least 5% of multifamily loans past due on their payments, the ratings agency noted. Most of these consisted of regional and community banks.
The most capital-constrained banks will likely look to sell more of these loans - and at a loss, the Fitch analysts noted.
"We would consider most U.S. banks as well-reserved currently for multifamily lending," Thies said.
"But it's generally going to come down to the value of the collateral and how readily the bank can dispose of that."

US banks face loss risk from multi-family property loan exposure, says Fitch

About Peter Lynch: Perhaps the greatest mutual fund manager of all-time, Lynch guided Fidelity Investment's Magellan Fund to a 29.2 percent average annual return from 1977 until his retirement in 1990, almost doubling the S&P 500's 15.8 percent yearly return over that time. Lynch's common sense approach and quick wit made him one of the most quoted investors on Wall Street. ("Go for a business that any idiot can run -- because sooner or later, any idiot probably is going to run it," is one of his many pearls of wisdom.) Lynch's bestseller One Up on Wall Street is something of a "stocks for the everyman/everywoman", breaking his approach down into easy-to-understand concepts.
