NEW YORK, April 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., a leading specialist investment bank to the financial services and fintech sectors, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF), today named 17 U.S. banking institutions, just 6% of eligible banks, to the coveted 2026 KBW Bank Honor Roll. KBW congratulates the 10 returning members to this year's Honor Roll, including 1st Source Corporation (SRCE), BancFirst Corporation (BANF), Coastal Financial Corporation (CCB), Esquire Financial Holdings, Inc. (ESQ), First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (FCNCA), HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. (HTB), Magyar Bancorp, Inc. (MGYR), Northeast Bank (NBN), NorthEast Community Bancorp, Inc.

Stifel Financial is a durable, relationship-driven financial franchise compounding value across cycles, with a current price undervaluing its earnings power. Q1'26 results showed 15% YoY revenue growth, record wealth management, and firm-wide pretax margins above 22%, with broad-based segment contributions. SF's outlook is supported by strong investment banking pipelines, adviser recruitment, and AI-driven productivity, positioning it for cyclical upswing without requiring perfect conditions.
Stifel Financial Corp. had decent results from pro-volatility businesses but even better results from businesses otherwise more threatened by the dealmaking slump. There may be some pause after Q1 in biotech depositories, but the decent market environment despite the Iran War may not threaten capital raising and industrial advisory too much. Growth should still be possible, though we wouldn't be surprised by some deceleration, even if overall dealmaking is supposed to have recovered, possibly driven by large tickets, though.
Stifel Financial (SF) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.45 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.39 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.33 per share a year ago.

The Value Plus Fund gained 4.95% in the first quarter, compared with the 4.96% gain for the Russell 2000 Value Index. For small-cap tech stocks, the first quarter proved to be quite strong, in part because this group had already suffered setbacks last year and, for the most part, valuations never got out of hand. One of the biggest detractors to our strategy's performance in the quarter was Stifel Financial.
