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. Luckily, Coastal Financial’s revenue grew at an incredible 49.7% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years. Its growth surpassed the average banking company and shows its offerings resonate with customers, a great starting point for our analysis.

We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within financials, a half-decade historical view may miss recent interest rate changes, market returns, and industry trends. Coastal Financial’s annualized revenue growth of 18.8% over the last two years is below its five-year trend, but we still think the results suggest healthy demand.

This quarter, Coastal Financial reported robust year-on-year revenue growth of 25.6%, and its $144.7 million of revenue topped Wall Street estimates by 2%.

Net interest income made up 71.5% of the company’s total revenue during the last five years, meaning lending operations are Coastal Financial’s largest source of revenue.

Net interest income commands greater market attention due to its reliability and consistency, whereas non-interest income is often seen as lower-quality revenue that lacks the same dependable characteristics.

Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth.

Tangible Book Value Per Share (TBVPS)

Banks profit by intermediating between depositors and borrowers, making them fundamentally balance sheet-driven enterprises. Market participants emphasize balance sheet quality and sustained book value growth when evaluating these institutions.

This explains why tangible book value per share (TBVPS) stands as the premier banking metric. TBVPS strips away questionable intangible assets, revealing concrete per-share net worth that investors can trust. EPS can become murky due to acquisition impacts or accounting flexibility around loan provisions, and TBVPS resists financial engineering manipulation.

Coastal Financial’s TBVPS grew at an incredible 22.6% annual clip over the last five years. TBVPS growth has recently decelerated a bit to 21.3% annual growth over the last two years (from $21.38 to $31.45 per share).

Over the next 12 months, Consensus estimates call for Coastal Financial’s TBVPS to grow by 16.6% to $36.66, elite growth rate.
