Piper Sandler and Keefe Bruyette have, at different points in 2026, raised their price targets by about US$1. This signals that some analysts see upside potential if Banc of California executes on its current plan.
The earlier target increases suggest there is still a case, in some research, for the bank to close part of the gap between its modeled fair value and where more cautious targets are being reset.
Piper Sandler later reduced its target by US$3, and JPMorgan cut by US$4.50. This highlights concerns around earnings power and execution risk that could limit how quickly the story improves.
The combination of recent target cuts and prior increases underlines how divided analysts are on growth prospects and valuation. As a result, there is a wider range of opinions on what counts as a reasonable trading range.
