BXS - BancorpSouth: A Sleepy Bank That Could Be A 'Hold' Forever
BancorpSouth Bank
Based in Tupelo, Mississippi, BancorpSouth Bank (BXS) has had a difficult first half of the year. However, when compared to the rest of the banking industry, the overall shareholder return (price + dividend) has actually been rather sanguine.
In the first quarter of 2020, the bank generated a net profit of $0.21 per share, which was followed up with a solid $0.57 per share in the second quarter. After backing out some non-core related items, I came away with core-EPS of $0.27 and $0.60 for the first and second quarters, respectively.
