DA Davidson analyst Peter Winter lowered the price target for Huntington Bancshares (HBAN) from $21 to $20, while maintaining a Buy rating, due to execution risks associated with two concurrent acquisitions, primarily the completed merger with Cadence Bank. Although Huntington has a strong integration track record, Winter expects volatility in the first half of 2026 until the Cadence Bank integration is complete. A secondary concern is the potential for management to pursue further acquisitions before fully digesting current ones, which could strain execution capacity and keep investor sentiment cautious.
