Nomura Securities maintains a 'Reduce' on BB&T Capital (NYSE: BBT) price target of $25.00.

Nomura analyst, Brian Foran, "The company is focused on how it will adapt to an extended period of slow growth, low rates and new regulatory rules. Key points: a) efficiency, b) consolidation, and c) revenue opportunities from re-intermediation and market share gains. Similar to other banks we met recently, they felt there was a disconnect between the operating environment (tough but not terrible) and the recent stock price performance. They reiterated long-term ROE targets are possible even with Fed Funds at zero (but GDP growth does need to be normal)."
