Barclays maintains an 'Underweight' on SunTrust Banks (NYSE: STI) price target of $30.00 (from $28.00).
Analyst, Jason M. Goldberg, said, "STI announced several actions to reposition its balance sheet and designed to reduce risk going forward. Net, we estimate these items will add $1.40 to reported earnings in 3Q12. While capital ratios of 9.5% Tier 1 common (reported 9.4% at 2Q12) and 7.9% (8.0%) under Basel III are relatively unchanged, tangible book value is also expected to decrease modestly."
Net net, Goldberg is raises Q3 EPS estimates from $0.45 to $1.85 and FY12 from $1.94 to $3.35. FY13 from $2.40 to $2.55.
