Evercore ISI reiterated a Buy rating and $11.00 price target on Regions Financial (NYSE: RF) following the company's 3Q15 earnings report. RF reported 3Q15 EPS of $0.18, missing consensus of $0.20.

Analyst John Pancari commented, "RF reported 3Q15 EPS of $0.18. Ex loss from discontinued ops and FDIC insurance fee item, we peg core at $0.19 vs our and cons ests of $0.20. Modest downside due to higher LLP (-$0.01) and higher expenses (-$0.01), partly offset by higher fee income (+$0.01). Overall, a soft quarter as loan growth was in line, but NIM compressed a bit more than expected, and expenses and credit costs came in higher (NALs & NCOs up)."
