Earlier notes (2)

10-Q filed August 4: Associated Banc-corp

Revenue for the twelve months to June 2026 reached $1.69bn, a gain of 45.2% on the year. That pace held roughly steady from the prior quarter. Among the 50 regional banks we cover, this growth ranks fourth, placing Associated Banc-corp near the top on the top line. Set against that, the diluted share count rose 8.0% over the same period, spreading ownership across more shares and diluting existing holders. The combination leaves the picture mixed.

How we got here: the combined value of 6 valuation models built for a business like Associated Banc-corp (see the models table below and how they are combined) , with a 8.91% cost of equity. The models span ~$20–~$34; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Valuation models

We value Associated Banc-corp as a bank or lender, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.88 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. ~$24 ~$17–$34 Primary model, counts double
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. ~$20 ~$17–$24 Included
Price-to-book vs return on equity (peers) The price-to-book that peers with this return on equity trade on, from a line fitted across peers. ~$34 ~$18–$50 Included
Price-to-book vs peers Book value per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-book. ~$24 ~$31–$46 Included
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$33 ~$31–$40 Included
Dividend discount (two-stage) Dividends for five years at the growth the business can fund, then a steady payout and growth. ~$22 ~$18–$26 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (residual income) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$26 ~$20–$34 6 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Associated Banc-corp with banks and lenders in our coverage, using third-party market data. Model values are estimates under stated assumptions, updated as new filings arrive; not price targets or investment advice. How each model works.

Moat

58 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Associated Banc-corp's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 10 / 20

    Net income has been a median 0.9% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Durability 17 / 20

    Net margin has been a median 26.2%; its worst year was 15.2%.

  • Discipline 11 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 16.5% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 1.6% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (63 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Associated Banc-corp’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: fundamentals grade C+ (needs B+ or better).

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: no liquid put and call pair for the same expiry.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
