Heritage Financial: Positioned For Accretive Growth
Heritage Financial is well-positioned for growth in the Pacific Northwest, leveraging a strong capital base and potential for M&A-driven expansion. The bank boasts a low-cost, stable deposit base and excellent credit quality, supporting above-peer profitability and resilience. Management succession is smooth, with no expected strategic shifts; capital will focus on organic growth and acquisitions rather than buybacks.

Heritage Financial Q1: Still Sitting On The Sidelines
Despite a 39.8% stock increase, I maintain a "Hold" rating on Heritage Financial Corporation shares due to high uninsured deposit exposure and mediocre asset quality. Q1 2025 showed revenue and earnings growth, but fell short of analysts' expectations, causing a 1.5% drop in share price. Heritage Financial's balance sheet shows rising deposits and reduced debt, but office asset exposure and high vacancy rates are concerning.
