New York, NY, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- South Street Securities Holdings Inc. (“South Street”) today announced that it acquired 100% of the outstanding equity in Lime Funding, LLC (“Lime Funding”) on February 28, 2026. Lime Funding is an asset‑backed commercial paper (“ABCP”) conduit designed to make loans to corporate and other institutional borrowers, with funding provided through the issuance of ABCP to investors.

Raymond James Financial is upgraded to a strong buy, driven by robust growth, earnings momentum, low leverage, and compelling valuation. RJF's growth is fueled by advisor network expansion, strong net inflows, and the Clark Capital acquisition, supporting top-line resilience through market cycles. Improving operating margins, AI-driven efficiencies, and consensus EPS growth of 11-12% YoY underpin a bullish earnings outlook, despite interest expense headwinds.

RJF tops Q2 earnings estimates on record revenues and asset growth, but rising expenses temper gains as costs climb across most components.

Although the revenue and EPS for Raymond James Financial (RJF) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended March 2026, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.
