Company News
Wells Fargo will report third-quarter results before the market opens on October 13. Bank stocks face a tough backdrop as rising Treasury yields weigh on the sector. Shares fell 1.5% on October 7 after The Wall Street Journal reported a federal investigation into the bank's lending practices. The US Department of Housing and Urban Development is examining whether it violated fair lending laws. The stock is down nearly 7% over the past month and 10% so far in 2026. In the second quarter, Wells Fargo posted net income of $6.4 billion and revenue of $22.6 billion, up 9% year-over-year. Adjusted earnings per share were $1.96, against the consensus estimate of $1.73. Analysts rate the stock "Moderate Buy," with an average price target of $99.67.
DailyPay, the on-demand pay provider, has completed a $200 million asset-backed securitisation of its receivables. This marks the company's second such transaction, following a $200 million securitisation in June 2025. The New York-based firm now has approximately $1.4 billion in debt financing backed by its on-demand pay receivables, including a $960 million secured credit facility. DailyPay is the only on-demand pay provider to access the asset-backed securitisation market. The company serves more than 2,000 employers and over 6 million employees. Its platform allows workers to access wages they have already earned before payday, with DailyPay funding the transfers without affecting employer cash flow. Citi acted as lead bookrunner and structuring agent for the transaction.
Wells Fargo is in talks with Payward, the parent company of crypto exchange Kraken, to use it as a crypto liquidity provider, according to two people familiar with the matter who spoke to CoinDesk. Under the potential arrangement, Wyoming-based Payward would supply liquidity for digital asset trading. Both companies declined to comment. The discussions reflect a broader trend of major banks partnering with established crypto companies rather than viewing them as competitors. Regulatory changes under the Trump administration have accelerated this shift. The GENIUS Act, signed in July 2025, created a federal framework for payment stablecoins, giving banks clearer rules for connecting crypto markets to traditional finance. Wells Fargo already offers spot Bitcoin ETFs to eligible wealth clients and has backed crypto compliance firm Elliptic.
Morgan Stanley upgraded Wells Fargo to buy from hold on Monday, setting a $102 price target that implies 27% upside. The bank is scheduled to report third-quarter earnings next Tuesday. Wells Fargo shares are down roughly 12% this year, lagging major peers. The underperformance stems partly from margin pressures after the Federal Reserve lifted a $1.95 trillion asset cap in June 2025. Wells Fargo expanded rapidly using pricier wholesale funding, which hurt profitability. Morgan Stanley expects margins to improve as balance-sheet growth moderates and the bank shifts toward cheaper deposit funding. Investment banking also presents upside: Wells Fargo has hired 150 senior bankers over four years and doubled fee revenue since 2022, yet still lags peers. The firm forecasts return on tangible common equity will reach 18% by 2028.
