Sterling National Bank provides various banking and financial products and services primarily in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. It provides depository and cash management services and a broad portfolio of financing solutions-including working capital lines, accounts receivable and inventory financing, factoring, trade financing, payroll funding and processing, equipment financing, commercial and residential mortgages and mortgage warehouse lines of credit. Sterling Bancorp, formerly known as Provident New York Bancorp, is headquartered in New York. " (10/30/2018)
2. Maxim Group analysts commented, "STL reported 3Q18 EPS of $0.52, matching consensus. However, loans were slightly down linked-quarter (due to competition) and the core NIM was down 5bps (though within the company’s guidance range). In reaction to these disclosures (and apparently to the strategies discussed below), STL shares sold off 10%. We regard this as a major over-reaction from an already oversold position." (10/25/2018)
