ENTERPRISE FINANCIAL SERVICES CORP
At today's price, ENTERPRISE FINANCIAL SERVICES CORP (EFSC) is priced for 10.6% return on equity. boothcheck doesn't publish a fair value or a price target; it shows what the price assumes, so you can judge whether that bar is too high. Built from SEC EDGAR filings.
Enterprise Financial trades at about 1.2x book (book value per share $54.43) and the price implies a sustained return on equity near 10.3%, essentially what it already earns (about 10%), so the bet is on continuation, not improvement; the bank-appropriate models cluster near $58 to $61, right around the $62.17 price. The franchise is better than average: net interest margin expanded to 4.28% in the first quarter of 2026 on national deposit verticals and specialized lending, net income was $49.4
