Huntington Bancshares shares stabilized around $15.50 as management confirmed its 2026 financial guidance and projected $550 million in stock buybacks for that year, while anticipating significant cost savings from recent acquisitions.

Huntington Bancshares stock rose 0.5% Wednesday, recovering from a prior sell-off, as investors assessed its 2027 EPS target of $1.90-$1.93 and $435M in projected annual cost synergies from recent acquisitions.

Huntington Bank has named Senthil Kumar, previously the top risk officer at BNY, as its new chief risk officer. The move follows the bank's entry into a stricter regulatory category after its merger with Cadence Bank pushed assets to $279 billion.
