Shares of Regions Financial (NYSE:RF), a member of the S&P 500, closed at $27.04 on Friday 9 October 2026. Analyst targets sit well above that level, with the consensus implying upside of about 17.2%, and ratings lean neutral. Recent broker revisions have mostly been downward.

What Is the Latest Analyst Price Target?

Market data reports a consensus twelve-month target of $31.69 from 20 analysts, with a high of $36 and a low of $28. The second data set reports a mean of $31.84 and a median of $32 from 23 analysts, with a high of $36 and a low of $27.

The two data sets agree closely. However, the five named broker targets from the past fortnight on the second data set, from $27 to $31, average about $29.80, so recent revisions sit below the headline consensus, which still includes older, higher targets. Against the $27.04 close, it implies potential upside of about 17.2%.

What Are Wall Street Analysts Saying?

Analysts are cautious. Market data shows five Buy, twelve Hold and three Sell ratings, a consensus of Hold. The second data set records four Strong Buy, two Buy, fourteen Hold, one Sell and two Strong Sell, also a Hold consensus.

According to the second data set, recent named actions have been downbeat. Evercore ISI cut its target from $31 to $27 on 1 October with a Sell rating. J.P. Morgan lowered from $32 to $31 (Hold) on 2 October. UBS cut from $33 to $30 (Hold) on 5 October. Barclays maintained a Sell rating and $30 target on 6 October, and TD Cowen initiated coverage at Hold with a $30 target on 8 October. Market data listed only headlines for these brokers, with Morgan Stanley reiterating Hold on 1 October.

What Could Help the Stock Reach the Price Target?

The consensus target suggests analysts see room for the shares to recover if the bank shows resilient earnings, stable credit quality and healthy net interest income. Regional banks are sensitive to interest rates, deposit costs and loan growth. Market data says the bank reported earnings per share of $0.68 on 17 July 2026, against a consensus of $0.63.

What Could Prevent the Stock Reaching the Target?

The recent run of target reductions is the main concern. Four of the five most recent targets are at or below $30, below the consensus, and the lowest of $27 equals the current share price. Risks for regional banks include rising credit losses, deposit competition, pressure on lending margins and regulatory capital costs. Market data provided no guidance details.

What Should Investors Watch Next?

Investors may wish to watch for net interest income, credit quality, guidance and further target revisions after the report.
