Citigroup: CCAR Is A Potential Game Changer In June 2025
Summary Citigroup's shares are undervalued at ~0.7x tangible book value, making buybacks highly attractive, especially with a projected RoTCE of 10%-11% by 2026. Citi's ability to execute buybacks is constrained by its CET1 ratio, but potential reductions in the SCB could unlock significant capital for buybacks. Long-term capital ratio targets may decrease to 11.5%-12%, driven by asset shedding, regulatory changes, and strategic pivots to stable businesses. The June 2025 CCAR results are a key catalyst; positive outcomes could trigger significant buybacks and a rapid share price increase. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaNew Narrative • Apr 08

The Recent Panic Provides An Opportunity To Buy Citigroup
Summary Citigroup stock is undervalued, trading at 75.5% of its tangible book value, presenting a strong buying opportunity amid recent market volatility. Despite subpar historical returns, Citigroup's strategic focus on high-margin businesses and a $20B stock buyback program should drive significant EPS and tangible book value growth. Simplification efforts, including selling non-core operations and investing in technology, position Citigroup to achieve a 10-11% ROTCE and improve profitability. With a robust CET1 Capital ratio and potential for 35% returns in 12-24 months, Citigroup is poised for revaluation towards its intrinsic value of $90 per share.
