First Financial Bankshares is flagged with three concerns: its revenue grew at a sluggish 5.3% compounded annual rate over five years, net interest income expanded at a 7.4% annualized rate, and earnings per share rose just 4.7% annually over the same period. The stock trades at 2.4 times forward price-to-book, or $34.75 per share, which suggests optimistic expectations are already priced in. Analysts recommend looking elsewhere, pointing to a fast-growing restaurant franchise as a preferred alternative.
