Huntington Bancshares told the Barclays 24th Annual Global Financial Services Conference that it has raised its planned 2027 share repurchase by $200 million to $1.3-$1.4 billion, and expects to complete roughly $550 million of buybacks in 2026. The larger return plan follows a recalibration of growth: organic loan-growth run rate is now seen at about 6%, down from a previous 8%-9% range, with 2027 loan growth projected at 6%-8%, a change management said should free up nearly $200 million of capital for higher repurchases. The company's board approved a $3 billion common-share repurchase authorization in April 2026, and about $2.95 billion remained available under it as of June 30, 2026. Huntington also pointed to acquisition and fee-business momentum, saying it hit its $70 million Veritex cost-synergy target in the second quarter, that Cadence is tracking toward a $365 million annualized run rate by the fourth quarter, and that cumulative revenue synergies through 2028 are now expected at approximately $600 million, up from $500 million. As of June 30, 2026, liquidity comprising cash, due from banks and interest-bearing deposits totaled about $16 billion, against $18.7 billion of long-term debt and $3.1 billion of short-term borrowings.
