OFG Bancorp's net interest income is projected to decline 2.1% over the next 12 months, a sharp slowdown from its 3.8% annualized growth of the past two years, according to sell-side analysts. The bank's net interest margin has contracted by 55.7 basis points over the past two years to an average of 5.5%, signaling competitive pressure or an unfavorable balance sheet shift. While the stock has surged 140% over five years and trades at 1.4 times forward price-to-book, the research report suggests limited upside and points to more compelling opportunities elsewhere.
