Upturn Advisory & Investor View for FBK

09/24/2026: FBK (2-star) is currently NOT-A-BUY. Pass it for now.

FB Financial Corp is a Tennessee-based regional bank holding company providing comprehensive retail and commercial banking services. The bank benefits from a strong regional footprint in high-growth areas, with a business model bolstered by a mix of interest-earning activities and mortgage banking. Its primary growth opportunity lies in leveraging its local market dominance to capture more business and retail deposits. However, the company faces risks from geographic concentration, interest rate sensitivity, and intense competition from larger national banking institutions. Suitable for value and dividend-focused investors, FB Financial requires ongoing monitoring of its net interest margins, credit quality, and the success of its digital transformation initiatives.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
FBK receives a 4-star rating, supported by solid unit economics, solid company fundamentals, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
FBK has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, moderate earnings growth (+5.7%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 16.7%) are partially offset by modest insider ownership of 2.09%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
FBK's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (16.7% of revenue). Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Revenue growth is FBK's strongest growth driver at +14.5% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). Earnings growth (+5.7%, moderate) and free-cash-flow growth (+11.2%, solid) are also constructive, though not equally high across every growth measure.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 83.3% and approximately 97.7% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 2.09% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
FBK generates approximately $589 of gross profit, $158 of operating income, and $167 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong cash conversion and healthy margins support the rating, although capital efficiency remains below the highest tier.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 11.46%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
FBK has a high-quality, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
