Return on equity is net income as a share of shareholders' equity; return on tangible equity leaves out goodwill and other intangible assets. The efficiency ratio is operating costs as a share of revenue, so lower means the bank spends less to earn each dollar. Market cap is the last closing share price times the latest diluted share count, so it is approximate. P/E is the last close divided by diluted earnings per share over the last four quarters, or the latest fiscal year where the quarters aren't available; there is none when the company made a loss.

What First Commonwealth Financial does

First Commonwealth Financial is a bank holding company in Indiana, Pennsylvania. Its main subsidiary is First Commonwealth Bank, a Pennsylvania bank and trust company that provides commercial and consumer banking. It also offers trust and wealth management services and offers insurance products through an insurance subsidiary.

At December 31, 2025, the bank had 126 community banking offices in 30 counties across western and central Pennsylvania and Ohio. It also has commercial lending offices in Canfield, Canton, Hudson, Independence and Lewis Center, Ohio, and in Pittsburgh and Berwyn, Pennsylvania. It runs a network of 132 ATMs and belongs to ATM networks that let customers withdraw cash without surcharges.

Like other banks, it takes deposits and makes loans, and it earns money on the difference between what it charges on loans and pays on deposits, along with fees for its services. First Commonwealth has grown over the years by buying smaller banks and thrifts, mostly in its home area, and more recently in Ohio.

Its biggest risks, as it describes them

  • An allowance for credit losses that may turn out too small.
  • Exposure to the commercial real estate market.
  • Unrealized losses in its securities portfolio that could affect liquidity.
  • Reliance on dividends from its subsidiary bank for most of its revenue.
  • Competition from other financial institutions for loans and deposits.

The latest 12 of 24 trades. Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from their Form 4 filings with the SEC: one row per person, day and filing, at the day's average price. Grants, option exercises and shares withheld for tax aren't counted. Insiders buy and sell for many reasons, such as taxes, spreading their savings or a plan set up months earlier, so a trade on its own says little about where a company is heading.
