Key Points:
According to Nasdaq data, the cryptocurrency-friendly bank’s shares were up 11% to $15.25 as of 11:30 a.m. EST. After the market closed on Friday, Silvergate disclosed that the bank’s involvement with the recently insolvent cryptocurrency lender Genesis involved deposits totaling less than $2.5 million.
Last week, Silvergate shared its fourth-quarter earnings, showing a $1 billion loss. Despite the loss, some analysts remain firm on the stock.
“No other bank could survive a 70% reduction in deposits and still have positive book value, more cash than core customer deposits, and be well-capitalized,” KBW analysts wrote in a recent report.
Overall, KBW continues to believe that Silvergate is stabilizing and has revised its price target from $38 to $25. The “mild crypto winter” is one of the presumptions upon which the investment bank’s view is based.
As the regulatory environment and the reaction surrounding FTX and other crypto-focused insolvencies continue to develop, analysts say the price decline should stabilize from present levels.
MicroStrategy was flat at roughly $240 in other markets. Shares of Coinbase fell 1.3% to trade around $54.40, while Jack Dorsey’s Block was trading above $79, up 3.8%.
