Banking is getting hammered at this time due to fall out from sub prime lending. This is a solid growth small bank

Well run bank that serves the growing Hispanic community in TX, who will be an increasing economic presence. Well positioned branches in HEB supermarkets will provide the company with increased customer contact at a lower cost than other banks and allow it to piggy back on the success of its host.

Outperformed S&P since 1996. P/E is reasonable. CEO has been w/ company more than 30 years and is 2nd largest shareholder. A/L is 1.0. Would like to see more cushion but past 3 yrs of expansion activity have increased cost so expenditure makes sense.

Recent news regarding the Texas and Oklahoma economies and analyst estimates has led me to rethink my initial report regarding IBOC.

Joining the Citron crowd. Especially like the links to the S&L scam.

After many years of stellar performance, has taken a hit for past three years. Good fundamentals and supposedly no sub-prime exposure.
Annual stock splits (missed one in last 7 years) and good yield.
Prime for take-over by national or international bank.
Good management.

Looked like a placid, low profile performer with a dividend that could take advantage of 21st century ethno-demography.

Another survivor I do believe.

great stock

Got lumped in with all the other banks during the subprime mess. 3rd quarter numbers should have them smelling like roses.

This one will take a while but my secret hope is that it will get bought out in a Bank merger. I also think the Laredo area is primed for growth.

Stock that has beat the S&P 500 most of 2008 and insiders own more than 10 percent of the stock.

Has been beaten down,but still remains a profitable banking business. They even have a branch in my local Wal-Mart!

Banks make money, that's what they do best! I like the acquisition potential here for a quick turnaround in a year or so.

Did Citron let me down on this one? Say it ain't so!

The beauty of this pick is that there are zero analysts covering this company. Peter Lynch would approve I think.
