PARKE BANCORP, INC. represents a hold based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our model assigns PARKE BANCORP, INC. a Hold rating, with a composite score of 58.8/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #805 of 7,333 stocks, PKBK presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
PKBK's quality score of 34/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of 10.9% (sector avg: 9.0%), gross margins of 0.0% (sector avg: 77.7%), net margins of 24.8% (sector avg: 21.9%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
PKBK's value score of 66/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 9.42x, an EV/EBITDA of 7.29x, a P/B ratio of 1.02x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
PARKE BANCORP, INC.'s investment score of 24/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 20.9% vs. a sector average of 10.7% and a return on assets of 1.6% (sector: 1.3%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
PKBK shows strong momentum characteristics with a score of 87/100. The stock has been trending above key moving averages, indicating solid demand from institutional buyers. Revenue growth stands at 20.9% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.60 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. This level of momentum typically signals sustained investor confidence and favorable near-term price action.
PKBK shows good financial stability with a score of 73/100. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.60 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 590.00x (sector avg: 0.5x). This suggests manageable leverage and moderate price volatility, making it appropriate for investors seeking a balance between growth potential and capital preservation.
PKBK carries a short interest score of 61/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 590.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $251M market cap (micro-cap), PARKE BANCORP, INC. offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
PKBK pays a solid dividend yield of 3.4%, contributing an income component to total returns. This compares to a sector average dividend yield of 2.0%. This moderate yield suggests a balance between returning capital to shareholders and retaining earnings for reinvestment — a common profile among quality compounders.
PARKE BANCORP, INC. is a micro-cap company in the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #805 of 7,333 overall (89th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 10.9% exceeding the 9.0% sector median and operating margins of 32.0% above the 18.1% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate peers.
While PKBK currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the FINANCE, INSURANCE, AND REAL ESTATE sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
