POSITIVE IMPACT
Analysts have a positive outlook on Amerant Bancorp with an increased average price target of $25.5. The company's strong revenue growth and net margin are positive indicators, while the low ROA and high debt-to-equity ratio are areas of concern.

The company's solid financial performance, as indicated by its revenue growth and net margin, supports this view. However, the low ROA and high debt levels could be potential risks that investors should monitor.
