As at 3 Nov 2026, BankUnited, Inc. ranks 40 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Value (85 of 100).

What the data says: the median 12-month target from 11 analysts implies +6.8% from the last close, and Ticker Nerd's factor model ranks BankUnited, Inc. 40 out of 100 as at 3 Nov 2026. Analyst targets are third-party estimates and frequently wrong; none of this is personal advice.
No analyst covering BankUnited, Inc. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for BKU are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $40 to $51 over the next 12 months.
