Bank of America (NYSE:BAC)'s Series GG Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock (NYSE: BAC.PRB) underperformed on Wednesday, with a yield above 6.5%, falling short of the average yield of 7.35% in the "Financial" preferred stock category. The shares were trading at a 6.36% discount to their liquidation preference amount, a figure notably lower than the category's average discount of 17.87%.

The one-year performance chart for BAC.PRB indicates a downward trend. Despite this, the dividend history chart reveals a steady annualized dividend of $1.50, underscoring the non-cumulative nature of these preferred shares, which negates any obligation to repay missed dividends before common dividends can resume.

InvestingPro Data reveals that Bank of America has a market cap of 218.84B USD and an attractive P/E ratio of 7.74. The company has also shown promising revenue growth, with a 5.63% increase in the last twelve months, and a quarterly growth of 8.6% in FY2023.Q2. This aligns with InvestingPro Tips, which noted that the bank has seen accelerating revenue growth recently.

On the same day, both BACs.PRB and common shares (NYSE: BAC) experienced a drop, with respective declines of 1.1% and 0.3%.
