2025 Q3 Earnings Highlights

Key Highlights

Net Income Rises Significantly Nine-month net income reached $17.0M, up 20% YoY; diluted EPS improved to $1.62 from $1.43.
Net Interest Margin Expansion Nine-month NIM expanded 39 basis points to 3.02% driven by lower funding costs and optimized asset yields.

Preferred Stock Issuance Completed $32.5M Series A Preferred Stock private placement, using proceeds to support the pending WFB acquisition.

Risk Factors

Nonaccrual Loans Increased Nonaccrual loans rose to $7.68M (0.36% of loans) from $4.12M (0.19%) due to commercial relationship deterioration.
Interest Rate Environment Uncertainty Future NIM stability faces risk from potential interest rate fluctuations and associated changes in deposit pricing sensitivity.
WFB Merger Integration Risk Realizing anticipated benefits from the WFB merger is subject to integration difficulties, cost overruns, and market share retention.
Credit Quality Monitoring Needed ACL decreased year-to-date due to net recoveries, but management notes ongoing monitoring required due to inflation risks.

Outlook

WFB Merger Closing Anticipated Anticipate closing the Wichita Falls Bancshares merger around January 1, 2026, pending customary closing conditions satisfaction.
Strategy Focus on Organic Growth Strategy emphasizes organic loan/deposit growth and balance sheet optimization, proactively exiting credit relationships not fitting strategy.
Managing Deposit Costs Company increased interest-bearing deposit rates to attract stable funding, managing cost relative to higher-cost short-term borrowings.
Regulatory Compliance Costs Increasing costs associated with complying with new and potential future financial regulations remain an ongoing operational factor.
