2025 Annual Earnings Highlights

Key Highlights

Pending Prosperity Merger Announced Agreement signed January 2026 to merge with Prosperity Bancshares; expected closing Q2 2026 for $11.36 cash plus stock consideration.
Net Income Declines 10.5% 2025 Net Income fell to $102.9M from $115.0M last year; diluted EPS dropped to $1.99 from $2.15.
Asset Quality Shows Stress Nonperforming assets rose to $60.0M (0.56% of assets) from $38.9M (0.36%); provision expense increased to $10.2M.
Strong Capital Ratios Maintained Consolidated CET1 ratio remains robust at 14.18% and Tier 1 Leverage ratio at 11.52% as of year-end 2025.

Risk Factors

Merger Completion Uncertainty Risk of failing to complete the Prosperity merger due to regulatory hurdles or shareholder approval, potentially incurring $78.0M termination fee.
Net Interest Margin Compression Tax-equivalent NIM decreased 4 basis points to 4.20% due to lower average loan yields and purchase accounting adjustments.
Deteriorating Loan Portfolio Quality Commercial real estate loans comprise 51.6% of portfolio; NPL ratio increased significantly, pressuring allowance adequacy.
Operational Reliance on Technology High dependency on third-party IT providers creates risk from security breaches or operational failures impacting service delivery.

Outlook

Post-Merger Integration Focus Management attention diverted to completing the Prosperity merger; uncertainty may affect employee retention and customer relationship continuity.
Economic Sensitivity Remains High Business success heavily concentrated in Houston/Beaumont MSAs, sensitive to regional economic downturns and real estate market volatility.
Scalable Platform Supports Growth Community banking strategy leverages scalable platform to foster organic growth and capitalize on disciplined future acquisition opportunities.
Regulatory Compliance Costs Continued compliance costs expected due to highly regulated industry status and evolving federal consumer protection laws and guidance.
