What the filing says
First Bancorp reported Q3 2026 net income of $10.7 million (diluted EPS $0.95), a 17.5% increase from Q3 2025's $9.1 million ($0.81 EPS). Growth was driven by net interest margin expansion to 2.99% (up 29 basis points YoY), $17.8 million in loan growth, and improved efficiency ratio to 47.94% from 50.40%. Year-to-date 2026 net income reached $29.2 million (diluted EPS $2.59), up 20.7% from 2025's $24.2 million. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share on September 24, 2026, paid October 16, 2026.
Why this rating
Strong YoY earnings growth and consecutive margin expansion demonstrate operational momentum; however, at $271M market cap, Q3 net income of $10.7M (~4% of market cap) and loan growth of $17.8M (~0.7% of $2.4B loan portfolio) are solid but not transformational. Routine dividend continuation. Asset quality deteriorated slightly YoY (NPL ratio 0.58% vs 0.40%).
