What the filing says
SouthState Bank (market cap ~$9.2B) reported Q3 2026 net income of $224M ($2.30 diluted EPS) vs. $247M ($2.46 EPS) in Q3 2025. Loans grew $1.2B (9% annualized) to $52.1B; deposits grew $1.3B (9% annualized) to $57.6B. Net interest margin (TE) declined to 3.78% from 4.06% YoY due to lower accretion income ($27M vs. $83M). Board declared quarterly dividend of $0.66/share (10% increase from $0.60), payable 11/13/2026. Company repurchased 250,000 shares at $104.45 weighted average price.
Why this rating
Solid Q3 results with NII growth and broad-based loan/deposit expansion. NIM compression and lower accretion offset by consistent performance. Dividend raise and buybacks signal confidence but represent normal capital deployment. Results are in-line with peer banking trends—material but not trajectory-altering for a $70B asset company.
