In Q3 2026, the company reported net income of $8.1M ($0.30 diluted EPS) versus $10.9M ($0.57 EPS) in Q3 2025. The merger added $877.8M in fair-value loans and $1.1B in deposits as of close; year-to-date loan growth was $1.0B (+40.2%) and deposit growth was $1.1B (+36.4%). Non-core merger expenses totaled $15.2M YTD. The board declared a $0.12/share quarterly dividend (payable Nov. 20, 2026). Q3 net interest margin expanded to 4.65% from 4.56% in Q2, benefiting from 38 basis points of fair-value mark accretion.
Why this rating
Major M&A event (40% asset increase YTD) material to a $337M company; but integration costs depress near-term EPS; revenue accretion apparent in NIM and deposit base.
