White River Bancshares Co. Earns a Record $2.74 million, or $1.12 Per Diluted Share, in 3Q24; Highlighted by Net Interest Margin Expansion
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., Oct. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — White River Bancshares Company (OTCQX: WRIV), (the “Company”) the holding company for Signature Bank of Arkansas (the “Bank”), today reported net income increased substantially to $2.74 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $639,000, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023. In the preceding quarter, the Company earned $1.85 million, or $0.81 per diluted share. In the first nine months of 2024, net income increased to $5.10 million, or $2.28 per diluted share, compared to $1.76 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2023. All financial results are unaudited. All per share data has been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split issued September 4, 2024.
“Our third quarter produced record financial results, with net income and earnings per share increasing significantly compared to the year ago quarter,” said Gary Head, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our bankers achieved these quarterly earnings through strong net interest income generation and net interest margin expansion, augmented with the $12.46 million private placement of common shares that we completed in the prior quarter. The additional capital is already helping support our strategic growth plans and contributing to our bottom line. We plan to build on this earnings momentum over the next several years, as we have the right leadership team, infrastructure and technology in place to continue to optimize our operations.”
“We continue to focus on building out our deposit franchise to fund new loan activity,” said Scott Sandlin, Chief Strategy Officer. “Total deposits increased 2.2% during the quarter and 12.1% year-over-year. While rising rates changed the deposit mix as customers pursued higher yielding accounts, demand and non-interest bearing accounts remained strong. They accounted for 21.2% of total deposits, and savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts represented 37.6% of total deposits as of September 30, 2024. We see significant opportunities for growing non-interest bearing deposits in the coming quarters as we continue to attract new customers to the Bank.”
