FirstBank’s First Quarter Results Reflect Community Engagement and Stability

FirstBank uplifts small businesses with the “It Takes Courage” campaign

LAKEWOOD, Colo., May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FirstBank, one of the nation’s largest privately held and top-performing banks with a focus on “banking for good,” announced its 2025 first-quarter summary of the company’s holdings and activities. The bank reported the following quarter-end results:

  • Net income in the first quarter of 2025 was $82.8 million
  • Total deposits were $23.8 billion 
  • Net loans were $15.8 billion  
  • Total assets were $27.1 billion 

Near the end of the quarter, FirstBank closed the sale of its California Market and four branch locations, successfully transitioning all California accounts and branches to California Bank and Trust (CB&T), a division of Zions Bancorporation. The sale was an important move for the bank, allowing it to focus more on strategic growth opportunities in Colorado and Arizona.

“The decisions FirstBank makes are strategically aimed at long-term growth,” said Kevin Classen, CEO of FirstBank. “We will continue to invest in small businesses and local initiatives that drive progress and create a lasting impact.”

Moreover, the bank continues to support small businesses with its “It Takes Courage” video series, which highlights small businesses taking a leap of faith to make their big business dreams come true.
