Company Description
MVB Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: MVBF) is a bank holding company based in West Virginia. According to its public disclosures and investor communications, MVB Financial is the holding company for MVB Bank, Inc. and, through the Bank and the Bank’s subsidiaries, provides financial services to individuals and corporate clients in the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond. The company is classified in the Finance and Insurance sector and operates in the savings institutions and banking space.
MVB Financial states that it has identified three reportable segments: CoRe Banking, Mortgage Banking, and Financial Holding Company. The CoRe Banking segment, which includes the company’s Fintech division, represents banking products and services offered to customers by the Bank, including loans and deposit accounts. The company has disclosed that the majority of its revenue is generated from the CoRe Banking segment. Revenue from banking activities consists of interest earned on loans and investment securities and service charges on deposit accounts.
Business model and segment focus
Through its CoRe Banking segment, MVB Financial focuses on traditional banking activities such as originating and managing loans and maintaining deposit relationships. Interest income from loans and investment securities, together with service charges on deposit accounts, are central components of this segment’s revenue. The inclusion of a Fintech division within CoRe Banking reflects MVB’s approach of integrating technology-focused initiatives into its core banking operations.
The Mortgage Banking segment contributes to noninterest income, including equity method investment income from the company’s mortgage-related activities. MVB has reported that changes in equity method investment income from its mortgage segment can be a meaningful driver of quarter-to-quarter noninterest income performance. The Financial Holding Company segment reflects activities and functions at the holding company level.
Fintech incubation and Victor Technologies
MVB Financial has emphasized a Fintech incubation model within its broader banking strategy. The company has described its approach as building Fintech companies rather than simply banking them. A key example is Victor Technologies, Inc., a Fintech company founded in 2021 and incubated within MVB. Victor provided banking technology solutions that simplified direct bank–Fintech partnerships. Its APIs helped technology companies and corporations embed financial solutions within their product offerings, and its platform tools helped banks manage Fintech partnerships and compliance at scale.
Victor processed billions of dollars in payments monthly and offered an embedded payments platform with real-time payment processing, virtual ledgering and regulatory compliance tools. MVB has highlighted Victor as a demonstration of its Fintech builder strategy. In 2025, MVB entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell substantially all assets and operations of Victor Technologies to Jack Henry & Associates. The company reported that this transaction generated a significant pre-tax gain and delivered substantial returns on a Fintech company that had been incubated within MVB.
Balance sheet management and securities repositioning
MVB Financial’s disclosures show an emphasis on active balance sheet and capital management. The company has implemented an investment securities repositioning strategy that included the sale of available-for-sale investment securities with lower yields and longer lives. MVB reported that it sold municipal securities, U.S. sponsored mortgage-backed securities and U.S. government agency securities and recognized a pre-tax loss on the sale, with the stated objective of redeploying proceeds into higher-yielding securities aligned with its risk and asset/liability management objectives.
Management has described this repositioning, together with expense efficiencies from the sale of Victor Technologies, as a way to enhance earnings and profitability over time. The company has also reported the use of off-balance sheet deposit networks to generate fee income, enhance capital efficiency and manage liquidity and concentration risk, particularly in connection with certain Banking-as-a-Service deposit relationships.
Capital, dividends and share repurchases
MVB Financial’s SEC filings and press releases indicate a focus on capital strength and shareholder returns. The company reports regulatory capital ratios such as the Community Bank Leverage Ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio for MVB Bank, as well as a tangible common equity ratio at the holding company level. These metrics are used to describe what management characterizes as a strong and resilient foundation.
The company has declared recurring quarterly cash dividends of $0.17 per share for multiple quarters in 2025, noting that these dividends maintained the level declared in prior quarters. MVB has also authorized and completed stock repurchase programs. In 2025, the company disclosed a $10 million stock repurchase program that was completed, as well as the authorization of an additional $10 million stock repurchase program. Repurchases have been executed through open-market and other transactions, subject to market and regulatory considerations.
Core banking performance and deposit mix
MVB Financial’s quarterly results highlight trends in net interest income, net interest margin, loan growth and deposit growth. The company has reported periods of accelerated loan growth following prior contraction, and has described its loan pipeline as strong entering subsequent quarters. It has also reported deposit growth in certain quarters, including growth in noninterest-bearing deposits and changes in the mix of deposits, such as brokered certificates of deposit.
The company’s disclosures reference Banking-as-a-Service operations and seasonal factors that affect deposit balances and the mix of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits. Off-balance sheet deposits in Banking-as-a-Service relationships have been used to generate fee income and manage liquidity, and MVB has reported declines in certain off-balance sheet deposit relationships over time.
Asset quality and risk management
MVB Financial provides detail on asset quality indicators, including nonperforming loans, criticized loans, classified loans, net charge-offs and the allowance for credit losses. The company has reported changes in criticized and classified loans as a percentage of total loans, and has described improvements in overall asset quality in certain quarters. Provision for credit losses reflects loan growth, specific reserves associated with particular credits, write-downs of certain Fintech investments and enhancements to qualitative adjustments in the company’s current expected credit loss model.
Management communications emphasize proactive balance sheet strengthening, including bolstering the allowance for credit losses and monitoring nonperforming loans, which can be influenced by individual commercial and industrial credits in specific sectors.
Leadership and governance
MVB Financial’s SEC filings document executive transitions and governance developments. In 2025, the company disclosed the departure of its President and Chief Financial Officer, noting that the departure was to pursue other opportunities and that there were no disagreements with the company’s operations, policies or practices. The company’s Chief Executive Officer reassumed the role of President, and the boards of directors of the company and the Bank appointed a new Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and a new Chief Accounting Officer.
These filings describe employment and transition agreements, compensation terms, and post-employment covenants such as confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. Such disclosures provide insight into the company’s approach to executive succession and alignment of management incentives with corporate objectives.
Regional focus and client base
MVB Financial has stated that, through MVB Bank and its subsidiaries, it provides financial services to individuals and corporate clients in the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond. This positioning reflects a regional banking footprint with a broader reach through technology-enabled services and Fintech partnerships. The combination of traditional community banking activities, mortgage-related income and Fintech-oriented initiatives shapes the company’s overall business profile.
