Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp. Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results and Declares Common Stock Dividend

Q: What were Burke & Herbert's third-quarter 2026 earnings?

Burke & Herbert earned $36.2 million applicable to common shares, or $1.78 per diluted share, in Q3 2026. Adjusted, non-GAAP operating net income applicable to common shares was $43.4 million, or $2.14 per diluted share, excluding merger-related and other related items.

The regular $0.55-per-share cash dividend is payable December 1, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 13, 2026.

Q: What does Burke & Herbert expect from the credits behind its increase in nonperforming loans?

Burke & Herbert's allowance for credit losses was $92.5 million, or 1.15% of total loans, at September 30, 2026. Q3 total provision for credit losses was $703 thousand, down from $1.379 million in Q2 but above $262 thousand a year earlier.

Quarterly profit recovered sequentially, but diluted earnings per share remained below the year-earlier level.

Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

eps financial

"diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) of $1.78"

Earnings per share (EPS) measures how much profit a company makes for each outstanding share of its stock by dividing the company’s profit after expenses by the number of shares. It matters to investors because it shows how much of the company’s “pie” each share represents—higher EPS usually signals greater profitability per share, helps compare companies of different sizes, and influences stock valuations and investor decisions.

View in glossary

net interest margin financial

"The net interest margin (non-GAAP1) was 4.21%"

Net interest margin measures how much a bank earns from lending and investing compared with what it pays for funding, expressed as a percentage of its interest-earning assets. Think of it like a grocery store’s markup: it shows the gap between buying cost and selling price per dollar of goods — here, the cost is interest paid and the sale is interest received. Investors watch it because a higher margin usually means a bank is more profitable and better at managing interest rate and credit conditions.

common equity tier 1 regulatory

"12.03%2 Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets"

Common Equity Tier 1 is the highest-quality capital a bank holds—mainly common shares and retained profits—that acts as the primary cushion against losses. Investors use the CET1 level and ratio to judge a bank’s financial strength and regulatory standing: a bigger cushion means the bank is better able to absorb shocks, sustain payouts and borrow cheaply, much like an emergency fund for a household.

loan-to-deposit ratio financial

"ending loan-to-deposit ratio was 90.0%"

Loan-to-deposit ratio measures how much a bank has lent out compared with the money customers have deposited, expressed as a percentage. Think of it like the share of a household’s savings that has been loaned to others: a higher ratio can boost earnings but reduce cash on hand and increase risk, while a lower ratio means more liquidity but potentially lower returns—key for investors assessing a bank’s balance of profit and safety.

subordinated debt offering financial

"completed a $100 million subordinated debt offering"

A subordinated debt offering is when a company borrows money by selling bonds or loans that agree to be paid after other creditors if the company runs into trouble. Think of it as standing behind others in a line for repayment: investors receive higher interest as compensation for taking on a bigger chance of loss, and the deal can change the company’s overall risk profile, credit rating and cost of capital.

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp.

In addition, at its meeting on October 22, 2026, the board of directors declared a $0.55 per share regular cash dividend to be paid on December 1, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 13, 2026.

From David P. Boyle, Company Chair and Chief Executive Officer

“Our third quarter results reflect disciplined execution and continued momentum across the Company. Core earnings were strong, asset quality remains consistent with our moderate risk profile, and we once again delivered top-quartile returns compared to our peers. We also completed a $100 million subordinated debt offering, further strengthening our capital position and providing additional financial flexibility to support profitable growth. Our team continues to execute well, and we remain focused on delivering long-term value for our shareholders, customers, employees, and communities.”

Q3 2026 Highlights

Financial results reflect a full quarter following the May 1, 2026, completion of the merger of LINKBANCORP, Inc. ("LNKB"), with and into Burke & Herbert and the merger of LINKBANK with and into Burke & Herbert Bank & Trust Company.
The Company reported net income applicable to common shares of $36.2 million for the quarter and diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) of $1.78; excluding merger-related items and other related items, adjusted (non-GAAP¹) operating net income applicable to common shares was $43.4 million for the quarter and adjusted (non-GAAP¹) diluted EPS was $2.14.
For the quarter, the annualized return on average assets (“ROA”) was 1.30%, the annualized return on average common equity (“ROCE”) was 12.02%, and the annualized return on average tangible common equity (“ROATCE”) (non-GAAP¹) was 14.14%.
On an adjusted basis (non-GAAP¹), ROA was 1.57%, ROCE was 14.42%, and ROATCE was 16.96%.
Total shareholders’ equity was $1.2 billion and tangible common equity to tangible assets (non-GAAP¹) was 8.77%, reflecting the Company’s strong capital position.
Ending total gross loans were $8.1 billion and ending total deposits were $9.0 billion; ending loan-to-deposit ratio was 90.0%. The net interest margin (non-GAAP¹) was 4.21% for the three months ended September 30, 2026.
The balance sheet remains strong with ample liquidity. Total liquidity, including all available borrowing capacity with cash and cash equivalents, totaled $6.5 billion at the end of the third quarter.
The Company continues to be well-capitalized, ending the quarter with 12.03%² Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, 15.45%² Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets, and a leverage ratio of 10.43%.²

Results of Operations

Third Quarter 2026 compared to Second Quarter 2026

The Company reported third quarter 2026 net income applicable to common shares of $36.2 million, or $1.78 per diluted common share, compared to second quarter 2026 net income applicable to common shares of $9.3 million, or $0.50 per diluted common share.

Period-end total gross loans were $8.1 billion at September 30, 2026, an increase of $62.2 million from June 30, 2026. The Company originated $406.9 million of new, relationship-based loan commitments during the quarter.
Period-end total deposits were $9.0 billion at September 30, 2026, a decrease of $12.4 million from June 30, 2026. Brokered deposits totaled $120.7 million at September 30, 2026, which represented only 1.35% of total deposits.
Net interest income for the quarter was $105.0 million compared to $93.0 million in the prior quarter due to an increase in interest income of $17.7 million, which was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $5.8 million, primarily due to the full quarter impact of LNKB.
Net interest margin on a fully taxable-equivalent basis (non-GAAP¹) increased to 4.21% versus 4.15% in the second quarter of 2026, driven by growth in both the average balance on total loans and higher yields on total loans, partially offset by higher funding costs. The increase reflected a full quarter of LNKB results and a rising interest rate environment.
Accretion income on loans during the quarter was $9.3 million, and the amortization expense impact on interest expense was $1.5 million, or 30.4 bps of net interest margin on an annualized basis in the third quarter of 2026. In the prior quarter, accretion income on loans during the quarter was $9.3 million, and the amortization expense impact on interest expense was $1.5 million, or 34.0 bps of net interest margin on an annualized basis.
The cost of total deposits, including non-interest bearing deposits, was 1.83% in the third quarter of 2026, compared to 1.75% in the second quarter of 2026. The increase in the cost of deposits was mostly due to increases in both the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits and the rates paid on total interest-bearing deposits compared to the second quarter of 2026. The increase reflected a full quarter of LNKB results and a rising interest rate environment.
The Company recorded credit provision expense in the third quarter of 2026 of $1.5 million on loans and a recapture of credit loss expense of $0.8 million on unfunded commitments. The Company’s allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2026, was $92.5 million, or 1.15% of total loans. Asset quality metrics remain within the Company’s moderate risk profile with adequate reserve coverage. Total delinquencies increased $4.9 million to $89.6 million during the quarter, and nonperforming loans increased $12.7 million to $108.0 million during the quarter; however, the increases were concentrated in a limited number of isolated credits and do not reflect broad-based deterioration in the loan portfolio. We do not currently expect these credits to result in material charge-offs, and nonperforming loans remain at 1.34% of total loans, below 1.60% a year ago.
Total non-interest income increased $873.0 thousand to $14.7 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $13.8 million in the second quarter of 2026. The second quarter included transactions related to LNKB resulting in a loss of $1.9 million offset by company-owned life insurance income. Despite the absence of these items, non-interest income increased due to an additional month of combined debit card income and higher fiduciary and wealth management income.
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $74.5 million compared to $93.5 million in the second quarter of 2026; adjusted non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $65.3 million compared to $61.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, the increase primarily due to the full quarter impact of LNKB.

Operating net income is a non-GAAP measure that is derived from net income adjusted for significant items. The Company believes that operating net income is useful in periods with certain significant items such as merger-related expenses. The operating net income is more reflective of management’s ability to grow the business and manage expenses. Adjusted non-interest expense also removes these significant items, such as merger-related expenses. Management believes it represents a more normalized non-interest expense total for periods with identified significant items.

Total revenue is a non-GAAP measure and is derived from total interest income less total interest expense plus total non-interest income. We believe that total revenue is a useful tool to determine how the Company is managing its business and demonstrates how stable our revenue sources are from period to period.

Pretax, pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income before income taxes and to exclude provision for credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

In management's view, tangible common equity measures are capital adequacy metrics that may be meaningful to the Company, as well as analysts and investors, in assessing the Company's use of equity and in facilitating comparisons with peers. These non-GAAP measures are valuable indicators of a financial institution's capital strength because they eliminate intangible assets from shareholders' equity and retain the effect of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) in shareholders' equity.

In management’s view, tangible common assets measures complement tangible common equity measures and may be meaningful to the Company, as well as analysts and investors, in assessing balance sheet composition and leverage and in facilitating comparisons with peers. These non‑GAAP measures enhance transparency by eliminating intangible assets from total assets, thereby providing additional insight into the relationship between the Company’s tangible asset base and its tangible common equity.

In management’s view, adjusted return on average common equity, return on average tangible common equity, adjusted return on average tangible common equity, and adjusted return on average assets are performance metrics that may be meaningful to the Company, as well as analysts and investors, in evaluating the Company’s profitability and efficiency in deploying capital and assets and in facilitating comparisons with peers. These non‑GAAP measures provide additional insight into the Company’s underlying operating performance by focusing on returns generated from common equity, tangible common equity, and total assets, as applicable.

The adjusted measures exclude the after‑tax effect of one‑time merger‑related expenses, which management believes enhances period‑to‑period comparability and provides a more representative view of the Company’s ongoing earnings performance. Return on average tangible common equity measures further isolate performance attributable to tangible capital by excluding the impact of intangible assets, while return on average assets reflects the Company’s effectiveness in generating earnings from its overall asset base. Management believes these measures, when considered together and alongside GAAP results, provide useful supplemental information for assessing profitability, capital efficiency, and operating trends.

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. FTE net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain financial interest earning assets, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. Management believes FTE net interest income is a standard practice in the banking industry, and when net interest income is adjusted on an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income and this adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. FTE net interest income is only used for calculating FTE net interest margin, which is calculated by annualizing FTE net interest income and then dividing by the average earning assets. The tax rate used for this adjustment is 21%. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.
