Citizens Community Bancorp (Nasdaq: CZWI) reported second quarter 2026 net income of $1.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, down from $3.8 million ($0.39) in first quarter 2026 and $3.3 million ($0.33) a year earlier, mainly due to higher credit loss provisions tied to three commercial loan relationships.

Pre-provision net revenue rose to $5.56 million, up 3.3% sequentially and 3.1% year over year, as net interest income increased $0.5 million on a 4-basis point net interest margin expansion and loan growth of $24.7 million. Nonperforming assets increased $14.2 million to $32.4 million, and the allowance for credit losses on loans rose to $25.9 million, or 1.87% of total loans and 82% of nonperforming loans. Tangible book value per share grew to $16.55, up 9.2% from June 30, 2025, and tangible common equity to tangible assets was 8.96%. The board approved a quarterly dividend of $0.105 per share, payable August 21, 2026, to shareholders of record on August 7, 2026.

Key Terms

pre-provision net revenue, nonaccrual loans, available-for-sale, tangible common equity
4 terms
pre-provision net revenue financial
"Pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”) increased 3.3% during the quarter"
Pre-provision net revenue is a bank’s income from core operations — interest earned minus interest paid plus fees and other operating income, after operating costs — measured before setting aside funds for potential loan losses. Investors use it to gauge how well a bank’s everyday business generates money independent of one-time loss reserves, like judging a store’s sales and operating profit before accounting for an expected number of returned items.
nonaccrual loans financial
"two CRE loan relationships totaling $8 million moved to substandard nonaccrual"
Nonaccrual loans are loans a lender has stopped counting toward interest income because the borrower is overdue or unlikely to pay; the lender only records cash payments received and may set aside extra funds to cover potential losses. For investors, a rising number or amount of nonaccrual loans signals weaker credit quality, lower future interest revenue and larger potential write-downs — similar to pausing expected subscription income when many customers stop paying.
available-for-sale financial
"lower unrealized losses on the available-for-sale investment portfolio"
A classification for bonds, stocks or other investments that a company plans to keep but might sell before they reach full term. Think of it like items a shop keeps on a shelf for potential sale: their market value can go up or down while the company holds them, and those unrealized gains or losses are shown separately from operating profit until they are sold. Investors watch this because large swings can change a company’s reported net worth and signal how much flexibility it has to raise cash quickly.
tangible common equity financial
"Tangible common equity (“TCE”) as a percent of tangible assets"
Tangible common equity is the portion of a company’s net worth that belongs to ordinary shareholders after removing intangible items (like goodwill or patents) and any preferred claims; it’s often expressed on a per-share basis. Think of it as the hard, sellable value left for common owners if you removed non-physical assets and paid off debts—investors use it to judge how much real cushion a company has and whether the stock might be under- or over-valued.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis., July 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Citizens Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CZWI), the parent company of CCFBank N.A. (the “Bank” or “CCFBank”), today reported earnings of $1.1 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.11 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3.8 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.39 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and $3.3 million and $0.33 earnings per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reported earnings of $4.9 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.50 compared to the prior year period of $6.5 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.65.

The Company’s second quarter 2026 operating results reflected the following changes from the first quarter of 2026: (1) increased provision for credit losses of $3.6 million; (2) lower non-interest income of $0.5 million largely due to lower gains on sale of loans, with these changes partially offset by; (3) an increase in net interest margin of 4 basis points due to lower interest-bearing deposit costs, along with the higher portfolio loan yields, offset by the impact of new nonaccrual loans. This net interest margin increase, along with one additional business day during the current quarter of $0.1 million, and an increase in average interest-earning assets, increased net interest income by $0.5 million; and (4) lower non-interest expense of $0.2 million resulted in an increase in pre-provision net revenue of $0.2 million. In addition, lower income tax expense of $0.7 million was recognized in the quarter.

Book value per share increased to $19.83 at June 30, 2026, compared to $19.82 at March 31, 2026, and increased from $18.36 at June 30, 2025. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP)1 was $16.55 at June 30, 2026, compared to $16.52 at March 31, 2026, and increased 9.2% from $15.15 at June 30, 2025. For the second quarter of 2026, the increase in tangible book value was due to quarterly net income, the impact of lower unrealized losses on the available-for-sale investment portfolio, partially offset by payment of the quarterly dividend. Stockholders’ equity as a percentage of total assets was 10.55% at June 30, 2026, compared to 10.47% at March 31, 2026. Tangible common equity (“TCE”) as a percent of tangible assets (non-GAAP)1 was 8.96% at June 30, 2026, compared to 8.88% at March 31, 2026.

“We are disappointed with the impact three loan relationships had on net income, but have undertaken an aggressive posture to mitigate their future earnings influences. Specifically, one loan relationship ceased operations and was downgraded to substandard nonaccrual. This loan relationship had a $3.8 million ACL provision impact including a $1.2 million charge-off, with a specific reserve established equal to the owner occupied real estate loan exposure. In addition, two CRE loan relationships totaling $8 million moved to substandard nonaccrual from pass in the quarter. Dedicated workout resources and processes are in place to resolve substandard and nonperforming loan levels. The underlying strength of our business remained positive with loan growth of $24.7 million, up 1.8% in the linked quarter or 7.2% annualized, and deposits up 5.1% versus the same prior year period. Net interest margin expansion continued, more than offsetting the impact of elevated nonaccruals. Tangible book value increased $0.03 per share after the quarterly dividend payment and reduction in AOCI, and the Company was well capitalized with a TCE ratio of 8.96%,” according to Stephen Bianchi, Chairman, President, and CEO.

June 30, 2026, Highlights:

  • Quarterly earnings were $1.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, a decrease compared to earnings of $3.8 million, or $0.39 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and a decrease from $3.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
  • For the six months ended June 30, 2026, earnings were $4.9 million or $0.50 per diluted share compared to $6.5 million or $0.65 per diluted share for the six-month period one year earlier. The decline in earnings for the six-month period primarily relates to increases in the provision for credit losses for the most recent six-month period, mostly due to the second quarter of 2026 increases, modestly offset by increases in pre-provision net revenue.
  • Pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”) increased 3.3% during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $5.56 million from $5.38 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and increased 3.1% from $5.40 million over the past year.
  • PPNR for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased 20.0% to $10.9 million from $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, largely due to increases in net interest income.
  • Net interest income increased $0.5 million to $13.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, from $13.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and increased from $13.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase in net interest income from the first quarter of 2026 was primarily due to a 4-basis point increase in net interest margin, due to: (1) lower interest-bearing deposit costs; (2) reductions in lower yielding cash and securities; and (3) an increase in the yield on the performing loan portfolio, along with higher average balance of loans, and an additional day in the quarter. The overall yield on the loan portfolio decreased during the second quarter due to the impact of new nonaccrual loans and the repurchase of delinquent government guaranteed loans.
  • The provision for credit losses was $4.33 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to a provision for credit losses of $0.75 million for the first quarter of 2026. Factors affecting the second quarter provision for credit losses include: (1) a net increase of $3.1 million in specific reserves on nonaccrual loans to $6.3 million at June 30, 2026; and (2) charge-offs of $1.42 million. A reduction in the duration of the loan portfolio more than offset the impact of new loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans increased to $25.9 million or 82% of total nonperforming loans and 1.87% of total loans.
  • Non-interest income decreased by $0.5 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $2.6 million from $3.1 million in the prior quarter and decreased $0.2 million from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in the second quarter of 2026 from the first quarter of 2026 and the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to lower gains on the sale of loans.
  • Non-interest expense decreased $0.2 million to $10.5 million from $10.7 million for the previous quarter and decreased $0.2 million from $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-interest expense compared to the linked quarter was driven primarily by lower compensation costs, as reduced incentive accruals more than offset the annual merit raises included in the last payroll period of the first quarter. Additionally, a one-time $0.1 million reduction in data processing expense was more than offset by the increase in other expenses, primarily related to the impact of higher nonperforming assets.
  • The effective tax rate was 10.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 18.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and 19.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2026 from the first quarter of 2026 was due to the reduction in the tax rate for the full year, based on lower income, recognized in the second quarter on a lower tax rate of 4.6% and a reduction in the tax rate of 3.4% from the previous quarter due to the increased benefit of securities maturities.
  • Loans receivable increased $24.7 million during the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $1.383 billion compared to the prior quarter end. The increase in loans reflected new loan originations with some completed construction loans moving to CRE and multi-family due to completion of construction.
  • Nonperforming assets increased $14.2 million to $32.4 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $18.2 million at March 31, 2026. The increase was largely due to: (1) the addition of a $4.2 million owner-occupied commercial real estate loan, secured by real estate and equipment, with a specific reserve established equal to the owner occupied real estate loan exposure; (2) a local loan relationship totaling $5.7 million secured by two campgrounds; (3) a multi-use multi-family/retail loan of $2.7 million that had performed for 10 years; and (4) a net increase in repurchased government fully guaranteed loans totaling $1.4 million. The non-guaranteed portion of the loans originated with partial government guarantees decreased $0.3 million to $1.2 million at June 30, 2026. There are specific reserves of approximately 25% on the non-guaranteed government loans.
  • Special mention loans decreased $6.0 million to $19.9 million at June 30, 2026, from March 31, 2026, largely due to the migration of a loan relationship to substandard.
  • Substandard loans increased $12.7 million to $35.2 million at June 30, 2026, from March 31, 2026, primarily due to the increase in nonperforming assets discussed above.
  • Total deposits decreased $11.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $1.554 billion, and increased $76.0 million from the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the most recent quarter was largely due to seasonal decreases in public deposits of $15.8 million partially offset by seasonal increases of $8.5 million in commercial deposits.
  • The efficiency ratio was 65% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 66% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and 66% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
  • On July 23, 2026, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.105 per share. The dividend will be payable on August 21, 2026, to shareholders of record on August 7, 2026.

Balance Sheet and Asset Quality

Total assets decreased by $8.7 million during the quarter to $1.814 billion at June 30, 2026.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $27.4 million due to loan growth and seasonal reductions in deposits.

The on-balance sheet liquidity ratio, which is defined as the fair market value of available-for-sale (“AFS”) and held-to-maturity (“HTM”) securities that are not pledged and cash on deposit with other financial institutions, was 14.3% of total assets at June 30, 2026, compared to 16.2% of total assets at March 31, 2026. On-balance sheet liquidity, collateralized new borrowing capacity, and uncommitted federal funds borrowing availability was $781 million, or 246% of uninsured and uncollateralized deposits at June 30, 2026, and $799 million, or 248% at March 31, 2026.

AFS securities decreased $2.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $128.4 million from $130.9 million at March 31, 2026. The decrease was largely related to principal repayments and maturities of $4.6 million and corporate debt security redemptions of $1.8 million, partially offset by purchases of new corporate debt securities of $3.6 million and a decrease in the unrealized loss on AFS securities of $0.3 million.

HTM securities decreased $1.6 million to $77.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, from $79.0 million at March 31, 2026, due to principal repayments.

Loans receivable increased $24.7 million, or 1.8%, during the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $1.383 billion compared to the prior quarter end as loan growth was realized in commercial real estate and C&I loans.

The office loan portfolio consisted of seventy loans totaling $36 million at June 30, 2026, compared to seventy loans totaling $31 million at March 31, 2026. Criticized loans in the office loan portfolio for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, totaled $0.3 million, compared to $0.2 million at March 31, 2026, and there have been no charge-offs in office loans in the trailing twelve months. The Company has one bank holding company loan for $5 million which constitutes the only non-depository financial institution exposure.

The allowance for credit losses on loans increased by $2.9 million to $25.9 million at June 30, 2026, representing 82% of total nonperforming loans and 1.87% of total loans compared to 1.69% of total loans receivable at March 31, 2026. The provision for credit losses was $4.33 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to a provision for credit losses of $0.75 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and a provision for credit losses of $1.35 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Review of Operations

Net interest income increased by $0.5 million to $13.5 million for the current quarter ended June 30, 2026, from $13.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and increased from $13.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2026 increased due to: (1) an increase in net interest margin of 4 basis points due to a reduction in interest-bearing deposit costs; (2) a 1.4% increase in average interest earning assets; and (3) $0.1 million of increased net interest income due to one additional business day during the quarter. Overall loan yields decreased 5 basis points during the quarter due to the increase in nonaccrual loans and the repurchase of delinquent government guaranteed loans, partially offset by an increase in performing portfolio loan yields. Lower deposit costs resulted in a net interest margin increase to 3.22% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 3.18% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and an increase of 22 basis points from the quarter ended June 30, 2025, after excluding 27 basis points or $1.1 million of income recognized on loan payoffs.

Non-interest income decreased by $0.5 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $2.6 million from $3.1 million in the prior quarter and decreased $0.2 million from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in the second quarter of 2026 from the first quarter of 2026 and the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to lower gains on the sale of loans.

Non-interest expense decreased $0.2 million to $10.5 million from $10.7 million for the previous quarter and decreased $0.2 million from $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-interest expense compared to the linked quarter was driven primarily by lower compensation costs, as reduced incentive accruals more than offset the annual merit raises included in the last payroll period of the first quarter. Additionally, a one-time $0.1 million reduction in data processing expense was more than offset by the increase in other expenses, primarily related to the impact of higher nonperforming assets.

The effective tax rate was 10.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 18.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and 19.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2026 from the first quarter of 2026 was due to the reduction in the tax rate for the full year, based on lower income, recognized in the second quarter on a lower tax rate of 4.6% and a reduction in the tax rate of 3.4% from the previous quarter due to the increased benefit of securities maturities.

Certain items previously reported may be reclassified for consistency with the current presentation. These financial results are preliminary until the Form 10-Q is filed in August 2026.

1 Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as tangible book value, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity as a percent of tangible assets and return on average tangible common equity, which management believes may be helpful in understanding the Company’s results of operations or financial position and comparing results over different periods.

Tangible book value, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity as a percentage of tangible assets and return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP measures that eliminate the impact of goodwill and intangible assets on our financial position. Management believes these measures are useful in assessing the strength of our financial position.

Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this press release. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other banks and financial institutions.
