Insights

Banking Financial Analyst

NBHC delivered strong Q2 results with 40.4% QoQ net income growth, improved margins, and minimal charge-offs, demonstrating operational strength amid careful credit management.

National Bank Holdings Corporation posted remarkably strong Q2 2025 results, with quarterly net income jumping to $34.0 million ($0.88 per diluted share), representing a substantial 40.4% increase over Q1. This impressive performance was driven by a robust net interest margin of 3.95% and disciplined expense management.

The bank's profitability metrics show significant improvement, with return on average tangible common equity reaching 14.18% (up 354 basis points QoQ) and return on average tangible assets increasing 40 basis points to 1.49%. Year-over-year, pre-provision net revenue grew by an impressive 19.9%, highlighting the bank's operational strength.

Credit quality metrics remain exceptionally strong with annualized net charge-offs at just 0.05% of average loans (down from 0.80% in Q1), and non-performing loans stable at 0.45% of total loans. The bank recorded no provision expense this quarter compared to $10.2 million in Q1, suggesting management's confidence in their current credit positioning.

The bank's balance sheet shows careful management with loans totaling $7.5 billion and a loan-to-deposit ratio of 90.5%. New loan originations came with a weighted average rate of 7.4%, comfortably above the 6.5% average yield of the existing portfolio, which should support continued margin expansion.

Capital levels remain exceptionally strong with a CET1 ratio of 14.17% and tangible book value per share increasing $0.70 to $26.64. This substantial capital buffer provides strategic flexibility for growth opportunities, including their newly launched 2UniFi platform aimed at business entrepreneurs.

The efficiency ratio improved 42 basis points to 57.3%, reflecting disciplined cost control even as the bank invests in innovative initiatives. This balanced approach to growth and efficiency demonstrates management's focus on sustainable profitability.

Second Quarter 2025 Results
(All comparisons refer to the first quarter of 2025, except as noted)

Net Interest Income
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income increased $0.7 million to $89.3 million due to one additional day during the second quarter. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin widened two basis points to 3.95%, driven by a three basis point increase in earning asset yields, partially offset by an increase in the cost of funds.

Loans
Loans totaled $7.5 billion at June 30, 2025, compared to $7.6 billion. We generated quarterly loan fundings of $322.7 million, led by commercial loan fundings of $219.6 million.

The loan to deposit ratio totaled 90.5% at June 30, 2025, compared to 90.8%. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 87.0% at June 30, 2025, compared to 87.4%.

Mortgage banking income decreased $0.8 million.

Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense totaled $62.9 million, compared to $62.0 million in the first quarter, which benefited from the $1.9 million payroll tax credits realized in the first quarter. Excluding the impact from the first quarter’s payroll tax credits, non-interest expense decreased $1.0 million due to our disciplined expense management. The second quarter’s non-interest expense includes $0.3 million of non-recurring restructuring charges as a result of expense reduction actions executed during the quarter. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio improved 42 basis points to 57.3%, excluding other intangible assets amortization.

Income tax expense totaled $7.5 million, compared to $5.6 million in the previous quarter, as a result of higher pre-tax income in the second quarter. The effective tax rate was 18.1%, compared to 18.8% in the first quarter.

Capital
Capital ratios continue to be well in excess of federal bank regulatory agency “well capitalized” thresholds. The tier 1 leverage ratio totaled 11.18%, and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio totaled 14.17% at June 30, 2025. Shareholders’ equity increased $23.2 million to $1.4 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily driven by $22.5 million of growth in retained earnings from net income after covering the quarter’s dividend, and a $4.1 million improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to changes in the interest rate environment.

Common book value per share increased $0.65 to $35.55 at June 30, 2025. Tangible common book value per share increased $0.70 to $26.64 driven by the quarter’s earnings after covering the quarterly dividend, and a $0.11 improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including “tangible assets,” “return on average tangible assets,” “tangible common equity,” “return on average tangible common equity,” “tangible common book value per share,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets,” “non-interest expense excluding other intangible assets amortization,” “efficiency ratio excluding other intangible assets amortization,” “net income excluding the impact of other intangible assets amortization expense, after tax,” “pre-provision net revenue” and “fully taxable equivalent” metrics, are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these differences by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
