Red River Bancshares (Nasdaq: RRBI) reported second quarter 2026 net income of $11.8 million, or $1.78 EPS, down 1.7% from Q1 2026 but up 15.4% from Q2 2025. Quarterly ROA was 1.43% and ROE was 12.41%. First-half 2026 net income was $23.7 million, up 15.5% year over year.

Net interest income rose to $29.0 million, with net interest margin FTE expanding 10 bps sequentially to 3.61%, driven by higher loan yields and lower deposit costs. Assets were $3.31 billion, loans HFI $2.26 billion (0.4% linked‑quarter growth), and deposits $2.91 billion, down 1.4% mainly from seasonal tax outflows and lawyer trust fluctuations.

Nonperforming assets fell 38.3% to $2.6 million (0.08% of assets) with zero net charge‑offs, and the ACL stood at $24.8 million (1.09% of loans). Noninterest income increased 4.5% to $4.7 million, while operating expenses rose 6.0% to $18.3 million. The company paid a $0.25 quarterly dividend, maintained $10.0 million of remaining 2026 repurchase authorization, completed key market relocation projects, and was added to the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE).

Key Terms

net interest margin, fully taxable equivalent, nonperforming assets, loans held for investment, +2 more
6 terms
net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) increased 10 basis points"
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.
fully taxable equivalent financial
"Net interest margin fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) increased 10 basis points"
A fully taxable equivalent converts a tax-free yield into the pretax yield you would need from a taxable investment to get the same after-tax return, using an investor’s marginal tax rate. Think of it like inflating a discounted price to the full sticker price so you can compare items side‑by‑side; investors use it to fairly compare tax-exempt securities with taxable alternatives and choose the better after-tax income.
nonperforming assets financial
"nonperforming assets (“NPA(s)”) decreased $1.6 million"
Nonperforming assets are loans or investments that are not generating expected payments or returns because the borrower has fallen behind on payments or the investment has lost value. They matter to investors because a high level of nonperforming assets can indicate financial trouble for a bank or institution, potentially affecting its stability and profitability.
loans held for investment financial
"loans held for investment (“HFI”) were $2.26 billion"
Loans held for investment are loans a bank or lender plans to keep on its balance sheet and collect payments from, rather than sell to another party. Think of it like owning a rental property instead of flipping it: the owner expects steady income but also carries the risk that borrowers may stop paying, so investors watch this line to judge a lender’s interest income stability, credit quality, and liquidity needs.
allowance for credit losses financial
"the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was $24.8 million"
Allowance for credit losses is a reserve set aside by a financial institution to cover potential losses from borrowers who may not repay their loans. It acts like a safety net, helping the institution prepare for loans that might turn sour. For investors, it signals how cautious the institution is about the quality of its loans and potential risks to its financial health.
GAAP financial
"Our accounting and reporting policies conform to United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)"
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

ALEXANDRIA, La., July 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Red River Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RRBI), the holding company for Red River Bank (the “Bank”), announced today its unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $11.8 million, or $1.78 per diluted common share (“EPS”), a decrease of $208,000 or 1.7%, compared to $12.0 million, or $1.81 EPS, for the first quarter of 2026, and an increase of $1.6 million, or 15.4%, compared to $10.2 million, or $1.51 EPS, for the second quarter of 2025. For the second quarter of 2026, the quarterly return on assets was 1.43%, and the quarterly return on equity was 12.41%.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $23.7 million, or $3.59 EPS, an increase of $3.2 million, or 15.5%, compared to $20.5 million, or $3.03 EPS, for the six months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the return on assets was 1.44%, and the return on equity was 12.68%.

Second Quarter 2026 Performance and Operational Highlights

The second quarter of 2026 financial results included an improved net interest margin and net interest income, as well as slightly lower assets and net income. We completed our Northwest market expansion and banking center relocation project. Also, one of our founding directors retired, and we welcomed two new directors to our board.

  • Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $11.8 million, down $208,000, or 1.7%, from the prior quarter. Net income for the second quarter was impacted by an expected $1.0 million increase in operating expenses, partially offset by a $563,000 increase in net interest income. Net income for the first quarter of 2026 benefited from approximately $590,000 of periodic items that reduced operating expenses.
  • Net interest income increased $563,000, or 2.0%, and net interest margin fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) increased 10 basis points (“bp(s)”) to 3.61% for the second quarter of 2026, compared to 3.51% for the prior quarter.
  • As of June 30, 2026, assets were $3.31 billion, down $35.3 million, or 1.1%, from $3.35 billion as of March 31, 2026, as a result of a $40.9 million decrease in deposits.
  • Deposits totaled $2.91 billion as of June 30, 2026, down $40.9 million, or 1.4%, from $2.95 billion as of March 31, 2026. This decrease was primarily due to the seasonal outflow of funds from customer income tax payments, along with fluctuations in lawyer trust accounts due to the timing of legal settlements.
  • As of June 30, 2026, loans held for investment (“HFI”) were $2.26 billion, up slightly from $2.25 billion as of March 31, 2026. In the second quarter of 2026, new loan originations and construction commitment fundings exceeded payments and payoffs.
  • In the second quarter of 2026, nonperforming assets (“NPA(s)”) decreased $1.6 million, or 38.3%, to $2.6 million, or 0.08% of assets, as of June 30, 2026. This improvement was due to the successful resolution of problem loans, which resulted in the receipt of $180,000 of related interest income and collection expense reimbursements.
  • We paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per common share in the second quarter of 2026.
  • The 2026 stock repurchase program authorizes us to purchase up to $10.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. There was no stock repurchase activity in the first half of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the 2026 stock repurchase program had $10.0 million of available capacity.
  • We continued to implement our organic expansion plan with the following projects:
    • In the Northwest market, we completed our relocation projects. In May 2026, we relocated our Northwest market leadership and lenders to our newly constructed Shreveport Commercial and Private Banking Loan and Deposit Production Office, which is adjacent to our East Kings banking center. We also relocated the Market Street banking center, serving our retail customers, to the nearby American Tower building, which has a more efficient cost structure.
    • In the New Orleans market, we recently completed remodeling a portion of the ground floor of the Energy Centre Building on Poydras Street. On July 20, 2026, we relocated the Baronne Street retail banking center and the New Orleans market leadership and lenders to this updated, convenient, and visible location.
    • In the Acadiana market, construction is in process on our second full-service banking center in this market, located on Camellia Boulevard in Lafayette, Louisiana. We expect this location to open early in 2027.
  • In May 2026, there were changes to the boards of directors of the Company and the Bank. Founding board member Kirk D. Cooper retired, and A. Peyton Bush, IV and R. Chance DeWitt, M.D. were appointed as new directors of both the Company and the Bank.
  • In June 2026, RRBI was added to the State Street SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (ticker: “KRE”) as part of its quarterly fund rebalance.

Blake Chatelain, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The second quarter of 2026 was one of solid, consistent performance driven by net interest margin expansion and a consistent balance sheet. As expected, net income and EPS in the second quarter of 2026 were slightly lower than the prior quarter, which had benefited from periodic rebates and refunds from vendors.

“We are pleased with the 10 bp expansion to the net interest margin FTE to 3.61% as we repriced loans at higher yields and had a lower cost of deposits. Our balance sheet is well positioned for a ‘higher for longer’ interest rate environment, though the interest rate outlook remains challenging to predict due to geopolitical tensions and uncertainty regarding energy prices. We are encouraged to see Chairman Warsh, the new chair of the Federal Reserve, commit to bring inflation under control, as inflation and high costs continue to be a burden for families and businesses.

“In the second quarter of 2026, loan growth was partially offset by loan payoffs with the sale of businesses, along with large commercial real estate projects transitioning to permanent financing in the secondary market. Based on our current loan pipeline activity and levels, we anticipate higher loan growth in the second half of 2026.

“We have been very busy with our organic expansion plan. In May 2026, we completed the Northwest market relocation projects. Our new Northwest market loan and deposit production office is conveniently located next to our East Kings banking center, and is more accessible for our customers and efficient for our employees. In July 2026, in the New Orleans market, we were pleased to relocate our leadership, lending, and banking center teams together into the Energy Centre Building. This consolidation will allow us to improve our customer service by providing all banking services from one location.

“I want to thank Kirk Cooper, a founding board member, for serving as a director and congratulate him on his retirement. Over the past 27 years, Kirk has served as an insightful and dedicated leader, providing guidance and support to the Company. On behalf of the entire board and management, we wish him the very best in retirement. We welcome Peyton Bush and Dr. Chance DeWitt to the boards and look forward to their future guidance and involvement. Peyton is a lifelong resident of New Orleans and has extensive financial knowledge and expertise. Chance is originally from Alexandria and now lives and practices medicine in Lafayette.

“As we enter the second half of 2026, we are focused on expanding the Red River Bank banking center network and team, evaluating expansion opportunities, providing personalized banking services to our customers, and welcoming new banking relationships. We are well positioned to provide solid profitability and returns for our shareholders.”

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin FTE

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2026 was $29.0 million, which was $563,000, or 2.0%, higher than the first quarter of 2026 and benefited from one more accrual day. Net interest margin FTE was 3.61% for the second quarter of 2026, which was 10 bps higher than the prior quarter. These improvements were primarily driven by higher loan yields and a lower cost of deposits. Interest income on loans increased $689,000 due to higher loan yields, and included $98,000 of additional interest income resulting from the successful resolution of nonaccrual loans in the second quarter. For the second quarter of 2026, the average rate on new and renewed loans was 6.38%. Interest expense decreased by $385,000 primarily due to lower average interest-bearing deposit balances, which resulted in a 4 bp decrease in the cost of deposits.

In the second half of 2025, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) reduced the federal funds rate by 75 bps, resulting in a range of 3.50%-3.75%, which remained throughout the first half of 2026. Due to uncertainty regarding the forecasted interest rate environment, we are modeling a consistent federal funds range for the second half of 2026. During the remainder of 2026, we project $157.4 million of fixed rate loans at 5.91% to mature, which we expect to redeploy into loans with slightly higher rates. We have $489.1 million of floating rate loans at 6.14%, which we expect to remain at a consistent rate. We also expect to receive $56.8 million in securities cash flows at 3.69%, for which we are currently evaluating reinvestment options as we consider balance sheet management strategies. We project $449.6 million in time deposits at 3.44% to mature, with the opportunity to reprice slightly lower. Depending on balance sheet activity and interest rate competition, we expect net interest income and net interest margin FTE to increase slightly in the second half of 2026.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $205,000, or 4.5%, from the previous quarter.

Mortgage loan income was $928,000 for the second quarter of 2026, up $323,000, or 53.4%, from the previous quarter due to increased purchase activity.

Debit card income, net, was $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $151,000, or 16.5%, from the previous quarter. This increase was mainly due to higher debit card activity and receipt of a $63,000 periodic refund from our debit card provider in the second quarter of 2026.

The Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) partnerships reported a loss of $291,000 in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a loss of $105,000 in the previous quarter. These losses were mainly due to fund value adjustments as an SBIC fund continues its wind-down phase. We expect SBIC income or loss to fluctuate in future quarters.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses totaled $18.3 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $1.0 million, or 6.0%, from the previous quarter.

Data processing expense totaled $758,000 for the second quarter of 2026, up $381,000, or 101.1%, from the previous quarter. The first quarter of 2026 benefited from the receipt of a $389,000 periodic refund from our data processing center.

Personnel expenses totaled $10.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $194,000, or 1.8%, from the previous quarter. This increase was primarily due to annual raises effective April 2026 and an increase in headcount. As of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, we had 381 and 375 total employees, respectively.

Loan and deposit expenses totaled $242,000 for the second quarter of 2026, up $139,000, or 135.0%, from the previous quarter. The second quarter of 2026 benefited from reimbursement of $82,000 of collection expenses due to the successful resolution of nonaccrual loans. The first quarter of 2026 benefited from receipt of a $201,000 negotiated, variable rebate from a vendor.

Occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $51,000, or 2.7%, from the previous quarter. This increase was primarily due to $78,000 of nonrecurring expenses related to our newly constructed Shreveport Commercial and Private Banking Loan and Deposit Production Office, as well as the relocation of a banking center, both in the Northwest market.

Loans

Loans HFI were $2.26 billion as of June 30, 2026 and $2.25 billion as of March 31, 2026. In the second quarter of 2026, new loan originations and construction commitment fundings exceeded payments and payoffs. As of June 30, 2026, we had $93.5 million of unfunded construction loan commitments, which we expect to fund over time.

The $11.2 million, or 3.0%, increase in stockholders’ equity during the second quarter of 2026 was attributable to $11.8 million of net income, a $964,000, net of tax, market adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss related to securities, and $144,000 of stock compensation, partially offset by $1.6 million in cash dividends related to a $0.25 per share cash dividend that we paid on June 18, 2026.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. Certain financial measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance are discussed as supplemental non-GAAP performance measures. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules, we classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the U.S.

Management and the board of directors review tangible common equity, realized common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share, realized book value per share, and tangible common equity to tangible assets as part of managing operating performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that are discussed may differ from that of other companies’ reporting measures with similar names. It is important to understand how other banking organizations calculate and name their financial measures similar to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed by us when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included within the following financial statement tables.
