Recent earnings releases have consistently driven positive next-day moves, suggesting the stock often reacts favorably to financial updates.
Over the last five earnings-related announcements, Timberland Bancorp reported steady net income and EPS growth, expanding net interest margins, and multiple dividend increases. Credit quality remained solid with low non-performing asset ratios, while assets, loans, and deposits generally trended higher. Share repurchases and new repurchase authorizations complemented the dividend story. These results position the current Q1 FY2026 report—featuring higher EPS, stronger ROA/ROE and another dividend raise—as a continuation of that constructive trajectory.
Historical Comparison
In the past year, five earnings releases saw an average move of 3.41%, all positive. Today’s -2.05% reaction contrasts with that pattern, suggesting a more cautious read of otherwise strong results.
Earnings releases over the last five quarters show rising EPS, expanding net interest margins, dividend increases, and generally improving returns on assets and equity.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights higher quarterly net income and EPS, stronger 3.85% net interest margin, solid 1.60% ROA and 12.33% ROE, and a 4% dividend increase to $0.29. Credit quality remained firm with a 0.23% NPA ratio and stable loan performance. Compared with prior earnings releases that featured similar trends of margin expansion and dividend growth, investors may watch future updates on loan growth, funding mix, and operating efficiency to gauge durability.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Timberland believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company’s financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP results as reported.
Financial measures that exclude intangible assets are non-GAAP measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of capital adequacy, Timberland provides non-GAAP financial measures for tangible common equity, along with the GAAP measure. Tangible common equity is calculated as shareholders’ equity less goodwill and CDI. In addition, tangible assets equal total assets less goodwill and CDI.
The following table provides a reconciliation of ending shareholders’ equity (GAAP) to ending tangible shareholders’ equity (non-GAAP) and ending total assets (GAAP) to ending tangible assets (non-GAAP).
