Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. reported second-quarter 2026 net earnings of $2.3 million, or $0.66 per share, up from $1.8 million, or $0.52 per share, in second quarter 2025. Net earnings for the first six months of 2026 were $4.5 million, or $1.29 per share.

Tax-equivalent net interest income rose to $8.0 million, with net interest margin improving to 3.33% from 3.18% a year earlier, driven by higher yields on earning assets and a more favorable asset mix, and aided by a lower cost of interest-bearing deposits. Average loans were approximately $582.3 million.

Asset quality remained strong, with nonperforming assets of $0.1 million, or 0.01% of total assets, and annualized net recoveries of $21 thousand. The allowance for credit losses was $6.6 million, or 1.14% of total loans, after a $(248) thousand negative provision influenced by CECL refinements and early loan payoffs.

Total assets were $1.1 billion and deposits $988.3 million at June 30, 2026, both higher than a year earlier, while stockholders’ equity was $93.9 million, or $26.91 per share. The company recorded a $0.4 million loss contingency accrual, paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share, and the bank’s regulatory capital ratios were well above “well capitalized” minimums.

Positive

  • Earnings and EPS grew strongly, with Q2 2026 EPS at $0.66 versus $0.52 a year earlier, a 27% increase, and net earnings rising to $2.3 million; first-half 2026 net earnings were $4.5 million versus $3.4 million.
  • Net interest margin improved to 3.33% in Q2 2026 from 3.18% in Q2 2025, supported by higher yields on earning assets, a more favorable asset mix, and a lower cost of interest-bearing deposits.
  • Asset quality metrics were very strong, with nonperforming assets at $0.1 million, only 0.01% of total assets, nonperforming loans at 0.01% of total loans, and net recoveries recorded in the quarter.

Negative

  • Noninterest expenses increased to $6.1 million in Q2 2026 from $5.7 million a year earlier, primarily due to a $0.4 million loss contingency accrual, for which no insurance recovery was recognized in the quarter.

Filing Explained

The filing revises non-GAAP presentation while no insurance recovery is recognized; reciprocal deposits increased balance-sheet size at June 30.

The July 28 8-K reports the completed second quarter and June 30 balance sheet. It identifies $82.3 million of reciprocal deposits retained on balance sheet, contributing to $988.3 million of deposits and a 8.65% equity-to-assets ratio.

As a Form 8-K, this report communicates a specified material event rather than creating a new security or financing. The release revised the presentation of tax-equivalent net interest income, net interest margin, and efficiency-ratio data for comparability; it says the changes did not affect GAAP net interest income.

The $0.4 million loss-contingency accrual remains included in second-quarter expense. The company notified its insurer and is evaluating coverage, but no insurance recovery was recognized in these results.

The specific follow-up item is whether a later filing recognizes an insurance recovery or provides an updated status for the accrued loss contingency.

net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin (tax-equivalent) was 3.33% in the second quarter of 2026"
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.
allowance for credit losses financial
"the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $6.6 million or 1.14% of total loans"
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.
reciprocal deposits financial
"The Company had $82.3 million of reciprocal deposits on its balance sheet"
Reciprocal deposits are a way banks swap large customer funds among a network of banks so each portion stays within the government's insurance limit; from the depositor’s view it lets one large account be protected as if it were many small insured accounts. For investors, reciprocal deposits matter because they provide a low-cost, stable source of insured funding for banks and can affect a bank’s liquidity, perceived safety and reliance on wholesale or volatile funding sources.
efficiency ratio financial
"the efficiency ratio is a common measure that facilitates comparability"
A measure of how much a company spends to produce each dollar of revenue, usually shown as operating expenses divided by revenue and expressed as a percentage. Think of it as a household’s budget: a lower percentage means more of each dollar earned stays as profit, while a higher number means costs are eating into returns. Investors use it to judge cost control and compare how efficiently companies turn revenue into earnings, especially in banks and financial firms.
Current expected credit losses (“CECL”) financial
"a new loan segment within its CECL calculation for municipal loans"
bank owned life insurance financial
"increase from the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to an increase in bank owned life insurance income"
Bank owned life insurance is a type of life insurance a bank buys on the lives of its employees so the bank, rather than the employee’s family, receives the payout when a covered person dies. It acts like a long-term asset that pays income and can help cover costs such as employee benefits or unexpected losses; investors watch it because the holding affects a bank’s reported earnings, cash flow stability, and capital position much like a conservative investment portfolio would.

Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Net Earnings

Second Quarter 2026 vs. Second Quarter 2025 Highlights:

 

   

Earnings per share increased 27%

 

   

Net interest income (tax-equivalent) increased 8%

 

   

Net interest margin (tax-equivalent) increased 15 basis points to 3.33%

 

   

Negative provision for credit losses of $248 thousand, compared to a charge for provision for credit losses of $113 thousand in 2Q 2025

 

   

Return on assets (annualized) improved to 0.90%, compared to 0.74% in 2Q 2025

 

   

Nonperforming assets decreased to 0.01% of total assets

AUBURN, Alabama – Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (Nasdaq: AUBN) reported net earnings of $2.3 million, or $0.66 per share, for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $2.2 million, or $0.63 per share, for the first quarter of 2026, and $1.8 million, or $0.52 per share, for the second quarter of 2025. Net earnings were $4.5 million, or $1.29 per share, for the first six months of 2026, compared to $3.4 million, or $0.96 per share, for the first six months of 2025.

“Our second quarter results reflect strong revenue growth, improved profitability, and continued expansion of our net interest margin,” said David A. Hedges, President and CEO. “Earnings per share increased 27% compared to the second quarter of 2025, and our asset quality, capital, and liquidity remain strong,” continued Mr. Hedges.

Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2026, and $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2025. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, the increase was primarily due to improvements in our net interest margin. Compared to the second quarter of 2025, the increase was due to both growth in average interest-earning assets and improvements in our net interest margin.

Net interest margin (tax-equivalent) was 3.33% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 3.28% in the first quarter of 2026 and 3.18% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in net interest margin was primarily due to higher yields on earning assets and a more favorable asset mix. Compared to the second quarter of 2025, the increase also benefited from a lower cost of interest-bearing deposits. Average loans were approximately $582.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $577.5 million in the first quarter of 2026, and $559.8 million in the second quarter of 2025.

Nonperforming assets were $0.1 million, or 0.01% of total assets, at both June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, compared to $0.3 million, or 0.03% of total assets at June 30, 2025.

Net recoveries were $21 thousand, or (0.01%) of average loans on an annualized basis for the second quarter of 2026, compared to net charge-offs of $402 thousand, or 0.28% of average loans on an annualized basis for the first quarter of 2026, and net recoveries of $48 thousand, or (0.03%) of average loans on an annualized basis for the second quarter of 2025. Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2026 were primarily due to one individually evaluated nonperforming loan that was fully charged-off.

At June 30, 2026, the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $6.6 million or 1.14% of total loans, compared to $6.8 million, or 1.16% of total loans at March 31, 2026, and $7.0 million, or 1.24% of total loans at June 30, 2025. The decrease from March 31, 2026 was primarily related to early payoffs in the loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2026. The decrease from June 30, 2025 was primarily due to refinements in the Company’s calculation of current expected credit losses (“CECL”). During the first quarter of 2026, the Company established a new loan segment within its CECL calculation for municipal loans, which reduced the allowance for credit losses due to lower expected credit costs associated with these loans. Prior to this change, municipal loans were included in the commercial and industrial loan segment for CECL.

The Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $(248) thousand in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a negative provision for credit losses of $(76) thousand in the first quarter of 2026, and a charge to provision for credit losses of $113 thousand in the second quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses is affected by changes in overall balance and composition of our loan portfolio and unfunded commitments, our internal assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio, our expectations about future economic conditions, and net charge-offs.

Noninterest income was $0.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, largely unchanged from the first quarter of 2026, compared to $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase from the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to an increase in bank owned life insurance income from non-taxable death benefits received during the second quarter of 2026.

Noninterest expense was $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $5.9 million for the first quarter of 2026 and $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase from both periods was primarily due to a $0.4 million loss contingency accrual recorded in other noninterest expense, partially offset in the linked-quarter comparison by lower salaries and benefits and professional fees expense. The Company has notified its insurance carrier and is evaluating potential coverage, but no insurance recovery has been recognized in the second quarter 2026 results.

The provision for income tax expense was $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2026, unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2026 and $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase from the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the level of pre-tax earnings.

The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 21.00%, compared to 21.53% for the first quarter of 2026 and 20.92% for the second quarter of 2025. The Company’s effective income tax rate is principally affected by tax-exempt earnings from the Company’s investments in municipal securities and loans, bank-owned life insurance, and New Markets Tax Credits.

Total assets were $1.1 billion at June 30, 2026, compared to $1.0 billion at both March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025. Total deposits were $988.3 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $931.1 million at March 31, 2026, and $939.9 million at June 30, 2025. The increase compared to March 31, 2026 was primarily due to fluctuations in reciprocal customer deposits retained on balance sheet. The Company had $82.3 million of reciprocal deposits on its balance sheet at June 30, 2026, compared to $19.9 million at March 31, 2026. Compared to June 30, 2025, total deposits increased primarily due to growth in money market and interest checking account balances, partially offset by lower noninterest-bearing demand deposits.

At June 30, 2026, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was $93.9 million, or $26.91 per share, compared to $93.1 million, or $26.62 per share, at March 31, 2026 and $86.1 million, or $24.64 per share, at June 30, 2025. The Company’s equity-to-assets ratio was 8.65% at June 30, 2026, compared to 9.06% at March 31, 2026 and 8.36% at June 30, 2025. The decrease in the equity-to-assets ratio from March 31, 2026 was due to balance sheet growth from retaining all reciprocal deposits on balance sheet at June 30, 2026. All of the Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale. Therefore, any changes in the fair value of the Company’s securities portfolio are reflected in total equity, net of tax, under generally accepted accounting principles, but do not affect our capital for regulatory purposes.

The Company paid cash dividends of $0.27 per share in the second quarter of 2026. At June 30, 2026, the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios were well above the minimum amounts required to be “well capitalized” under current regulatory standards.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The attached financial highlights include certain designated net interest income amounts presented on a tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tax-equivalent net interest income is used in the calculation of our net interest margin and efficiency ratio. In the first quarter of 2026, we changed the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis to account for tax-exempt interest income on municipal loans. Also, we reclassified average net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities to average other assets so that average total securities are presented on an amortized cost basis in our calculation of net interest margin. Prior period amounts, including the presentation and calculation of our net interest margin and efficiency ratio, have been revised herein to conform with the current period presentation. These changes had no effect on the presentation of GAAP net interest income in current or prior periods.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis provides comparability of net interest income from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and facilitates comparability within the industry. Similarly, the efficiency ratio is a common measure that facilitates comparability with other financial institutions. Although the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. Along with the attached financial highlights, the Company provides reconciliations between the GAAP financial measures and these non-GAAP financial measures.

In the first quarter of 2026, we changed the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis to account for tax-exempt interest income on municipal loans. Also, we reclassified average net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities to average other assets so that average total securities are presented on an amortized cost basis in our calculation of net interest margin. Prior period amounts, including the presentation and calculation of our net interest margin, have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

Loans on nonaccrual status have been included in the computation of average balances.

(3)

Reflects tax-equivalent adjustments, using the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%, in adjusting interest on tax-exempt loans and securities to a tax-equivalent basis.

Includes average net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale of $(26.2), $(25.9), and $(33.8) million for the quarters ended June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026, and June 30, 2025, respectively.
