Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Oak Valley Bancorp reported Q2 2026 results and declared a cash dividend. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, net income was $5,114,000, or $0.61 per diluted share, down from $5,309,000 in Q1 2026 and $5,588,000 a year earlier.

Management attributes the decrease mainly to higher non-interest expense and lower non-interest income, partly offset by higher net interest income and a lower credit loss provision. Net interest income was $18,944,000 and net interest margin was 4.15%, supported by loan growth of $18,264,000 during the quarter and $55,859,000 over the prior twelve months.

Total assets were $2.00 billion, gross loans $1.17 billion and deposits $1.76 billion at June 30, 2026, with cash and equivalents of $194,803,000. Non-performing assets were $2,631,000, or 0.13% of total assets, after a $1,735,000 charge-off and transfer of $2,581,000 to OREO on a collateral-dependent loan. The Board declared a $0.375 per share dividend, payable August 14, 2026 to shareholders of record on August 3, 2026, totaling approximately $3,155,000.

net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was 4.15%"
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.
non-interest income financial
"Non-interest income was $1,665,000 for the three-months ended June 30, 2026"
Non-interest income is the money a bank or financial company earns from activities other than charging interest on loans, such as service fees, account charges, trading gains, and income from managing client investments. For investors, it matters because it diversifies a firm’s revenue stream—like a store that sells both products and offers repair services—making profits less tied to lending rates and helping stability when interest-driven income falls.
non-performing assets financial
"Non-performing assets (NPA) totaled $2,631,000 as of June 30, 2026"
Loans or other credit exposures that are not producing expected income because borrowers have stopped making scheduled payments for a significant period (commonly around 90 days). Think of it like a business lending money that has gone quiet — the cash flow stops while the lender still carries the debt on its books. High levels of non-performing assets matter to investors because they reduce a lender’s earnings, tie up capital that could be used for growth, and signal higher risk of future losses.
allowance for credit losses financial
"The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of gross loans decreased to 0.96%"
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.
CECL financial
"within our current expected credit loss (“CECL”) risk model"
An accounting standard that requires banks and other lenders to estimate and record expected credit losses for loans and similar financial assets up front, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. It matters to investors because it changes how much a firm must set aside as a loss reserve, which directly affects reported profits, capital levels and perceived financial strength—think of it as stocking a reserve for future bad loans before the rain starts.

OAK VALLEY BANCORP REPORTS 2nd QUARTER RESULTS AND ANNOUNCES CASH DIVIDEND

 

OAKDALE, CA - Oak Valley Bancorp (NASDAQ: OVLY) (the "Company"), the bank holding company for Oak Valley Community Bank and their Eastern Sierra Community Bank division, recently reported unaudited consolidated financial results. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, consolidated net income was $5,114,000, or $0.61 per diluted share (EPS), as compared to $5,309,000, or $0.64 EPS, for the prior quarter and $5,588,000, or $0.67 EPS, for the same period a year ago. Consolidated net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $10,423,000, or $1.25 EPS, compared to $10,885,000 or $1.31 EPS for the same period of 2025.

 

The decrease in second quarter net income compared to the prior periods was primarily the result of an increase in non-interest expense and lower non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in net interest income and a lower provision for credit losses. The year-to-date decrease compared to 2025 was driven by higher non-interest expense, partially offset by increases in net interest income and non-interest income.

 

Net interest income for the three-months ended June 30, 2026 was $18,944,000, compared to $18,824,000 in the prior quarter, and $18,154,000 in the same period a year ago. The increase in net interest income over the prior periods is attributed to loan growth, and an increase in the loan yield. Average earning assets grew at a pace of 4.0% for the second quarter of 2026, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The ending balance of gross loans grew by $18,264,000 during the second quarter and $55,859,000 over the prior twelve months. Net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was 4.15%, compared to 4.12% for the prior quarter and 4.11% for the same period last year, related to the growth and yield trends stated above.

 

Non-interest income was $1,665,000 for the three-months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,952,000 for the prior quarter and $1,703,000 for the same period last year. The decrease over the prior periods was mainly the result of a special dividend of $181,000 received from the Federal Home Loan Bank recorded during the prior quarter and due to fair value changes in a limited partnership investment.

 

Non-interest expense totaled $14,157,000 for the three-months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $13,506,000 in the prior quarter and $12,443,000 in the same quarter a year ago. The increases compared to prior periods were primarily due to staffing expenses and general operating costs related to supporting the Company's growth and expanded branch network.

 


 

Total assets were $2.00 billion at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $8,721,000 from March 31, 2026 and an increase of $80,669,000 over June 30, 2025. Gross loans were $1.17 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $18,264,000 over March 31, 2026 and $55,859,000 over June 30, 2025. The Company's total deposits were $1.76 billion as of June 30, 2026, a decrease of $17,445,000 from March 31, 2026 and an increase of $52,310,000 over June 30, 2025. Our liquidity remains strong, as evidenced by $194,803,000 in cash and cash equivalent balances as of June 30, 2026.

 

"We are pleased with the continued expansion of our customer base. Our second quarter results reflect loan growth, disciplined balance sheet management, and the benefit of a steady net interest margin," stated Rick McCarty, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our team continues to manage the business with a long-term, relationship-focused approach that supports our clients, communities, and shareholders."

 

Non-performing assets (NPA) totaled $2,631,000 as of June 30, 2026, compared to $4,574,000 at March 31, 2026 and no NPA at June 30, 2025. The decrease compared to March 31, 2026 is due to a collateral-dependent loan that was placed on non-accrual status in December 2025, at which time the loan was individually evaluated for impairment and a specific reserve was established. During the second quarter of 2026, a charge-off of $1,735,000 was recorded on the same loan and the remaining $2,581,000 was transferred to OREO. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $21,000 during the second quarter as prescribed by the pooled loan calculation which considers macro-economic conditions and other credit-related factors within our current expected credit loss (“CECL”) risk model. Non-performing assets were 0.13% of total assets at June 30, 2026, compared to 0.23% at March 31, 2026. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of gross loans decreased to 0.96% at June 30, 2026, compared to 1.13% at March 31, 2026 and 1.03% at June 30, 2025, as a result of the $1,735,000 loan charge-off during the second quarter of 2026.

 

The Board of Directors of Oak Valley Bancorp at their July 21, 2026, meeting declared the payment of a cash dividend of $0.375 per share of common stock to its shareholders of record at the close of business on August 3, 2026. The payment date will be August 14, 2026 and will amount to approximately $3,155,000. This is the second dividend payment made by the Company in 2026.

 

Oak Valley Bancorp operates Oak Valley Community Bank & their Eastern Sierra Community Bank division, through which it offers a variety of loan and deposit products to individuals and small businesses. They currently operate through 19 conveniently located branches: Oakdale, Turlock, Stockton, Patterson, Ripon, Escalon, Manteca, Tracy, Sacramento, Roseville, Lodi, two branches in Sonora, three branches in Modesto, and three branches in the Eastern Sierra division which includes Bridgeport, Mammoth Lakes, and Bishop.
