Source: Business Wire

Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE: NPB) ("Northpointe" or the "Company"), holding company for Northpointe Bank, today reported net income to common stockholders of $18.4 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2025. This compares to $20.1 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025, and $8.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company reported net income to common stockholders of $71.6 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, compared to $47.2 million, or $1.83 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

"In our first year as a public company, we delivered robust balance sheet growth and consistent earnings, driven by sustained momentum and strengthened results across each of our key business lines," remarked Chuck Williams, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our improved financial performance was anchored by the success of the Mortgage Purchase Program business, where we increased balances by $1.7 billion over the prior year and grew total loans funded to $36.9 billion for 2025. In the residential lending channel, mortgage originations increased by 18% year-over-year, and all-in-one loan balances increased by 20% compared with 2024."

Net Interest Income

Net interest income before provision was $43.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $3.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. The linked quarter increase reflects a 4 basis point improvement in net interest margin and a $393.2 million increase in average interest-earning assets. As compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, net interest income before provision increased by $13.5 million, driven primarily by a 24 basis point improvement in net interest margin and a $1.61 billion increase in average interest-earning assets.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net interest income before provision was $150.7 million, an increase of $36.5 million compared to $114.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase reflects a 16 basis point improvement in net interest margin and a $1.17 billion increase in average interest-earning assets.

Net interest margin was 2.51% for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of 4 basis points compared to 2.47% in the third quarter of 2025 and an increase of 24 basis points compared to 2.27% in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increases from both comparable periods was driven primarily by a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, consistent with the decrease in the federal funds rate in each period, which outpaced the decrease in the yield earned on interest-earning assets.

Average interest-earning assets at December 31, 2025 increased by $393.2 million from September 30, 2025 and by $1.61 billion compared to December 31, 2024. The increases from both comparable periods reflect the strong growth in MPP and AIO balances, partially offset by continued run-off in the remainder of the loan portfolio.

Provision (Benefit) for Credit Losses

The Company recorded a total provision (benefit) for credit losses (including both loans and unfunded commitments) of $608,000 in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to provision expense of $828,000 in the third quarter of 2025 and provision (benefit) of $446,000 in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company's quarterly provision (benefit) for credit losses reflects net loan charge-offs, along with factors such as loan growth, portfolio mix, reserves on individually evaluated loans, credit migration trends, and changes in the economic forecasts used in the credit models. The linked quarter decrease in total provision for credit losses was driven primarily by an improvement in the economic forecasts, partially offset by higher net loan charge-offs.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, total provision for credit losses was $2.1 million, an increase of $2.4 million compared to a provision (benefit) of $328,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was driven primarily by higher levels of net charge-offs.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income was $21.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $2.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2025 and an increase of $8.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, non-interest income was $91.0 million, an increase of $18.1 million compared to $72.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher net gain on sale of loans.

MPP fees were $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $613,000 compared to the third quarter of 2025 and an increase of $476,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The increases from both comparable periods reflect higher levels of funded loans, along with higher levels of participations, in the MPP business.

Loan servicing fees were $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $35,000 compared to the third quarter of 2025 and a decrease of $1.8 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The decreases from both comparable periods reflect changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") primarily attributable to the movement in market interest rates during the respective periods, partially offset by higher fees on servicing.

Net gain on sale of loans was $18.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $21.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 and $7.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Net gain on sale of loans includes the capitalization of new MSRs, gains or losses on the sale of portfolio loans, changes in fair value of loans, and gains on the sale of loans.

The net gain on sale of loans for the fourth quarter of 2025 included an increase of $1.7 million from the combined change in fair value of loans held for investment and LRA, which are both attributable to changes in market interest rates. Excluding these items (see Net Gain on Sale of Loans table below for a reconciliation), net gain on sale of loans was $16.6 million, down $877,000 on a comparative basis from the third quarter of 2025 and up $2.3 million on a comparative basis from the fourth quarter of 2024.

Other non-interest income was a net loss of $73,000 for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to income of $285,000 for the third quarter of 2025 and $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The linked quarter decrease was driven primarily by higher net losses on the sale of other real estate owned. The decrease from the prior year quarter was driven primarily by a $1.7 million gain from extinguishment of FHLB advances in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $33.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $581,000 compared to the third quarter of 2025 and an increase of $4.3 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, non-interest expense was $129.2 million, an increase of $14.6 million compared to $114.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher salaries and benefits expense, including higher bonus and incentive compensation, higher variable compensation on mortgage production and higher employee benefits.

Salaries and benefits expense was $23.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $1.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2025, driven primarily by lower bonus and incentive compensation. As compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, salaries and benefits expense increased by $4.2 million, driven primarily by higher bonus and incentive compensation (up $2.7 million), reflecting higher incentive compensation from the improvement in business activity over the same period and additional restricted stock expense from the initial public offering, as well as higher variable compensation on mortgage production (up $813,000).

Professional fees decreased by $188,000 on a linked quarter basis, and increased by $715,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase compared to the prior year quarter was driven primarily by higher ongoing customary public company compliance costs.

Other taxes and insurance increased by $611,000 on a linked quarter basis, and by $479,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The increases for both comparable periods was driven primarily by higher FDIC assessment expense resulting from the growth in assets and continued utilization of capital.

Taxes

Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $8.3 million, compared to $7.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 and $3.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company's effective tax rate was 26.04% for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 24.00% for the third quarter of 2025 and 24.97% for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increases for both comparable periods was driven primarily by $0.5 million in additional income tax expense recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025 related to non-deductible tax rules for publicly traded companies.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, income tax expense was $27.0 million, with an effective tax rate of 24.44%, compared to $17.7 million, with an effective tax rate of 24.31%, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Total assets were $7.02 billion at December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $183.2 million compared to September 30, 2025 and an increase of $1.80 billion compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in total assets at December 31, 2025, compared to both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was driven primarily by an increase in total loans, particularly growth in MPP and AIO balances.

Gross loans held for investment were $6.02 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $54.3 million, or 4% annualized, compared to September 30, 2025 and an increase of $1.59 billion, or 36%, compared to December 31, 2024. The linked quarter increase was driven primarily by growth in MPP balances, which were up 7% annualized, and growth in AIO loans, which were up 18% annualized. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $36.8 million in the remainder of the loans held for investment portfolio. Loans held for sale totaled $309.2 million at December 31, 2025, compared to $259.8 million at September 30, 2025 and $217.1 million at December 31, 2024, and reflect the timing of closing saleable residential mortgage originations.

The Company continues to focus on growing its two main portfolios, AIO and MPP. Outside of these two portfolios, no other significant loans are being added to the loans held for investment portfolio. At December 31, 2025, virtually all of the loan portfolio was comprised of loans collateralized by residential property.

Total deposits were $4.87 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $100.0 million, or 8% annualized, compared to September 30, 2025 and an increase of $1.45 billion, or 42%, compared to December 31, 2024. The linked quarter increase was driven primarily by a $234.2 million increase in savings & money market deposits, which reflects the Company's ongoing deposit initiatives and completion of a new digital deposit relationship added during the fourth quarter of 2025. As compared to December 31, 2024, the increase was driven primarily by a higher level of brokered CDs, and growth in the Company's diversified digital deposit banking platform including two new deposit relationships added during 2025.

Total borrowings were $1.44 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $70.5 million compared to September 30, 2025 and an increase of $180.8 million compared to December 31, 2024. The increases for both comparable periods was driven primarily by additional FHLB advances taken out during the fourth quarter of 2025.

As noted above, the Company issued $70.0 million in aggregate principal amount of a new 7.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2035 late in the fourth quarter of 2025. These funds were used to redeem all remaining shares of the Company's existing 8.25% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Series A Preferred Stock.

Asset Quality

The Company’s allowance for credit losses was $10.4 million at December 31, 2025, $12.3 million at September 30, 2025 and $11.2 million at December 31, 2024. The allowance for credit losses represented 0.17% of loans held for investment at December 31, 2025, 0.21% of loans held for investment at September 30, 2025 and 0.25% of loans held for investment at December 31, 2024. The decrease in allowance for credit losses, compared to both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was driven primarily by an improvement in the economic forecasts used in the credit models, along with a continued improvement in the mix of loans within the held for investment portfolio. The majority of the growth in the loans held for investment portfolio has come from MPP or AIO balances, with continued run-off in Residential mortgage, Construction, and Other Consumer / Home Equity loans, which carry higher average loss rates. In total, Residential mortgage, Construction, and Other Consumer / Home Equity loans have decreased by $248.4 million from December 31, 2024.

Net charge-offs were $1.2 million, or 8 basis points annualized as a percentage of average loans, for the fourth quarter of 2025. This compares to $977,000, or 7 basis points annualized as a percentage of average loans, for the third quarter of 2025, and $260,000, or 6 basis points annualized as a percentage of average loans, for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increases in net charge-offs from both comparable periods were largely attributable to losses on several mortgage and construction loans.

A substantial portion of the Company's non-performing loans are wholly or partially guaranteed by the U.S. Government, so asset quality metrics within this earnings release are shown with and without these guaranteed loans. Non-performing assets were $92.7 million at December 31, 2025 ($64.4 million excluding guaranteed loans), $85.2 million at September 30, 2025 ($57.7 million excluding guaranteed loans) and $82.0 million at December 31, 2024 ($49.5 million excluding guaranteed loans). Non-performing assets represented 1.32% of total assets at December 31, 2025 (0.92% excluding guaranteed loans), 1.25% at September 30, 2025 (0.85% excluding guaranteed loans) and 1.57% at December 31, 2024 (0.95% excluding guaranteed loans).

Capital

At December 31, 2025, the estimated capital levels for the Company and its subsidiary bank, Northpointe Bank (the “Bank”), remained well in excess of the minimum amounts needed for capital adequacy purposes and the Bank’s capital levels met the necessary requirements to be considered "well-capitalized". The regulatory capital ratios as of December 31, 2025 are estimates, pending completion and filing of the Bank's regulatory reports.

Forward Looking Statements

Statements in this earnings release regarding future events and our expectations and beliefs about our future financial performance and financial condition, as well as trends in our business and markets, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and may be identified by references to a future period or periods by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “outlook,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” The forward-looking statements in this earnings release should not be relied on because they are based on current information and on assumptions that we make about future events and circumstances that are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond our control. As a result of those risks and uncertainties, and other factors, our actual financial results in the future could differ, possibly materially, from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this earnings release and could cause us to make changes to our future plans. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the impact of current and future economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry, including the effects of declines in the real estate market, tariffs or trade wars (including reduced consumer spending, lower economic growth or recession, reduced demand for U.S. exports, disruptions to supply chains, and decreased demand for other banking products and services), high unemployment rates, inflationary pressures, increasing insurance costs, elevated interest rates, including the impact of changes in interest rates on our financial projections, models and guidance and slowdowns in economic growth, as well as the financial stress on borrowers as a result of the foregoing; uncertain duration of trade conflicts; potential impacts of adverse developments in the banking and mortgage industries, including impacts on deposits, liquidity and the regulatory rules and regulations; risks arising from media coverage of the banking and mortgage industries; risks arising from perceived instability in the banking and mortgage sectors; changes in the interest rate environment, including changes to the federal funds rate, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s profitability; changes in prices, values and sales volumes of residential real estate; developments in our mortgage banking business, including loan modifications, general demand, and the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance; competition in our markets that may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing margins and net interest income; legislation or regulatory changes which could adversely affect the ability of the consolidated Company to conduct business combinations or new operations; changes in tax laws; significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities; the ability to keep pace with technological changes, including changes regarding maintaining cybersecurity and the impact of generative artificial intelligence; increased competition in the financial services industry, particularly from regional and national institutions; the impact of a failure in, or breach of, the Company's operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties with whom the Company does business, including as a result of cyber-attacks or an increase in the incidence or severity of fraud, illegal payments, security breaches or other illegal acts impacting the Company or the Company's customers; the effects of war or other conflicts; and adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of the Company’s participation in and execution of government programs, and legislative, regulatory or supervisory actions related to so?called “de?banking,” including any new prohibitions, requirements or enforcement priorities that could affect customer relationships, compliance obligations, or operational practices.

Therefore, the Company can give no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business and future financial performance are subject is contained in the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and in other documents that we file with the SEC from time to time, which are available on the SEC’s website, http://www.sec.gov . Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this earnings release or to make predictions based solely on historical financial performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements, express or implied, included in this earnings release are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release contains certain financial measures that are not measures recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The measures entitled tangible common equity, tangible book value, tangible assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets and return on average tangible common equity are not measures recognized under GAAP and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The most comparable GAAP measures to these measures are stockholders’ equity, book value per share, total assets, equity to assets and return on average equity, respectively.

The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however the Company acknowledges that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations. As such, these disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and these disclosures are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use.

The Company calculates tangible common equity as stockholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets (net of deferred tax liability ("DTL") and preferred stock. The Company calculates tangible book value ("TBV") per share as tangible common equity divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding at the end of the relevant period. The Company calculates tangible assets as total assets less intangible assets (net of DTL). The Company calculates tangible common equity/tangible assets as tangible common equity divided by tangible assets. The Company calculates return on average tangible common equity as annualized net income available to common stockholders divided by average tangible equity. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are outlined in the non-GAAP reconciliation table below.
