Old Second Reports Q1 Revenue of $93.7M, Beating Expectations
Reports Q1 revenue $93.7M, consensus $80.9M. Provision for credit losses of $9.5 million compared to $3.0 million. CEO Jim Eccher said "Old Second reported strong results in the first quarter of 2026 led by exceptional margin performance and disciplined operating efficiency. Tangible book value per share increased by 1.63% on a linked quarter basis despite the reduction to equity from our stock repurchases of $23.1 million, or 1.2 million shares, during the quarter. Nonperforming assets increased due to a few larger relationships, but we believe we are adequately reserved for any future losses with an Allowance for Credit Losses on loans to total loans of 1.39% and ACL to nonperforming loans of 95.53%. Credit deterioration in the first quarter largely resulted from one downtown Chicago office credit and one cash-flow-dependent commercial relationship. Otherwise results remain solid with first quarter return on average assets and return on average common equity of 1.51% and 11.43%, respectively. The tax equivalent net interest margin expanded to 5.14% and the efficiency ratio was a very healthy 52.40%. This strong bottom-line performance and a well-positioned balance sheet drove an increase in the tangible common equity capital ratio to 11.07% from 11.02% for the prior linked period. We are proud of our performance from both a bottom-line perspective and in positioning ourselves to deliver better results to our stockholders over the remainder of the year."
