FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., Oct. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- White River Bancshares Company (OTCQX: WRIV) (the "Company"), the holding company for Signature Bank of Arkansas (the "Bank"), today reported net income increased to $3.54 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.74 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024. The Company reported net income of $3.30 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, for the prior quarter. In the first nine months of 2025, net income increased to $9.47 million, or $3.85 per diluted share, compared to $5.10 million, or $2.28 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2024.

"Our third-quarter earnings are a direct reflection of the strength of our bank's culture," said Gary Head, Chairman and CEO. "We're demonstrating what's possible when purpose-driven people come together to serve with integrity, build trust, and stay focused on long-term value - for both our customers and our shareholders. At the core of our culture is a deep commitment to building real relationships and a passion for truly serving our customers. Every day, we're doing the work it takes to preserve the traditions of community banking. Our mission has always been to truly know our customers and anticipate their needs, because when our customers succeed, we succeed."
"Our deposit base remains strong and continues to grow, and I am proud of how our team has embraced the challenge of building a low-cost deposit franchise," said Scott Sandlin, Chief Strategy Officer. "Deposit gathering isn't just a strategic priority-it's becoming embedded in our banking mindset. It's a regular part of our conversations across the organization, and there's a shared understanding of how essential a strong deposit base is to supporting loan growth and strengthening customer relationships. That focus is paying off, with total deposits increasing 2.9% during the third quarter and 24.1% year-over-year. In today's community banking landscape, success depends on both relationships and deposits, and that's exactly where we're directing our efforts."

About the Region
White River Bancshares Company is headquartered in thriving Northwest Arkansas in the Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers MSA. The region is home to the corporate headquarters for Walmart Stores Inc, Sam's Club, Tyson Foods, Simmons Foods, and J.B. Hunt Transport. Hundreds of other market-leading companies including Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Coca-Cola and Rubbermaid maintain offices in the region in order to maintain their relationships with the locally based Fortune 500 companies. Northwest Arkansas is also home to the state's flagship public educational institution, The University of Arkansas, and its Sam M. Walton College of Business. The region has seen significant growth in its medical and arts infrastructures with the continued expansion of Washington Regional Medical System, Northwest Medical System, Mercy Health System of Northwest Arkansas and Arkansas Children's Hospital Northwest. Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Walton Arts Center have led the expansion of the arts. Northwest Arkansas has been repeatedly recognized in recent years as one of the best places to live in the country and remains one of the nation's fastest-growing regions. In May 2024, Walmart issued a relocation mandate requiring most of its remote employees, as well as most of its office workers in Dallas, Atlanta and Toronto to move to, in most cases, Bentonville by November 1, 2024. While the company did not disclose a number, Bloomberg reported that the number of Walmart employees who would be moving to Bentonville would be in the thousands. Walmart is making a major investment in its hometown facilities, building a new, 350-acre headquarters campus, including walking and biking trails, a hotel, fitness facilities and a large childcare center.
The Company has expanded eastward, with new markets in Jonesboro and Harrison. Jonesboro, located in Craighead County, is a city located on Crowley's Ridge in the northeastern corner of Arkansas. It is the home of Arkansas State University and the cultural and economic center of Northeast Arkansas. Jonesboro also houses the region's hospital network. U.S. Steel Corp. announced that it would locate a new $3 billion steel factory in Northeast Arkansas in Osceola, a move expected to create 900 jobs with an average pay over $100,000 annually, making it the largest capital investment project in Arkansas history. Harrison sits below Branson, Missouri, which is a family tourist destination and outdoor recreation, and is well known as an entertainment destination.
The Company currently operates out of ten locations; three in Washington County; three in Benton County; two in Monroe County; one in Boone County; and one in Craighead County.
The housing market in Washington and Benton counties remains robust. According to the Northwest Arkansas Board of Realtors, the average home in Washington County sold for $441,000 in August 2025, with an average of 47 days on the market. For Benton County, the average house sold for $485,000, with an average of 40 days on the market.
