BISMARCK, N.D., Oct. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BNCCORP, INC. (BNC or the Company) (OTCQX Markets: BNCC), which operates community banking and wealth management businesses in North Dakota and Arizona, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Management Commentary

"Our third quarter results reflect the continued strength of our core banking franchise," said Daniel J. Collins, BNC's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Net income increased 14.7% from the third quarter of 2025. Net interest income grew 10.7% year-over-year, and our net interest margin of 3.83% was 10 basis points higher than a year ago and essentially unchanged from the second quarter, as higher loan yields and lower deposit costs more than offset lower yields on cash and securities.

"Loans held for investment grew $14.7 million, or 2.0%, and deposits increased $37.7 million during the quarter. We were pleased to see loan growth in the quarter despite an elevated level of payoffs and prepayments in an environment of rising costs and higher interest rates. Our asset quality remains sound and our capital ratios remain well above regulatory requirements.

"The proposed combination with OppFi, announced on April 29, 2026, is proceeding through the customary shareholder and regulatory processes. Our priorities during this period have not changed: serving our customers, supporting our communities and operating the bank with the discipline that produced this quarter's results. We remain confident in the overall quality of our loan portfolio, the strength of our balance sheet and our ability to navigate ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainties."

2026 Versus 2025 Third Quarter Comparison

The Company reported net income of $3.0 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $2.6 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2025. Excluding the impact of expenses associated with the merger transaction, the Company reported net income of $3.3 million, or $0.94 per diluted share.

Interest income increased $783 thousand, or 5.9%, to $14.1 million in the third quarter of 2026 from $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 driven by higher loan yields, a $4.1 million period-over-period increase in the average balance of loans held for investment and higher average balances of cash and cash equivalents. Those increases were partially offset by lower yields on cash and cash equivalents and a lower average balance of debt securities during the quarter. Average yield on interest-earning assets in the quarter decreased slightly to 5.51% from 5.62% in the third quarter of 2025.

Interest expense in the third quarter of 2026 was $4.3 million, a decrease of $162 thousand from the 2025 period. The cost of core deposits in the third quarter of 2026 decreased to 1.75% versus 1.94% in the third quarter of 2025. The average balance of deposits increased by $60.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 2.24% during the third quarter of 2026, compared to 2.49% in the same period of 2025.

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2026 was $9.8 million, an increase of $945 thousand, or 10.7%, from the third quarter of 2025. Net interest margin increased to 3.83% in the third quarter of 2026 compared to 3.73% reported in the prior year period.

Non-interest income during the third quarter of 2026 was $1.6 million, compared to $1.4 million in the 2025 third quarter. Bank charges and service fees were $16 thousand lower period-over-period primarily due to lower overdraft fees and letter of credit fees partially offset by higher interchange income. Wealth management revenues increased by $113 thousand, or 21.2%, over the prior year period as the Company has benefitted from the addition of new assets under administration and increases in the market value of financial assets year-over-year. Other income was $96 thousand higher than the prior year period as a result of valuation adjustments on deferred compensation, gains on sale of assets and higher SBIC revenue.

Non-interest expense during the third quarter of 2026 increased $743 thousand, or 11.2%, year-over-year, primarily due to a $495 thousand increase in professional services as the Company incurred $461 thousand of expenses in connection with the previously announced agreement to be acquired by OppFi Inc. Data processing fees increased $101 thousand. Inflationary factors over core banking services, card processing charges and higher IT subscriptions drove the largest increases. Occupancy expense increased $52 thousand primarily due to increased building repair and maintenance charges.

In the third quarter of 2026, income tax expense was $902 thousand, compared to $809 thousand in the third quarter of 2025. The Company's effective tax rate was 23.0% and 23.5% for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Tangible book value per common share on September 30, 2026 was $31.68 compared to $30.26 at December 31, 2025. The Company's tangible common equity capital ratio increased to 10.30% as of September 30, 2026, compared to 9.68% on December 31, 2025.

2026 Versus 2025 First Nine Months Comparison

The Company reported net income of $7.1 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $6.6 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2025. Excluding the impact of expenses associated with the merger transaction, the Company reported net income of $8.9 million, or $2.52 per diluted share.

Interest income increased $3.7 million, or 9.8%, to $41.6 million in the first nine months of 2026 from $37.9 million in the first nine months of 2025 driven by a $20.4 million period-over-period increase in the average balance of loans held for investment and higher balances of cash and cash equivalents. Those increases were partially offset by lower yields on cash and cash equivalents and a lower average balance and yields on debt securities during the current period. Average yield on interest-earning assets in the first nine months of 2026 was 5.47%, compared to 5.51% in the first nine months of 2025.

Interest expense in the first nine months of 2026 was $13.1 million, an increase of $391 thousand from the 2025 period. The cost of core deposits in the first nine months of 2026 decreased to 1.79% versus 1.89% in the first nine months of 2025.

Net interest income for the first nine months of 2026 was $28.5 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 13.2%, from the first nine months of 2025. Net interest margin was 3.75% in the 2026 nine-month period compared to 3.66% reported in the prior year period.

Non-interest income in the first nine months of 2026 was $4.5 million compared to $4.2 million in the 2025 first nine months. Bank charges and service fees were $42 thousand higher period-over-period primarily due to higher servicing income, interchange income, and letter of credit fees that were partially offset by lower non-use fees on lines of credit and a reduction in deposits held in one-way sell positions. Wealth management revenues increased by $267 thousand, or 17.3%, as the Company has benefited from the addition of new assets under administration and increases in the market value of financial assets year-over-year. Other income was higher than the prior year due to valuation adjustments on deferred compensation and higher SBIC and BOLI revenue that was partially offset by lower gains on sale of assets.

Non-interest expense during the first nine months of 2026 increased $2.9 million, or 14.2%, year-over-year, primarily due to a $2.7 million increase in professional services expense as the Company has incurred expenses primarily related to the previously announced agreement to be acquired by OppFi Inc. The Company also reported an increase of $289 thousand in data processing fees. Core banking services, card processing charges and higher IT subscriptions provided the largest increases. These increases were offset by a decrease in salary and employee benefits of $250 thousand, or 2.1% year-over-year. Merit-based and inflationary increases in salaries and employee benefits were offset by lower headcount.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, consolidated income tax expense was $2.1 million, compared to $2.0 million in the first nine months of 2025. The Company's effective tax rate was 23.0% and 23.5% for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Assets and Liabilities

Total assets were $1.08 billion at September 30, 2026 versus $1.10 billion at December 31, 2025. Total loans held for investment increased to $744.9 million on September 30, 2026 compared to $738.7 million on December 31, 2025. Debt securities decreased $21.9 million from year-end 2025, primarily due to normal maturities and amortization coupled with an increase in unrealized losses as a result of increases in long term interest rates, while cash and cash equivalent balances totaled $206.9 million on September 30, 2026 compared to $211.5 million on December 31, 2025.

Total deposits decreased $22.2 million, or 2.3%, to $949.6 million as of September 30, 2026, from a balance of $971.8 million on December 31, 2025. The Company remains committed to cultivating new deposit relationships and prioritizing liquidity.

The following table provides additional detail on the Company's total deposit relationships:

		As of
(In thousands)		September 30, 2026			December 31, 2025			September 30, 2025
Deposits:
Non-interest-bearing		$	178,423		$	177,618		$	178,027
Interest-bearing -
Savings, interest checking and money market			649,715			681,350			591,166
Time deposits			121,459			112,833			109,342
Total on balance sheet deposits			949,597			971,801			878,535
Off-balance sheet deposits (1)			-			-			20,478
Total available deposits		$	949,597		$	971,801		$	899,013

						(1)	The off-balance sheet deposits above do not include off-balance sheet time deposits that can be brought back on the balance sheet at various future maturity dates. As of September 30, 2026, the Company managed off-balance sheet time deposit balances of $260 thousand, compared to $250 thousand time deposit balances as of December 31, 2025 and $250 thousand time deposit balances as of September 30, 2025

The Company remains highly focused on meeting the needs of its customers and ensuring deposit rates reflect changing market conditions. The Company estimates that deposit insurance and other deposit protection programs secure approximately 70% of its customers' deposit balances. This fact, combined with the Company's strong balance sheet and management's sustained focus on fostering a relationship-focused culture, has allowed the Company to maintain a significant deposit base.

Trust assets under administration increased 11.0%, or $53.0 million, to $534.0 million at September 30, 2026, from $480.9 million at December 31, 2025. The Company has benefited from the addition of new assets under administration in 2026, and increases in the market value of financial assets under administration attributable to increases in the broader financial markets.

Asset Quality

The allowance for credit losses on loans was $8.6 million as of September 30, 2026, versus $10.3 million on December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of loans held for investment on September 30, 2026 decreased to 1.16% from 1.40% as of December 31, 2025. The decrease in the allowance to loans ratio was largely due to write-downs of specific problem credits during the first quarter of 2026 that had specific reserves as of year-end 2025.

Past due loans of 31-89 days decreased to $303 thousand as of September 30, 2026, compared to $664 thousand as of December 31, 2025. Nonperforming assets were $5.8 million on September 30, 2026, compared to $9.2 million on December 31, 2025. The ratio of nonperforming assets-to-total-assets was 0.54% at September 30, 2026 compared to 0.83% as of December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2026, $4.3 million, or 74%, of the $5.8 million in nonperforming assets were SBA loans supported by material government guarantees. Excluding loan balances covered by government guarantees, the Company's nonperforming assets-to-total-assets ratio was 0.21% on September 30, 2026.

The Company continues to monitor the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environment for possible impacts to its loan portfolio. As of September 30, 2026, classified loans increased to $7.7 million from $5.7 million as of December 31, 2025. During 2026, the Company experienced an increase in classified loans relating to two well collateralized commercial real estate properties. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $957 thousand and $5.4 million, respectively, of potentially problematic loans, which are risk-rated as "special mention."

BNC's loans held for investment are geographically concentrated in North Dakota and Arizona, comprising 53% and 25%, respectively, of the Company's total loans held for investment portfolio.

The North Dakota economy is influenced by the energy and agriculture industries. Changes in energy supply and demand, along with market sentiment have recently caused an increase in oil prices. Management continues to monitor the volatility in oil prices and the potential impact on the oil industry and ancillary services. Persistently low agricultural commodity prices have the potential to negatively impact the agricultural performance in North Dakota. Potential risks to North Dakota's energy and agriculture industries include the possibility of adverse national legislation, persistent inflation, potential effects of trade policy, and changes in economic conditions. Depending on the severity of their impact, these factors could present potential challenges to credit quality in North Dakota.

The Arizona economy continues to diversify but is still influenced by the leisure and travel industries. Positive trends in both industries have been noted, but an extended slowdown in these industries may negatively impact credit quality in Arizona. While the Company's portfolio includes various sized loans spread over a large number of industry sectors, it has meaningful concentrations of loans to the hospitality and commercial real estate industries.

The following table approximates the Company's loan concentrations by industry:

Capital

Banks and bank holding companies operate under separate regulatory capital requirements. As of September 30, 2026, the Company's capital ratios exceeded all regulatory capital thresholds, including the capital conservation buffer.

A summary of the Company's and the Bank's capital ratios is presented below:

		September 30, 2026		December 31, 2025
BNCCORP, INC. (Consolidated)
Tier 1 leverage		12.61 %		12.40 %
Common equity tier 1 risk based capital		13.43 %		13.01 %
Tier 1 risk based capital		15.18 %		14.81 %
Total risk based capital		16.16 %		16.02 %
Tangible common equity		10.30 %		9.68 %
BNC National Bank
Tier 1 leverage		12.17 %		11.71 %
Common equity tier 1 risk based capital		14.65 %		13.98 %
Tier 1 risk based capital		14.65 %		13.98 %
Total risk based capital		15.64 %		15.19 %
Tangible common equity		11.34 %		10.47 %

The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio, which is generally a comparison of a bank's core equity capital to its total risk weighted assets, is a measure of the current risk profile of the Bank's asset base from a regulatory perspective. The Tier 1 leverage ratio, which is based on average assets, does not consider the mix of risk-weighted assets.

The Company regularly evaluates the sufficiency of its capital to ensure compliance with regulatory capital standards and to serve as a source of strength for the Bank. The Company manages capital by assessing the composition of capital and the amounts available for growth, risk, or other purposes.

The Company made an election at the adoption of BASEL III to exclude changes in accumulated other comprehensive income from the calculation of regulatory ratios.
