Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. Announces 2025 Third Quarter Results
Reports highest level of profits since 2022
RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE American: BRBS), the holding company of Blue Ridge Bank, National Association ("Blue Ridge Bank" or the "Bank") and BRB Financial Group, Inc., today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $5.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and net income of $0.9 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2024.
For the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $6.5 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $13.4 million, or ($0.34) per diluted common share, for the same period of 2024.
A message from Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. President and CEO, G. William "Billy" Beale:
"Blue Ridge Bank's third quarter results are a good news story on many fronts. Before I address the numbers, I want to acknowledge the team that got us to this point and will return Blue Ridge to a prominent place in Virginia community banking. Without the tenacity, negotiation skills, attention to detail, and solid banking knowledge shown by the employees who have either joined us or quickly adapted to new leadership, these results would not have been possible.
"Most banks in transition report one-time financial events as the organization returns to normal operations. We had our share this quarter. We reported $3.0 million of fee income when our largest single out-of-market loan paid off and we recovered $0.8 million from a specialty finance loan that was charged off in 2023. By successfully fulfilling obligations to the buyers of our mortgage servicing rights in 2024, we received an additional $0.8 million in noninterest income. Partially offsetting these positive events, we showed increased consulting fees, as we completed a revenue enhancement engagement started in 2024. Legal expenses also were higher in the quarter. We expect both expense lines to return to lower levels in the fourth quarter.
"On an on-going basis, noninterest expenses reflect reduced Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance and audit fees, a sign of our improved regulatory position, and salary and benefit expenses and headcount were again down on a sequential quarter basis.
"Last quarter, I stated we were turning our focus to growth. While loans held for investment declined by $66 million in the third quarter, $33 million of the decline was due to the payoff of the single credit mentioned above. We have added talent to the commercial relationship team who, along with those already on board, have built a loan pipeline of more than $200 million as of September 30, 2025. Additional relationship managers will join us in fourth quarter. We are seeing deposit and loan relationship opportunities materialize as our larger competitors focus on larger deals.
"Early in the third quarter, the Company announced our board had approved an up to $15 million share repurchase program. This action reflects our strong capital position and our regulator's acknowledgment of the progress made by the Blue Ridge team over the last 18 months. I anticipate again reporting strong results for the fourth quarter in January 2026."
Sale of Monarch Mortgage
On March 27, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its mortgage division operating as Monarch Mortgage. The sale, which included the transfer of certain assets and leases to an unrelated mortgage company, resulted in a $0.2 million loss, reported in other noninterest income in the year-to-date 2025 period.
Q3 2025 Highlights
(Comparisons for Third Quarter 2025 are relative to Second Quarter 2025 unless otherwise noted.)
Net Income:
- Net income for the third quarter was $5.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share, for the prior quarter. The third quarter income before income taxes of $7.5 million included $3.0 million of loan fee income realized upon the payoff of a previously criticized out-of-market loan, while the prior quarter included $0.3 million of fee income from this loan. The loan fee income resulted from loan modifications in the first quarter of 2025 and was fully realized in the third quarter upon pay off. Also included in the prior quarter income before income taxes of $1.8 million was a benefit of $1.3 million – primarily the recovery of non-credit-related amounts reserved for in the prior year – as the Company concluded outstanding exit activities with a former fintech banking-as-a-service ("BaaS") partner.
Net Interest Income / Net Interest Margin:
- Net interest income totaled $21.9 million and $19.8 million for the third and second quarters, respectively. Excluding the aforementioned loan fee income, interest income decreased by $0.6 million in the quarter, primarily due to the decline in average balances of interest-earning assets, which declined $88.3 million from the prior quarter. Average balances of interest-bearing liabilities declined $80.7 million from the prior quarter, of which $32.3 million was wholesale deposits and $16.5 million was subordinated notes. Net interest margin was 3.60% for the quarter, compared to 3.15% for the prior quarter. The aforementioned loan fee income in the third and second quarters, along with the second quarter interest expense benefit realized upon the exit of the previously noted former fintech BaaS partner, had a positive effect on net interest margin of 49 and 8 basis points, respectively.
- On July 15, 2025, the Company completed a $10.0 million partial redemption of its $25.0 million of subordinated notes maturing October 15, 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). On July 15, 2025, the rate on the 2029 Notes reset to 8.65%, which was the then three-month Secured Overnight Funding Rate (SOFR) plus 433.5 basis points. Interest expense and the effective interest rate on the 2029 Notes were $0.3 million and 9.16%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $0.5 million and 7.86%, respectively, for the second quarter.
Capital:
- On August 25, 2025, the Company announced the adoption of a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may purchase up to $15 million of its issued and outstanding common stock ("Common Stock"). As of the end of the third quarter, the Company had repurchased 659,949 shares of its Common Stock at a weighted average price of $4.16 per share totaling $2.8 million.
- The ratio of tangible common stockholders' equity to tangible total assets was 14.2%1 compared to 13.4%1 at the prior quarter end. The increase in this ratio was primarily driven by a smaller balance sheet, net income for the period, and the decrease in unrealized losses on the Company's portfolio of securities available for sale. Tangible book value per common share ("TBV") was $4.011 and $3.851 at the end of the third and second quarters, respectively. TBV does not include the effect of the second quarter grant of performance-based restricted stock awards ("PSAs") totaling 3.4 million shares of Common Stock, which would negatively affect TBV by $0.16 and $0.14 in the respective quarters.
- At September 30, 2025, the Bank's tier 1 leverage ratio, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, common equity tier 1 capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratio were 13.67%, 18.73%, 18.73%, and 19.73%, respectively, compared to 12.89%, 17.86%, 17.86%, and 18.91%, respectively, at the prior quarter end. Capital ratios for the Company at September 30, 2025 for tier 1 leverage ratio, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, common equity tier 1 capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratio were 14.70%, 20.14%, 20.14%, and 21.77%, respectively, compared to 13.93%, 19.29%, 19.29%, and 21.37%, respectively, at the prior quarter end.
- As of September 30, 2025, the Bank's tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios exceeded the minimum capital ratios set forth in the Bank's Consent Order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC"), which requires the Bank to maintain a minimum tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.00% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.00%.
Asset Quality:
- Nonperforming loans, which include nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and accruing interest, were $28.6 million, or 1.14% of total assets, at quarter end compared to $24.0 million, or 0.94% of total assets, at the prior quarter end. The consecutive quarter increase in nonperforming loans was primarily attributable to a $4.8 million multifamily loan that was placed on nonaccrual status in the quarter. The loan was current as to principal and interest as of September 30, 2025, and based on the payment performance, strength of the guarantors, and value of the collateral, the Company believes that future credit losses, if any, will not be significant.
- A recovery of credit losses of $1.8 million was reported for the third quarter compared to a recovery of credit losses of $0.7 million for the prior quarter. The recovery of credit losses in the quarter was primarily due to loan portfolio balance reductions and a $0.8 million recovery of a portion of a specialty finance loan charged off in 2023.
- The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans held for investment was 1.07% at third quarter end compared to 1.11% at the prior quarter end. Net loan recoveries were $0.3 million in the quarter compared to net loan charge-offs of $0.5 million for the prior quarter. The net loan (recoveries) charge-offs to average loans outstanding ratio (quarter-to-date annualized) for the quarter was (0.07%) compared to 0.09% for the prior quarter.
Noninterest Income / Noninterest Expense:
- Noninterest income for the third quarter was $3.8 million compared to $3.2 million for the prior quarter. The improvement was primarily due to swap transaction fee income related to the execution of back-to-back interest rate swaps for commercial borrowers and a positive fair value adjustment of other equity investments. Additionally, noninterest income in the third and prior quarters included $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of reserves released upon the receipt of additional sales proceeds that were contractually held back from the 2024 sales of mortgage servicing rights.
- Noninterest expense for the third quarter was $20.0 million compared to $22.0 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $2.0 million. Salaries and employee benefits expense totaled $11.4 million in the quarter and $13.0 million in the prior quarter, including severance costs of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and $1.0 million and $2.0 million of expense for PSAs, respectively. The quarterly decline in salaries and employee benefits also reflects a net reduction in headcount. As of the end of the third and prior quarters, headcount was 311 and 333, respectively. Lower FDIC insurance premiums of $0.8 million in the quarter compared to the prior quarter were primarily attributable to a lower assessment rate. Partially offsetting these consecutive quarter declines were higher legal and consulting expenses.
Income Tax:
- Income tax expense for the third and second quarters was $1.9 million and $0.5 million, respectively, with an effective income tax rate for the same respective periods of 25.3% and 27.0%.
Balance Sheet:
- Total assets decreased to $2.50 billion from $2.56 billion at the prior quarter end, a reduction of $58.5 million, primarily driven by declines in loans held for investment of $65.9 million, partially offset by increases in securities available for sale. Included in the reduction of loans held for investment in the quarter were the payoffs and paydowns of approximately $53.3 million of out-of-market loans.
- Total deposits decreased to $1.95 billion from $2.01 billion at the prior quarter end, a decline of $59.2 million. Deposits, excluding wholesale deposits, decreased $31.0 million in the third quarter. Brokered deposit balances declined $28.2 million in the third quarter, as existing brokered time deposits were paid off upon maturity.
- Sources of liquidity, which consist primarily of on-balance sheet cash, unpledged securities available for sale, and available credit under secured borrowing facilities, totaled $808.7 million, or 200.0% of uninsured deposits as of September 30, 2025. Sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2025, totaled $750.0 million, or 183.3% of uninsured deposits.
Income Statement:
Net interest income was $21.9 million and $19.8 million for the third and second quarters of 2025, respectively, and $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2024. The third and second quarters of 2025 reflected $3.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of fee income related to the aforementioned out-of-market loan.
Average balances of interest-earning assets decreased $88.3 million to $2.44 billion in the third quarter of 2025, relative to the prior quarter, and decreased $358.6 million from the year-ago quarter period. Relative to the prior quarter and the year-ago period, the decrease reflected primarily lower average balances of loans held for investment, partially offset by higher average balances of securities available for sale. The yield on loans held for investment was 6.40% and 5.80% for the third and second quarters of 2025, respectively, and 5.80% for the third quarter of 2024. Fee income from the aforementioned out-of-market loan positively affected the yield on loans held for investment in the third and second quarters of 2025 by 62 and 6 basis points, respectively.
Average balances of interest-bearing liabilities decreased $80.7 million to $1.74 billion in the third quarter of 2025, relative to the prior quarter, primarily attributable to maturing wholesale deposits and the redemption of $25.0 million of the Company's subordinated notes in the late second and early third quarters of 2025. The third quarter of 2025 decline in average balances of interest-bearing liabilities relative to the same period of 2024 was primarily due to the exit of fintech deposit operations ($182.8 million), and the payoff of wholesale deposits ($162.6 million) and borrowings ($25.1 million).
Cost of funds was 2.65% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 2.63% for the second quarter of 2025, and 3.09% for the third quarter of 2024, while cost of deposits was 2.51%, 2.47%, and 2.91%, for the same respective periods. The interest expense benefit realized upon the exit of the previously noted former fintech BaaS partner had a positive 3 basis point effect on cost of deposits in the second quarter of 2025. Cost of deposits, excluding wholesale deposits, was 1.17% for the quarter, compared to 1.05% for the prior quarter, and 1.71% for the year-ago period.
Net interest margin was 3.60% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 3.15% for the second quarter, and 2.74% for the third quarter of 2024. Fee income from the aforementioned paid off loan and the interest expense benefit had a positive 49 and 8 basis point effect on net interest margin for the third and second quarters of 2025, respectively. Excluding the effect of the loan fee income for the third quarter of 2025, higher net income margin relative to the third quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to lower costs of time deposits, including wholesale deposits.
A recovery of credit losses of $1.8 million was reported for the third quarter of 2025, compared to a $0.7 million recovery of credit losses for the second quarter of 2025, and a recovery of credit losses of $6.2 million for the third quarter of 2024. The recovery of credit losses for the third quarter of 2025 was primarily due to loan portfolio balance reductions and a $0.8 million recovery of a specialty finance loan charged off in 2023, while recovery of credits losses for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to loan portfolio balance reductions. The recovery of credit losses for the third quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to an $8.4 million recovery from the sale of a specialty finance loan and lower reserve needs due to loan portfolio balance reductions, partially offset by higher specific reserves for certain purchased loans.
Noninterest income was $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, and $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2024. The improvement relative to the prior quarter was primarily due to swap transaction fee income, positive fair value adjustments of other equity investments, and higher proceeds of funds held back from the previously noted mortgage servicing rights sales. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 reflected a $1.0 million loss on the sale of mortgage servicing rights.
Noninterest expense was $20.0 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $22.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, and $26.5 million for the third quarter of 2024. Noninterest expense decreased $2.0 million from the prior quarter and $6.4 million from the year-ago period. Salaries and employee benefits expense included severance of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the third and second quarters of 2025, respectively, as well as $1.0 million and $2.0 million of expense for PSAs for the same respective periods. In the third quarter of 2025, higher other contractual services expense was due to the completion of a revenue enhancement project, while legal expenses were also higher. Offsetting these higher expenses were lower audit fees and FDIC insurance assessments, both reflecting the Bank's positive efforts under its Consent Order with the OCC. The decline in noninterest expense in the 2025 period compared to the same period of 2024 was primarily due to lower salaries and employee benefits expense, consulting fees, and FDIC insurance assessments, partially offset by higher legal fees.
Balance Sheet:
Loans held for investment were $1.91 billion at September 30, 2025, compared to $1.98 billion at June 30, 2025, and $2.18 billion at September 30, 2024. The $65.9 million decline relative to the prior quarter was partially due to payoffs and paydowns of approximately $53.3 million of out-of-market loans. The third quarter of 2025 decline relative to the same period of 2024 was primarily attributable to the Company's plans to purposefully and selectively reduce assets to partially meet the liquidity needs of the fintech BaaS depository operations exit, which was completed at the end of 2024, as well as to transition the Company to a more traditional community banking model.
Total deposits were $1.95 billion at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $59.2 million and $395.4 million from June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Wholesale deposit balances were $267.9 million and $296.1 million at the end of the third and second quarters of 2025, respectively. Excluding wholesale deposits, total deposits decreased $31.0 million from the prior quarter end and $232.8 million from the third quarter of 2024.
The Company previously reported that it was prohibited from the acceptance, renewal, or rollover of brokered deposits as a result of the Consent Order; however, the Company has received consecutive six-month approvals from the FDIC allowing the Bank to accept, renew, or rollover brokered deposits limited to the amount of maturities during this period. In June 2025, the Company received an extension for an additional six-month period, through December 2025. Brokered deposits at September 30, 2025 were $267.9 million, a decline of $28.2 million from June 30, 2025, and a decline of $162.6 million from September 30, 2024. The Company had secured brokered deposits to enhance liquidity during the fintech BaaS depository operations wind down, which was completed at the end of 2024.
Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 21.1%, 21.5%, and 19.6% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, respectively. Excluding brokered deposits, noninterest-bearing deposits represented 24.3%, 24.6%, and 23.3% of total deposits as of the same respective dates.
