Additionally, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per common share for the next regularly scheduled dividend, payable on March 16, 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 2, 2026.
Archie Brown, President and CEO, commented on the quarter, "I am very pleased with our record earnings performance for the fourth quarter. Adjusted(1) earnings per share were $0.80, leading to an adjusted(1) return on assets of 1.52%, an adjusted(1) return on tangible common equity ratio of 20.3%. The net interest margin, which declined slightly from the third quarter, has proven resilient as the reduction in funding costs negated most of the impact of short term rate reductions. Balance sheet trends were solid for the quarter with loan growth of 4% on an annualized basis and total average deposits increasing by approximately 7% on an annualized basis, excluding the impact from the Westfield acquisition.
Mr. Brown continued, "I am especially pleased with our robust noninterest income. Total adjusted(1) fee income was $77.3 million and increased 5% compared to the linked quarter. Wealth Management and foreign exchange income both increased by double-digit percentages, while leasing and mortgage income also remained strong. While adjusted(1) noninterest expenses increased by 6% from the linked quarter, most of the increase was driven by the Westfield acquisition."
Mr. Brown commented on asset quality, "Asset quality was relatively stable for the quarter and provision expense was in line with our expectations at $10.1 million. Nonperforming assets (NPAs) increased slightly to 0.48% of assets and classified assets declined slightly to 1.11% of assets. Three loans drove the increase in NPAs, and net charge-offs were 27 bps, which was within our range of expectations."
Mr. Brown highlighted full year results. "2025 was another great year for First Financial. On an adjusted(1) basis, our net income was $281.1 million, or $2.92 per share. Adjusted(1) return on assets was 1.49% and adjusted(1) return on tangible common equity was 19.3%. We were pleased with the performance of the net interest margin for the year. While the margin did decline year over year from 4.05% to 3.98%, we were able to offset most of the impact of short term rate decreases through the diligent management of deposit costs. Adjusted (1) noninterest income increased by 16% to a record $279.8 million, led by growth in wealth management, foreign exchange, leasing and mortgage income. The result was record revenue for the Company of $921.8 million, an 8% increase over 2024."
Mr. Brown discussed asset quality and capital, "Similar to the fourth quarter, asset quality was relatively stable for the year. Provision expense declined 21% from 2024, net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans declined 5 basis points to 0.25% and our ACL coverage increased by 6 basis points to 1.39%. Capital levels remained strong during 2025. While the acquisition of Westfield negatively impacted our capital, our strong earnings drove an increase to tangible book value per share of 11%, from $14.15 to $15.74."
Mr. Brown concluded, "We were very pleased with our overall performance in 2025. In addition to outstanding financial results, we successfully launched our Western Michigan banking office in Grand Rapids, and acquired two banking companies which strengthens our core funding and provides us with a platform for growth in two of the largest metropolitan markets in the Midwest. We received our second consecutive Outstanding CRA rating, demonstrating our commitment to creating opportunities for lower income communities in our footprint, and we were one of only 70 companies worldwide to be recognized by Gallup as an Exceptional Workplace. Finally, I want to recognize and thank our associates for their hard work and commitment. Due to their efforts, First Financial consistently delivers industry leading performance."

(2) The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a 21% tax rate. Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest margin and net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis. Therefore, management believes these measures provide useful information to investors by allowing them to make peer comparisons. Management also uses these measures to make peer comparisons. |
