BISMARCK, N.D., May 15, 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 first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Management Commentary

"Our first-quarter results reflect the continued strength of our core banking franchise and the disciplined execution of our relationship-driven strategy," said Daniel J. Collins, BNC's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Compared to the first quarter of 2025, net interest income grew 17.4%, our net interest margin expanded 10 basis points to 3.59% and net income increased 22.7% to $2.2 million. We're pleased to report this level of year-over-year progress in a quarter that also included elevated professional services expense related to our recently announced agreement to be acquired by OppFi Inc.

"On a sequential basis, both loans and deposits declined modestly during the quarter. The deposit decrease reflects a familiar seasonal pattern, as our customers deploy funds during the first quarter, and the loan decline reflects an elevated level of payoffs and prepayments combined with a more typical pace of new originations in our North Dakota markets. Our balance sheet remains strong, with ample liquidity and a tangible common equity ratio that improved to 10.22% as of March 31.

"As we noted in our April 29 announcement, our proposed combination with OppFi represents a meaningful opportunity to extend our reach and capabilities while preserving the relationship-driven banking model that has defined the Company since 1987. As that transaction moves forward, our team remains focused on what we do best: serving our customers, supporting our communities and operating the bank with the same discipline that produced this quarter's results. We are 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 First Quarter Comparison

The Company reported net income of $2.2 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the quarter compared to $1.8 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2025.

First quarter interest income increased $1.9 million, or 15.9%, to $13.9 million in the first quarter of 2026 from $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. Average yield on interest-earning assets in the quarter improved to 5.41% from 5.34% in the first quarter of 2025 driven by a $41.8 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.

Interest expense in the first quarter of 2026 was $4.7 million, an increase of $539 thousand from the 2025 period. The cost of core deposits in the first quarter of 2026 remained constant at 1.88% unchanged from the first quarter of 2025. The average balance of deposits increased by $119.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2025. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 2.35% during the first quarter of 2026, compared to 2.42% in the same period of 2025.

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2026 was $9.2 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 17.4%, from the first quarter of 2025. Net interest margin was 3.59% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 3.49% reported in the prior year period.

Non-interest income during the first quarter of 2026 was $1.4 million, compared to $1.4 million in the 2025 first quarter. Bank charges and service fees were $14 thousand higher quarter-over-quarter primarily due to higher servicing income and overdraft fees that were partially offset by lower non-use fees from lines of credit. Wealth management revenues increased by $54 thousand, or 10.4%, as the Company has benefitted from significant increases in the market value of financial assets year-over-year. Other income is $49 thousand lower than the prior year period due to the recognition of a $51 thousand gain on sale of repossessed assets in the 2025 period.

Non-interest expense during the first quarter of 2026 increased $604 thousand, or 8.8%, year-over-year, primarily due to a $558 thousand increase in professional services as the Company incurred additional expenses as a part of the recently announced definitive agreement to be acquired by OppFi Inc. The Company reported additional increases in data processing fees and occupancy expense. Core banking services, card processing charges and higher IT subscriptions provided the largest increases. Occupancy expense increased primarily due to higher expense for snow removal in the 2026 period.

In the first quarter of 2026, income tax expense was $646 thousand, compared to $542 thousand in the first quarter of 2025. The Company's effective tax rate was 23.0% and 23.5% for the first quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Tangible book value per common share on March 31, 2026 was $30.85, compared to $30.26 at December 31, 2025. The Company's tangible common equity capital ratio increased to 10.22% as of March 31, 2026, compared to 9.68% on December 31, 2025.

Assets and Liabilities

Total assets were $1.1 billion at March 31, 2026 versus $1.1 billion at December 31, 2025. Total loans held for investment decreased to $734.6 million on March 31, 2026 compared to $738.7 million on December 31, 2025. Debt securities decreased $3.6 million from year-end 2025, primarily due to normal amortization, while cash and cash equivalent balances totaled $179.7 million on March 31, 2026 compared to $211.5 million on December 31, 2025.

Total deposits decreased $39.3 million to $932.5 million as of March 31, 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:

 (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 March 31,
        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 $6.2 million time
        deposit balances as of March 31, 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 69% 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 0.9%, or $4.1 million, to $485.0 million at March 31, 2026, from $480.9 million at December 31, 2025. The Company has benefited from the addition of new assets under administration in 2026, but also experienced declines in the market value of financial assets attributable to declines in the broader financial markets.

Asset Quality

The allowance for credit losses was $8.6 million as of March 31, 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 March 31, 2026 decreased to 1.18% 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 maintained specific reserves as of year-end 2025.

Past due loans of 31-89 days increased to $1.7 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $664 thousand as of December 31, 2025. Nonperforming assets were $6.8 million on March 31, 2026, compared to $9.2 million on December 31, 2025. The ratio of nonperforming assets-to-total-assets was 0.64% at March 31, 2026 compared to 0.83% as of December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, $4.8 million, or 71%, of the $6.8 million in nonperforming loans 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 0.28% on March 31, 2026.

The Company continues to monitor the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environment for possible impacts to its loan portfolio. As of March 31, 2026, classified loans increased to $6.5 million from $5.7 million as of December 31, 2025. In recent periods, the Company experienced an increase in classified loans related to the transportation industry. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $725 thousand of classified loan balances associated with the transportation industry. The Company's overall exposure to the transportation industry is estimated to be $8.2 million at March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $1.2 million 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 26%, 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 a decrease in oil prices that, if prolonged, could have a negative impact on the oil industry and ancillary services. Potential risks to North Dakota's energy and agriculture industries include the possibility of adverse national legislation, 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 approximately describes the Company's concentrations by industry:

Capital

Banks and bank holding companies operate under separate regulatory capital requirements. As of March 31, 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:

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.

This press release contains references to financial measures, which are not defined in GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures include tangible common equity to total period end assets ratio. These non-GAAP financial measures have been included as the Company believes they are helpful for investors to analyze and evaluate the Company's financial condition.
