First Bancshares, Inc. Announces Operating Results for Quarter Ended June 30, 2025 - ForexTV
MOUNTAIN GROVE, Mo., July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Bancshares, Inc. (OTCQX: FBSI) (“Company”), the holding company for Stockmens Bank (“Bank”), today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. For the second quarter of 2025, the Company reported after-tax net income of $1,824,000 or $0.75 per share-diluted compared to $1,630,000 or $0.67 per share-diluted for the same period in 2024. Net income for the second quarter of 2025 represents an after-tax return on average assets of 1.36% and an after-tax return on equity of 11.82%. These earnings ratios repeated their recent trend of outperformance despite an atypical $7.5 million increase in asset size due to an arbitrage play and strategic stockpiling of capital reserves. Since June 30, 2024, the Company experienced growth in all major balance sheet categories aside from investment securities with consolidated total assets increasing $27.3 million to $544.1 million, cash & cash equivalents increasing $13.0 million to $55.8 million, and net loans receivable increasing $15.9 million to $445.3 million. Total deposits increased $13.4 million to $468.3 million, and stockholders’ equity increased $6.3 million to $62.3 million. Through the second quarter of 2025, the Company has made significant efforts to fortify its balance sheet. Liquidity remains robust with excess cash being deployed into high-quality loan assets, earning asset yields rose, costs of funds has been kept in check, asset quality improved from already impressive levels, and capital ratios developed to a level that affords the Company the flexibility to pursue growth opportunities as they arise. The Bank meets all regulatory requirements for “well-capitalized” status. About the Company First Bancshares, Inc. is the holding company for Stockmens Bank, a FDIC-insured commercial bank chartered by the State of Colorado that conducts business from its home office in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and eight full-service Missouri offices in Mountain Grove, Marshfield, Ava, Kissee Mills, Gainesville, Crane, Hartville and Springfield, and full-service offices in Bartley, Nebraska and Akron, Colorado.
