“HOMB delivered a record $475.4 million in annual income, driven by strong fourth-quarter results: a sub-40% efficiency ratio, $400.2 million in loan growth, robust margin and resolution of the Texas lawsuit which provided additional income. These accomplishments underscore our commitment to operational excellence and shareholder value,” said John Allison, Chairman.

Quarterly Financial Performance Trends
Dollar amounts presented below in thousands.

Net income increased steadily through the first three quarters of 2025, reaching a peak of $123.6 million in Q3. Net income, as adjusted (non-GAAP)(1) followed a similar trend, ending the year at $117.9 million. In Q4, net income was $118.2 million, as the Company recorded $14.4 million in provision for credit losses primarily due to $400.2 million in 4th quarter loan growth. The full-year performance reflects strong profitability and disciplined financial management.

PPNR continued its upward trajectory throughout 2025, reflecting strong underlying earnings power. PPNR (non-GAAP)(1) grew from $146.2 million at Q4 2024 to $167.7 million at Q4 2025. PPNR, as adjusted, (non-GAAP)(1) increased to $167.1 million in Q4 2025 from $145.2 million in Q4 2024. This consistent growth highlights the strength of our operations and reinforces our ability to deliver sustained profitability and create long-term shareholder value.

Total revenue (net) demonstrated steady quarterly growth throughout 2025. Total revenue (net) increased from $258.4 million in Q4 2024 to $260.1 million in Q1 2025, followed by $271.0 million in Q2 and $277.7 million in Q3. By Q4 2025, it reached $282.1 million, reflecting continued momentum and strong performance across the year.

Interest expense declined steadily throughout 2025, decreasing from $105.6 million in Q4 2024 to $92.0 million in Q4 2025. Non-interest expense remained relatively stable, ranging from $112.2 million in Q4 2024 to $114.4 million in Q4 2025, with a peak of $116.0 million in Q2 2025, primarily due to legal claims expense. The overall trend reflects effective management of interest costs while maintaining consistent non-interest expense levels.

ROA demonstrated strong improvement in 2025, rising from 1.77% in Q4 2024 to a peak of 2.17% in Q3 2025. ROA, as adjusted, (non-GAAP)(1) followed a similar trend, reaching 2.10% in Q3 2025. Despite a slight moderation in Q4 2025 resulting from the provision for credit losses, both measures ended the year above 2.0%, reflecting continued strength in asset utilization and profitability. These results underscore our ability to deliver superior returns and position the Company for sustained growth.

The chart below underscores the Company’s strong and consistent performance in managing operating expenses, as reflected in its efficiency ratio over the past five quarters. The efficiency ratio is a key metric that measures how effectively the Company converts its revenue into net income by comparing non-interest expenses to total revenue. A lower efficiency ratio indicates greater operational efficiency and cost discipline, which are essential for sustaining profitability and enhancing shareholder value.

Net income has shown consistent growth over the past four years. In 2022, net income was $305.3 million, increasing by 29% to $392.9 million in 2023. Growth continued in 2024 with net income reaching $402.2 million, a 2% increase from the prior year. In 2025, net income rose significantly to $475.4 million, representing an 18% year-over-year increase and marking the highest level in the period.

Diluted earnings per share (DEPS) demonstrated strong growth over the past four years, rising from $1.57 in 2022 to $2.41 in 2025, an increase of 53%. Year-over-year, DEPS grew 24% in 2023, 4% in 2024, and accelerated to 20% in 2025, reflecting improved profitability. Shares outstanding declined steadily during the same period, moving from 203.4 million in 2022 to 196.4 million in 2025, a reduction of approximately 3.5%, which contributed to the increase in per-share earnings. This combination of higher earnings and reduced share count underscores the Company’s commitment to enhancing shareholder value.

Operating Highlights

Net income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2025 was $118.2 million, or $0.60 diluted earnings per share. When adjusting for non-fundamental items, net income and diluted earnings per share on an as-adjusted basis (non-GAAP), were $117.9 million(1) and $0.60 per share(1), respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

Our net interest margin was 4.61% and 4.56% for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively. The yield on loans was 7.30% and 7.39% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively, as average loans increased from $15.22 billion to $15.51 billion. The rate on interest bearing deposits decreased to 2.47% as of December 31, 2025, from 2.62% as of September 30, 2025, while average interest-bearing deposits increased from $13.32 billion to $13.47 billion.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, there was $2.6 million of event interest income compared to $1.5 million of event interest income for the third quarter of 2025. The increase in event income was accretive to the net interest margin by two basis points. Purchase accounting accretion on acquired loans was $1.3 million for both of the three-month periods ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, and average purchase accounting loan discounts were $13.8 million and $15.0 million for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $233.8 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, and $229.1 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. This increase in net interest income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, was the result of a $5.3 million decrease in interest expense, which was partially offset by a $565,000 decrease in interest income. The $5.3 million decrease in interest expense was due to a $4.2 million decrease in interest expense on deposits, a $648,000 decrease in interest expense on subordinated debt and a $393,000 decrease in interest expense on FHLB and other borrowed funds. The $565,000 decrease in interest income was primarily the result of a $1.8 million decrease in income from deposits with other banks and a $427,000 decrease in income from investments. These reductions were partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in loan income.

The Company reported $50.5 million of non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2025. The most important components of non-interest income were $12.8 million from other income, $11.1 million from other service charges and fees, $10.5 million from service charges on deposit accounts, $5.1 million from trust fees, $4.7 million in mortgage lending income, $2.7 million from dividends from FHLB, FRB, FNBB and other, $1.4 million from the increase in cash value of life insurance and $1.2 million from the fair value adjustment for marketable securities. Included within other income was $4.9 million income from a recovery on a lawsuit.

Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $114.4 million. The most important components of non-interest expense were $62.9 million salaries and employee benefits expense, $27.8 million in other operating expense, $14.4 million in occupancy and equipment expenses, $8.7 million in data processing expenses and $580,000 in merger and acquisition expenses. For the fourth quarter of 2025, our efficiency ratio was 39.54%, and our efficiency ratio, as adjusted (non-GAAP), was 39.53%(1).

The Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans was $297.6 million at December 31, 2025, or 1.90% of total loans, compared to the allowance for credit losses on loans of $285.6 million, or 1.87% of total loans, at September 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans was 350.17% and 335.22% of its total non-performing loans, respectively.

Shareholders’ equity was $4.30 billion at December 31, 2025, which increased approximately $81.9 million from September 30, 2025. The net increase in shareholders’ equity is primarily associated with the $77.0 million increase in retained earnings and the $17.2 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss. This was partially offset by the $14.9 million in stock repurchases for the quarter. Book value per common share was $21.88 at December 31, 2025, compared to $21.41 at September 30, 2025. Tangible book value per common share (non-GAAP) was $14.60(1) at December 31, 2025, compared to $14.13(1) at September 30, 2025. Book value per common share, as of December 31, 2025, was a record for the Company.

Stock Repurchases and Dividends

During the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 540,706 shares of common stock, which equated to a shareholder buyback yield of 0.27%(2). In comparison, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 350,000 shares of common stock, which equated to a shareholder buyback yield of 0.18%(2). The Company defines shareholder buyback yield as the percentage of the Company’s market capitalization spent on share repurchases. It reflects how much the Company is returning to the shareholders by reducing the number of outstanding shares, and it is calculated by dividing the Company’s total share repurchase cost for the period by the Company’s total market capitalization at the beginning of the period.

In addition, during the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the Company paid a dividend of $0.21 per share. This cash dividend represented a $0.01 per share, or 5.0%, increase over the $0.20 cash dividend paid during the third quarter of 2025.

Branches

The Company currently has 75 branches in Arkansas, 78 branches in Florida, 59 branches in Texas, 5 branches in Alabama and one branch in New York City.

Acquisition

The Company’s previously announced acquisition of Mountain Commerce Bancshares, Inc. (“MCBI”) and its bank subsidiary, Mountain Commerce Bank, is currently expected to close during the first half of 2026 and is subject to the approval of the shareholders of each company, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures--including net income (earnings), as adjusted; pre-tax, pre-provision, net income (PPNR); PPNR, as adjusted; pre-tax net income, as adjusted, to total revenue (net); pre-tax, pre-provision, profit percentage; pre-tax, pre-provision, profit percentage, as adjusted; diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted; return on average assets, as adjusted; return on average assets excluding intangible amortization; return on average assets, as adjusted, excluding intangible amortization; return on average common equity, as adjusted; return on average tangible common equity; return on average tangible common equity, as adjusted; return on average tangible common equity excluding intangible amortization; return on average tangible common equity, as adjusted, excluding intangible amortization; efficiency ratio, as adjusted; tangible book value per common share and tangible common equity to tangible assets--to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt, as well as adjust income available to common shareholders for certain significant items or transactions that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s primary business operating results. Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s business. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the tables of this release.
