BLOOMINGTON, Ill., Oct. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HBT Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: HBT) (the “Company” or “HBT Financial” or “HBT”), the holding company for Heartland Bank and Trust Company, today reported net income of $19.8 million, or $0.63 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2025. This compares to net income of $19.2 million, or $0.61 diluted earnings per share, for the second quarter of 2025, and net income of $18.2 million, or $0.57 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2024.

J. Lance Carter, President and Chief Executive Officer of HBT Financial, said, “During the third quarter of 2025, we continued to produce consistently strong earnings while we maintained a solid balance sheet and saw loan growth return. Adjusted net income(1) of $20.5 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, was our highest quarterly adjusted diluted earnings per share since becoming a public company. This was driven by an increase in adjusted pre-provision net revenue(1) to $28.3 million, an increase of 2.2% compared to the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted ROAA(1) was 1.61% and adjusted ROATCE(1) was 15.81% for the third quarter of 2025. Our net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis(1) remained stable, decreasing only 1 basis point to 4.18%. Our strong profitability coupled with an improvement in our AOCI due to lower interest rates resulted in a $0.62 increase in our tangible book value per share(1) to $16.64. Tangible book value per share(1) increased by 3.9% for the quarter and 14.4% over the last year.

Our balance sheet and asset quality remained strong with nonperforming assets to total assets of only 0.17%. Loan growth returned during the third quarter with quarter end loans increasing 6.2% on an annualized basis for the quarter due to higher loan pipelines at the end of the second quarter and fewer payoffs in the third quarter. Our credit discipline, strong profitability and solid balance sheet give us confidence that we are prepared for a variety of economic environments.

This morning, we announced the signing of a definitive agreement to merge with CNB Bank Shares, Inc. (“CNB Bank Shares” or “CNB”) and its wholly owned subsidiary CNB Bank & Trust, N.A (“CNB Bank”). CNB Bank Shares, like HBT Financial, has central Illinois roots going back for generations and has expanded into more metro areas in the Chicago MSA and St. Louis MSA. CNB Bank is a true community bank focused on supporting their customers and communities, and we are excited to partner with them to continue that tradition. For more information please see the press release and investor presentation that we released this morning.”

Adjusted Net Income

In addition to reporting GAAP results, the Company believes non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, which adjust for acquisition expenses, branch closure expenses, losses on extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on closed branch premises, realized gains (losses) on sales of securities, mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”) fair value adjustments, and the tax effect of these pre-tax adjustments, provide investors with additional insight into its operational performance. The Company reported adjusted net income of $20.5 million, or $0.65 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2025. This compares to adjusted net income of $19.8 million, or $0.63 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the second quarter of 2025, and adjusted net income of $19.2 million, or $0.61 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2024 (see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables below for reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most closely comparable GAAP financial measures).

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2025 was $50.0 million, an increase of 0.7% from $49.7 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to the higher day count during the third quarter, partially offset by slightly lower average interest-earning assets.

Relative to the third quarter of 2024, net interest income increased 4.7% from $47.7 million. The increase was primarily attributable to lower funding costs and improved yields on debt securities which were partially offset by a decrease in loan yields. Additionally, a $0.4 million increase in loan fees was mostly offset by a $0.3 million decrease in acquired loan discount accretion.

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 4.13%, compared to 4.14% for the second quarter of 2025, while net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis)(1) for the third quarter of 2025 was 4.18%, compared to 4.19% for the second quarter of 2025. Lower yields on loans, which decreased 3 basis points to 6.35% primarily due to a reduction in loan fees, accretion of acquired loan discounts, and nonaccrual interest recoveries, were largely offset by improved yields on debt securities, which increased 15 basis points to 2.75%.

Relative to the third quarter of 2024, net interest margin increased 15 basis points from 3.98% and net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis)(1) increased 15 basis points from 4.03%. The increase was primarily attributable to lower funding costs and higher yields on debt securities. Additionally, a 3 basis point increase in the contribution of loan fees to net interest margin was offset by a 3 basis point decrease in the contribution of acquired loan discount accretion to net interest margin.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2025 was $9.8 million, a 7.8% increase from $9.1 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to a $0.3 million increase in wealth management fees, primarily driven by higher values of assets under management and an increase in agricultural real estate brokerage commissions, as well as changes in the MSR fair value adjustment, with a $0.5 million negative MSR fair value adjustment included in the third quarter 2025 results compared to a $0.8 million negative MSR fair value adjustment included in the second quarter 2025 results. Additionally, smaller increases in service charges on deposit accounts and gains on the sale of foreclosed assets were partially offset by losses on securities and a decrease in card income.

Relative to the third quarter of 2024, noninterest income increased 13.1% from $8.7 million. The increase was primarily attributable to changes in the MSR fair value adjustment, with a $0.5 million negative MSR fair value adjustment included in the third quarter 2025 results compared to a $1.5 million negative MSR fair value adjustment included in the third quarter 2024 results, and a $0.5 million increase in wealth management fees, primarily driven by higher values of assets under management.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $32.5 million, a 1.9% increase from the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to a $0.4 million loss on the extinguishment of debt, associated with the early payoff of $40.0 million of subordinated notes during September 2025, and a $0.4 million increase in occupancy expense, primarily due to planned building maintenance and upgrades. In addition, there were $0.1 million of transaction-related expenses for the CNB merger recognized during the third quarter of 2025.

Relative to the third quarter of 2024, noninterest expense increased 3.8% from $31.3 million. The increase was primarily attributable to the $0.4 million loss on the extinguishment of debt, a $0.3 million increase in employee benefits expense, primarily driven by higher medical benefits costs, a $0.3 million increase in furniture and equipment expense, and a $0.2 million increase in data processing expense.

Income Taxes

During the third quarter of 2025 our effective tax rate decreased to 26.1% from 27.0% during the second quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily related to the absence of $0.3 million of additional tax expense recognized in the second quarter of 2025 related to the nonrecurring reversal of a stranded tax effect included in accumulated other comprehensive income, in connection with the maturity of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge during the second quarter of 2025.

Loan Portfolio

Total loans outstanding, before allowance for credit losses, were $3.40 billion at September 30, 2025, compared with $3.35 billion at June 30, 2025, and $3.37 billion at September 30, 2024. The $51.8 million increase from June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to new originations to existing customers in the commercial real estate – non-owner occupied and municipal, consumer and other segments. These increases were partially offset by some larger payoffs across the construction and land development and multi-family segments, as well as a seasonal reduction of $5.9 million in grain elevator lines of credit. Additionally, the increase in the multi-family segment was primarily due to completed projects being moved out of the construction and land development category.

Deposits

Total deposits were $4.35 billion at September 30, 2025, compared with $4.31 billion at June 30, 2025, and $4.28 billion at September 30, 2024. The $40.7 million increase from June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to $45.0 million of wealth management customer reciprocal money market deposits brought on balance sheet at the end of the third quarter of 2025. Partially offsetting this increase was a $10.1 million decrease in time deposits.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets totaled $8.6 million, or 0.17% of total assets, at September 30, 2025, compared with $6.5 million, or 0.13% of total assets, at June 30, 2025, and $8.6 million, or 0.17% of total assets, at September 30, 2024. Additionally, of the $7.6 million of nonperforming loans held as of September 30, 2025, $1.8 million were either wholly or partially guaranteed by the U.S. government.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.6 million for the third quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses primarily reflects a $1.2 million increase in required reserves driven by increased loan balances and changes within the portfolio; a $0.3 million increase in specific reserves; a $0.6 million decrease in required reserves resulting from changes in qualitative factors; and a $0.3 million decrease in required reserves driven by changes in the economic forecast.

The Company had net charge-offs of $0.1 million, or 0.02% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the third quarter of 2025, compared to net charge-offs of $1.0 million, or 0.12% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the second quarter of 2025, and net charge-offs of $0.6 million, or 0.07% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the third quarter of 2024.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses was 1.23% of total loans and 548% of nonperforming loans at September 30, 2025, compared with 1.24% of total loans and 741% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2025. In addition, the allowance for credit losses on unfunded lending-related commitments totaled $3.3 million as of September 30, 2025, compared with $3.1 million as of June 30, 2025.
