“PenFed is proud to report it exceeded its goals for the first half of 2025. Compared to the first half of the prior year, year-to-date net income was $83.1 million versus $45.6 million, an increase of 82%; regulatory capital was 10.32% versus 9.57%, and liquidity increased from 12.5% to 14.5%,” saidPenFed President and CEOJames Schenck. “PenFed is committed to supporting our members with world class financial products at great rates through all economic cycles. We are proud to serve members' increased demand for auto loans and home equity lines of credit during the first half of the year. Our savers also benefited from shifting their certificates to online savings accounts that provide the flexibility and value our members have come to expect. As we move through the remainder of the year, we could see some modest downward pressure on both consumer deposit and loan rates which is good news for our members looking to borrow or refinance.”
