Horizon Bancorp, Inc. Reports Strong Third Quarter 2025 Results and Successful Execution of the Balance Sheet Repositioning

GlobeNewswire

October 22, 2025


MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — (NASDAQ GS: HBNC) – Horizon Bancorp, Inc. (“Horizon” or the “Company”), the parent company of Horizon Bank (the “Bank”), announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

“Horizon's third quarter results were highlighted by the successful execution of our previously announced strategic balance sheet repositioning, which has exceeded our initial expectations and is on pace to achieve the top tier financial outcomes outlined in our plan. At this point, there is little work left to be done, and the Company will continue its focus on improving shareholder value from a position of strength”, President and CEO, Thomas Prame stated. “More importantly, underneath the specific impacts related to the balance sheet activities, our third quarter results further evidence the continued strength of the organization's exceptional core community banking franchise. Our net interest margin continues to expand, the commercial loan engine is producing solid results, the core client-driven deposit franchise is growing, credit quality is excellent and expenses are well managed. As we look ahead to the end of 2025 and into 2026, we will remain disciplined in our execution, focusing on profitable growth and smart redeployment of our peer-leading capital generation, all focused on creating durable returns and sustainable long-term value for our shareholders.”

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $222.0 million, or $(4.69) per diluted share, compared to net income of $20.6 million, or $0.47, for the second quarter of 2025 and $18.2 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. As previously disclosed, results for the third quarter of 2025 included several items impacting non-interest income, non-interest expense and the provision for credit loss directly related to the Company's successful efforts during the quarter to repositioning the balance sheet.

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $177.4 million, or $(3.94) per diluted share, compared to net income of $46.3 million, or $1.05, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

  • Successful execution of strategic Balance Sheet transformation, positioning the bank for top quartile performance.
  • Net interest income of $58.4 million increased 5.5% compared with $55.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and 24.5% compared with $46.9 million in the year ago period. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis1, expanded for the eighth consecutive quarter, to 3.52%, compared with 3.23% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2.66% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
  • Total loans held for investment (“HFI”) decreased (13.0)% compared to the linked quarter annualized, with strong organic commercial loan growth of $57.9 million, or 7.0% annualized. The decrease in loans HFI is directly related to the continued planned runoff and the eventual sale of the Company's indirect auto portfolio of $176 million in the third quarter.
  • Funding continued to trend favorably, with non-interest bearing deposits remaining flat. Savings and money market balances were specifically impacted by the planned high-cost deposit runoff related to the balance sheet repositioning. Overall interest-bearing liability cost decreased by 2 bps during the quarter.
  • Credit quality remained strong, with annualized net charge offs of 0.07% of average loans during the third quarter. Non-performing assets remain well within expected ranges, with non-performing assets to total asset of 53 bps for the third quarter.
  • While reported expenses were impacted by a couple of items related to the balance sheet activities in the quarter, when considering these items, expenses continued to be well managed compared with the second quarter of 2025. These results reflect management's continued commitment to generate positive operating leverage with a more efficient expense base.

Income Statement Highlights

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $58.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $55.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, driven by the continued expansion of the Company's net FTE interest margin2, which increased to 3.52% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 3.23% for the second quarter of 2025. While the margin saw expansion throughout the quarter, most of the increase came later in the quarter as a byproduct of the balance sheet repositioning, all of which transpired following the close of the Company's equity capital raise on August 22nd, 2025.

Provision for Credit Losses

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a benefit for credit losses of $(3.6) million. This compares to a provision for credit losses expense of $2.5 million during the second quarter of 2025, and a provision for credit losses expense of $1.0 million during the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in the provision for credit losses during the third quarter of 2025 when compared with the second quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to the release of approximately $3.1 million in total Allowance against the sold portion of the Indirect Auto portfolio. Additionally, the Provision benefitted from continued improvement in the Company's historical loss metrics and the release of the $0.2 million reserve against the previous Held-To-Maturity investment portfolio. These favorable items were partially offset by net growth in Commercial Loans HFI and a modest increase in specific reserves.

For the third quarter of 2025, Net Charge-Offs were $0.8 million, or an annualized 0.07% of Average Loans Outstanding, compared to Net Charge-Offs of $0.3 million, or an annualized 0.02% of average loans outstanding for the second quarter of 2025, and Net Charge-Offs of $0.4 million, or an annualized 0.03% of Average Loans Outstanding, in the third quarter of 2024.

The Company's Allowance for Credit Losses as a percentage of period-end loans HFI was 1.04% at September 30, 2025, compared to 1.09% at June 30, 2025 and 1.10% at September 30, 2024.

Non-Interest Income

Total non-interest (loss) income $ (295,334 ) $ 10,920 $ 16,499 $ (28,954 ) $ 11,511

Total Non-Interest (Loss) was $295.3 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to Non-Interest Income of $10.9 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in Non-Interest Income of $306.3 million is due to the loss on the sale investment securities and the pre-tax loss of $7.7 million on the sale of the Company's Indirect Auto portfolio, both of which were related to the balance sheet repositioning efforts. Service Charges, Interchange Fees and Gain on Sale of Mortgage Loans benefited from normal seasonality. Other categories remained relatively unchanged when compared with the prior period.

Total Non-Interest Expense was $53.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $39.4 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in Non-Interest Expense during the third quarter of 2025 when compared with the prior period was primarily driven by a $12.7 million prepayment penalty related to the payoff of $700 million in FHLB advances during the quarter. Additionally, the quarter included approximately $0.9 million of expenses related to the balance sheet initiatives and other efforts, which are not expected to recur in future periods. Apart from these specific items, total Non-Interest Expense was relatively unchanged when compared with the prior quarter.

Income Taxes

Resulting from the reported losses incurred during balance sheet repositioning efforts, Horizon recorded a net tax credit of $64.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.5%.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Total assets decreased by $939.6 million, or 12.3%, to $6.7 billion as of September 30, 2025, from $7.7 billion as of June 30, 2025. The decrease in total assets is primarily due to the Company's balance sheet repositioning efforts, which resulted in a decrease in total investment securities of $1.2 billion and a decrease in loans held for investment of $161.9 million, partially offset by an increase in interest earning deposits. During the quarter, the Company moved its entire held to maturity securities portfolio to available for sale, sold approximately $1.7 billion in book value and reinvested approximately $580 million of the proceeds in the available for sale portfolio, resulting in a net increase in available for sale securities of $651.2 million. Total loans were $4.8 billion at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $163.0 million from June 30, 2025 balances, as organic commercial loan growth was offset by the continued run-off of consumer balances and the sale of approximately $176 million of the Company's indirect auto portfolio on September 26, 2025.

Total deposits decreased by $178.9 million, or 3.1%, to $5.5 billion as of September 30, 2025 when compared to balances as of June 30, 2025. The decrease was driven by the ongoing balance sheet repositioning efforts, which led to a decline of approximately $275 million in high-cost transactional deposit balances, which were partially offset by growth in commercial interest-bearing and seasonal inflows in relationship-based public funds balances. Non-interest bearing deposit balances remained relatively unchanged in the current period. Total borrowings decreased by $720.1 million during the quarter to $160.2 million as of September 30, 2025, due to the payoff of the FHLB advances related to the balance sheet repositioning. Subordinated notes balances increase by $98.3 million during the quarter from the closing of the Company's $100.0 million offering, which closed on August 29, 2025. Subsequent to quarter end, on October 1, 2025, the Company redeemed the remaining $56.5 million subordinated note issuance previously outstanding.

Capital

The following table presents the Consolidated Regulatory Capital Ratios of the Company for the previous three quarters, and the Company's preliminary estimate of its consolidated regulatory capital ratios for the quarter ended September 30, 2025:

Tier 1 capital (to average assets) 8.22 9.59 9.25 8.88

Tangible book value, which excludes intangible assets from total equity, per common share1 was $9.76, decreasing $(4.56) during the third quarter of 2025.

Credit Quality

As of September 30, 2025, total non-accrual loans increased by $5.1 million, or 20.8%, from June 30, 2025, to 0.61% of total loans HFI.
