Key highlights of Touchmark Bancshares' results for the third quarter of 2025 include:
— Net income increases 65% to $609,000;
— Net interest margin jumps 75 basis points;
— Added a Senior Credit Officer;
— Reduced OREO by $1.1 million at no additional loss; and
— New customer growth rate accelerated.
“During the third quarter, net income rebounded to $609,000 driven by significant growth in our net interest margin supported by higher loan yields and lower deposit cost,” said Bobby Krimmel, President and CEO of Touchmark National Bank. “New loan growth for the quarter was stronger than anticipated and resulted in the lowest percentage decline in the loan portfolio since December 2023. We expect net loan growth to turn positive for the fourth quarter of 2025, three months faster than previously expected and supported by a robust pipeline of $35 million in opportunities.”
Krimmel continued, “We strategically reduced our non-core deposit balance during the quarter and shifted retail CD customers to money market accounts to improve the balance sheet mix. We added a new Senior Credit Officer and successfully disposed of a piece of OREO at no additional loss. Liquidity remains strong and supports expected future loan growth.”
