First Northern Community Bancorp Reports First Quarter 2026 Net Income of $5.9 MillionApril 29, 2026 8:45 PM
Business Wire
First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, NASDAQ: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported net income of $5.9 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, up 60.9% compared to net income of $3.7 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Total assets as of March 31, 2026, were $1.92 billion, an increase of $48.8 million, or 2.6%, compared to March 31, 2025. Total net loans as of March 31, 2026, were $1.06 billion, an increase of $23.8 million, or 2.3%, compared to March 31, 2025. The increase in net loans was primarily driven by growth in commercial loans, which was partially offset by net reductions in commercial real estate, agriculture, residential mortgage and consumer loans. Total deposits as of March 31, 2026, were $1.69 billion, an increase of $19.9 million, or 1.2%, compared to March 31, 2025.
The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of March 31, 2026.
Jeremiah Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “The Company delivered strong financial results in the first quarter with net income of $5.9 million, an increase of 60.9% when compared to the net income of $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2025. Net interest margin expanded to 3.83%, up 19 basis points or 5.2% from 3.64% reported for the same quarter last year. This improvement was driven by loan growth and improved yields on interest-earning assets, while we maintained a disciplined cost of funds at 90 basis points for the first quarter. As a result, net interest income after provision for credit losses increased by $1.8 million or 12.0%.”
Commenting further, “In addition to the growth in net interest income we experienced an increase in non-interest income, primarily driven by our Beacon Wealth client acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2025. Investment and Brokerage income rose 154.3% in the first quarter when compared to the same quarter last year. At the same time, we maintained strong expense discipline, with operating expenses decreasing by 4.8% year-over-year, primarily due to lower consulting fees and loan collection expenses incurred during the current period.”
Lastly, Mr. Smith commented, “We remained focused on enhancing shareholder value, as reflected in our book value per share, increasing from $12.92 at December 31, 2025 to $13.03 at March 31, 2026. We also returned capital to shareholders through a 5% stock dividend paid on March 25, 2026, and announced a new stock repurchase program of up to 6% of outstanding shares on March 26, 2026. Subsequent to quarter-end, we uplisted from the OTCQX and the Company's common stock commenced trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on April 24, 2026, which should further strengthen our market presence.”
