Insights

CF Bankshares reported impressive Q2 2025 results with 197% YoY net income growth and consistent NIM expansion amid strategic commercial banking focus.

CF Bankshares has delivered a remarkably strong quarter with $5.0 million in net income ($0.77 per diluted share), representing a 197% increase compared to Q2 2024. The company's pre-provision, pre-tax net revenue (PPNR) reached $7.8 million, up 42% year-over-year, demonstrating substantial operational momentum.

The bank's net interest margin (NIM) expanded by 19bps sequentially and 44bps year-over-year to 2.83%, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of NIM improvement. This expansion occurred while cost of funds declined 48bps compared to Q2 2024, showing effective balance sheet management in a challenging rate environment.

Particularly noteworthy is the efficiency ratio improvement to 49.8% from 56.4% a year ago, indicating enhanced operational productivity. The bank maintained solid capital positions with book value per share increasing to $26.63.

Loan growth remains modest at 0.3% quarter-over-quarter and 1.9% since year-end, but the composition shows a strategic shift toward commercial relationships. Commercial real estate loans increased $52.8 million since December, while single-family residential loans decreased $27.9 million, reflecting the bank's strategic focus on higher-yielding commercial assets.

Asset quality metrics show some pressure with nonaccrual loans increasing to $16.6 million (0.94% of total loans) from $14.5 million last quarter. The allowance for credit losses increased to 1.08% of total loans, driven by a $1.2 million specific reserve on a loan participation that management notes is outside their core portfolio.

Deposit growth of 1.5% quarter-over-quarter and 3.1% year-to-date shows the bank can attract funding while maintaining reasonable funding costs. The institution also reduced concentration risk with 29.1% of deposits exceeding FDIC insurance limits, down from 31.1% in the prior quarter.

The bank's return metrics – 11.47% ROE and 0.97% ROA – demonstrate solid profitability levels that should support continued capital generation and the recently declared $0.08 per share dividend.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income totaled $14.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and increased $1.1 million, or 8.5%, compared to $12.9 million for the prior quarter, and increased $2.6 million, or 23.2%, compared to $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2024.

The increase in net interest income compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to a $1.2 million, or 4.0%, increase in interest income, partially offset by a $67,000 increase in interest expense.  The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to a 16bps increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets, coupled with a $24.6 million, or 1.3%, increase in average interest-earning assets. The increase in interest expense when compared to the prior quarter was attributed to a 2bps increase in the average cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a $578,000, or 0.04%, decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities.  The net interest margin of 2.83% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 increased 19bps compared to the net interest margin of 2.64% for the prior quarter.

The increase in net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to a $1.6 million, or 8.9%, decrease in interest expense, coupled with a $1.0 million, or 3.6%, increase in interest income.  The decrease in interest expense was attributed to a 41bps decrease in the average cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a $1.4 million, or 0.09%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to a $76.5 million, or 4.0%, increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding, partially offset by a 3bps decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. The net interest margin of 2.83% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 increased 44bps compared to the net interest margin of 2.39% for the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $1.6 million and increased $374,000, or 31.0%, compared to $1.2 million for the prior quarter.  The increase was primarily due to a $196,000 increase in SWAP fee income, a $92,000 increase in gain on sales of residential mortgage loans, and a $103,000 decrease in the loss on the sale of a security during the prior quarter.

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased $362,000, or 29.7%, compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.  The increase was primarily due to a $196,000 increase in SWAP fee income, a $119,000 increase in gain on sales of residential mortgage loans, and a $98,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts.

The following table represents the notional amount of loans sold during the three months ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024 (in thousands).

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 totaled $7.8 million and decreased $200,000, or 2.5%, compared to $8.0 million for the prior quarter.  The decrease in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $229,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was impacted by a $183,000 decrease in payroll taxes, which on a percentage basis is higher in the first quarter of the year.

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 increased $662,000, or 9.3%, compared to $7.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.  The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $384,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits and a $309,000 increase in professional fee expense.  The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily driven by higher salary expense due to increased FTEs and expense accruals related to staff incentives and deferred compensation incentives in the second quarter of 2025 when compared to the second quarter of 2024. The increase in professional fee expense was predominantly due to increased recruiting expenses in the second quarter of 2025 when compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (effective tax rate of 21.3%), compared to $1.1 million for the prior quarter (effective tax rate of 20.6%) and $237,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 (effective tax rate of 12.3%).

Loans and Loans Held For Sale

The increase in loans and leases from December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a $52.8 million increase in commercial real estate loan balances, a $3.3 million increase in home equity lines of credit balances, a $3.0 million increase in commercial and industrial (C&I) loan balances, and a $2.7 million increase in construction loan balances, partially offset by a $27.9 million decrease in single-family residential loan balances and a $1.6 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans. The decrease in single-family residential loan balances was due primarily to the sale of two portfolios of loans in the first quarter of 2025 totaling $18.1 million

The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases totaled $19.1 million at June 30, 2025 compared to $17.8 million at March 31, 2025 and $17.5 million at December 31, 2024.  The ratio of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases to total loans and leases was 1.08% at June 30, 2025 compared to 1.01% at March 31, 2025 and 1.00% at December 31, 2024. 

There was $1.4 million in provision for credit losses expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $582,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and $3.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

The increase in provision expense and the allowance for credit losses on loans was driven by a $1.2 million increase in the specific reserve on a loan participation.  This participation was purchased in 2022 and is not part of the Bank's core loan portfolio.

Deposits

Deposits totaled $1.81 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $26.2 million, or 1.5%, when compared to $1.78 billion at March 31, 2025, and an increase of $54.1 million, or 3.1%, when compared to $1.76 million at December 31, 2024.  The increase when compared to March 31, 2025 was primarily due to a $21.6 million increase in interest-bearing account balances, coupled with a $4.5 million increase in noninterest-bearing accounts balances.  The increase when compared to December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a $31.4 million increase in interest-bearing account balances, coupled with a $22.7 million increase in noninterest-bearing accounts balances.

At June 30, 2025, approximately 29.1% of our deposit balances exceeded the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000, as compared to approximately 31.1% at March 31, 2025 and approximately 29.8% at December 31, 2024.

Borrowings

FHLB advances and other debt totaled $100.9 million at June 30, 2025, compared to $92.7 million March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.  The increase was primarily due to a $10 million increase in the outstanding balance on the holding company credit facility.

Capital

Stockholders' equity totaled $177.0 million at June 30, 2025, an increase of $4.3 million, or 2.5%, when compared to $172.7 million at March 31, 2025, and an increase of $8.6 million, or 5.1%, from $168.4 million at December 31, 2024.  The increase in total stockholders' equity during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributed to net income, partially offset by $456,000 in dividend payments. The increase in stockholders' equity during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributed to net income, partially offset by $909,000 in dividend payments.
