First Capital, Inc. Reports Record Quarterly Earnings

MWN-AI** Summary

First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP), the parent company of First Harrison Bank, announced impressive financial results for the third quarter of 2025, reporting a record net income of $4.5 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, a significant increase from $2.9 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, in the same quarter last year.

The boost in net interest income, which rose by $2.1 million, was driven by a higher average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets, increasing from 4.59% to 4.94%. The average balance of these assets also climbed from $1.17 billion to $1.20 billion year-over-year. Additionally, the reduction in interest expense by $397,000, along with an improved net interest margin, which jumped from 3.19% to 3.71%, contributed significantly to earnings growth.

Notably, the provision for credit losses decreased markedly from $463,000 in 2024 to $150,000 in 2025, reflecting management's positive assessment of credit quality. Furthermore, noninterest income rose by $506,000, bolstered by a gain on equity securities as well as increased loan sale gains and ATM fee income.

However, expenses also rose, with noninterest expenses up $540,000 primarily due to costs related to expanding branch facilities and elevated compensation expenses. The company's income tax expense increased by $530,000, resulting in a higher effective tax rate of 19.2%.

For the nine months ended September 30, net income also surged to $11.5 million, or $3.43 per diluted share, compared to $8.7 million, or $2.59 per diluted share, for the prior year. The total assets at the end of the quarter increased to $1.24 billion, demonstrating strong growth in the company's financial standing.

MWN-AI** Analysis

First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP) has reported record quarterly earnings for Q3 2025, showing significant improvements in net income and operational efficiency. The company achieved a net income of $4.5 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, a commendable rise from the $2.9 million reported for the same quarter in 2024. This upward trajectory in profitability is driven largely by a robust increase in net interest income, which rose by $2.1 million year-over-year, reflecting improvements in yields and asset management.

The company's effective tax rate has increased, primarily due to a higher proportion of net income being taxable, which indicates a potentially healthier bottom line moving forward as earnings grow. Additionally, a decrease in the provision for credit losses from $463,000 to $150,000 signifies better credit quality and reduced non-performing loans, reinforcing a positive outlook for loan portfolio stability.

Caution should be exercised, however, as noninterest expenses have also risen, attributed to increases in occupancy and equipment expenses, as well as compensation. This cost increment should be monitored closely, as it could impact overall profitability if not managed effectively.

The increase in the tax-equivalent net interest margin—from 3.19% to 3.71%—is particularly noteworthy and suggests improved asset yield coupled with lower interest-bearing liability costs. Given the rise in average tax-equivalent yields on interest-earning assets, investors may find value in FCAP as it moves to leverage its stronger earning capacity.

In light of the positive earnings report and operational strengths, I recommend a cautious buy for First Capital, Inc. However, investors should remain attentive to emerging trends in interest rates and cost management strategies that could influence future performance. With careful monitoring, FCAP appears well-positioned for continued growth.

CORYDON, Ind., Oct. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FCAP), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $4.5 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $2.9 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

Net interest income after provision for credit losses increased $2.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Interest income increased $1.4 million when comparing the two periods due to an increase in the average tax-equivalent yield (1) on interest-earning assets from 4.59% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to 4.94% for the same period in 2025, in addition to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets from $1.17 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $1.20 billion for the same period in 2025. Interest expense decreased $397,000 when comparing the two periods. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.87% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to 1.66% for the same period in 2025, while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $875.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $891.3 million for the same period in 2025. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the tax-equivalent net interest margin (1) increased from 3.19% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to 3.71% for the same period in 2025. Refer to the accompanying average balance sheet for more information regarding changes in the composition of the Company’s balance sheet and resulting yields and costs from the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Based on management’s analysis of the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) on loans and unfunded loan commitments, the provision for credit losses decreased from $463,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $150,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The Bank recognized net charge-offs of $17,000 and $64,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Noninterest income increased $506,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to the Company recognizing a $150,000 gain on equity securities for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to a $196,000 loss on equity securities for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company recognized a $119,000 increase in gains on sale of loans as well as an increase of $47,000 in ATM and debit card fee income when comparing the two periods. These increases were partially offset by the Company recognizing a net $39,000 loss on sale of available for sale securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The Company did not sell any securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Noninterest expenses increased $540,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024. This was primarily due to increases in occupancy and equipment and compensation and benefits expenses of $331,000 and $202,000, respectively. The increase in occupancy and equipment expenses is primarily due to costs for the demolition and subsequent rebuilding of one of the Bank’s Bullitt County branches in addition to a loss recognized for the remaining net book value of assets associated with the branch. The increase in compensation and benefits is due to increases in salary and wages associated with annual cost of living and performance related adjustments.

Income tax expense increased $530,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 resulting in an effective tax rate of 19.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to 15.6% for the same period in 2024. The increase in the Bank’s effective tax rate for the quarter reflects a higher proportion of net income being subject to taxation compared to the same period last year.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $11.5 million, or $3.43 per diluted share, compared to net income of $8.7 million, or $2.59 per diluted share, for the same period in 2024.

Net interest income after provision for credit losses increased $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Interest income increased $4.8 million when comparing the two periods due to an increase in the average tax-equivalent yield (1) on interest-earning assets from 4.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 4.80% for the same period in 2025, in addition to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets from $1.14 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $1.19 billion for the same period in 2025. Interest expense increased $198,000 as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.72% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 1.67% for the same period in 2025 while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $846.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $886.0 million for the same period in 2025. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the tax-equivalent net interest margin (1) increased from 3.16% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 3.55% for the same period in 2025. Refer to the accompanying average balance sheet for more information regarding changes in the composition of the Company’s balance sheet and resulting yields and costs from the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Based on management’s analysis of the ACL on loans and unfunded loan commitments, the provision for credit losses decreased from $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $794,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease in non-performing loans and management’s assessment of the macroeconomic environment. The Bank recognized net charge-offs of $214,000 and $149,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Noninterest income increased $450,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to the Company recognizing a $127,000 gain on equity securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a loss of $270,000 for the same period in 2024. In addition, the Company also recognized a $90,000 increase in gains on sale of loans and a $39,000 increase in service charges on deposits when comparing the two periods. These were partially offset by the Company recognizing a net $94,000 loss on sale of available for sale securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a net gain of $32,000 on sale of available for sale securities for the same period in 2024.

Noninterest expenses increased $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024. This was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits and occupancy and equipment expenses of $769,000 and $560,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods. The increase in compensation and benefits is due to increases in salary and wages associated with annual cost of living and performance related adjustments as well as increases in the cost of Company-provided health insurance benefits. The increase in occupancy and equipment expenses is primarily due to costs associated with snow removal across the Company’s branch network in the first quarter of 2025, as well as losses on the disposal of premises and equipment associated with two of the Bank’s branches, the upgrade of the Company’s call center system, and the demolition of one of the Bank’s branches.

Income tax expense increased $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 15.0% for the same period in 2024. The increase in the Bank’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 reflects a higher proportion of net income being subject to taxation compared to the same period last year.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024

Total assets were $1.24 billion at September 30, 2025 compared to $1.19 billion at December 31, 2024.
