What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • Net interest margin continued to improve (2.38% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 vs. 2.32% for the six months and 2.27% for Q1), supporting earnings quality despite competitive funding markets .

What Went Wrong

  • Sequential EPS declined to $0.31 from $0.38 as noninterest expense increased and revenue was slightly lower quarter over quarter, tempering momentum from Q2’s stronger print .
  • Deposit competition remained difficult per management commentary, and elevated funding costs, while down from Q2, continued to constrain spread dynamics .
  • Loans declined sequentially to $638.19M (from $647.66M in Q2), and non‑performing assets rose modestly vs. June 30, 2024, though still at low absolute levels, warranting monitoring .

Management Commentary

  • “Our net interest margin continued to improve, contributing to a modest improvement in our earnings and quarterly results. Our book value per share finished the March 31, 2025 quarter at $23.55. And as we have reported, the Board and management are always evaluating and exploring shareholder enhancement opportunities.” — Walter H. “Chip” Hasselbring, III, Chairman and CEO .
  • “While the Federal Reserve has begun easing short term rates, the competitive environment for deposits remains difficult. We held the balances in our loan portfolio steady as we were disciplined based on the funding environment. Our net interest margin continues to recover and our book value per share finished the December 31, 2024 quarter at $22.66.” — Walter H. “Chip” Hasselbring, III .
  • “We were pleased to see earnings improvement… Our capital ratios and asset quality remain strong.” — Walter H. “Chip” Hasselbring (Q1) .

Estimates Context

  • S&P Global consensus estimates for Q3 2025 EPS and revenue were not available for IROQ at the time of review (no consensus values shown) [GetEstimates]*.
  • S&P Global “Revenue actual” aligns with the company’s net interest income after provision plus noninterest income, recognizing $6.66M for Q3 2025* [GetEstimates].
  • Implication: With limited Street coverage, estimate revisions are unlikely to drive near‑term narrative; investors should anchor on actuals and sequential/YoY trends .
    *Values retrieved from S&P Global.

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Margin recovery remains the core driver: NIM improvement (2.38% nine‑month) and lower interest expense vs. prior year underpin better earnings quality .
  • Funding conditions are still competitive, but deposits rose sequentially and borrowings fell, signaling improved balance sheet positioning into Q4 .
  • Credit remains benign: NPAs at 0.04% and robust allowance coverage offer resilience if macro softens .
  • Sequential EPS pullback owes to slightly lower revenue and higher noninterest expense; watch cost discipline and fee trends in upcoming quarters .
  • Dividend continuity ($0.20 semiannual) and management’s focus on shareholder enhancement opportunities add a supportive capital return and strategic optionality backdrop .
  • Monitor loan growth and mix: loans dipped sequentially; funding costs and deposit competition will dictate growth pacing and spread capture .
  • With sparse sell‑side coverage, catalysts will likely be operational (margin trajectory, deposit trends) rather than estimate beats/misses; use company‑reported metrics and KPIs to track trajectory .
