Management Commentary

  • “We are thrilled about the trend we are seeing in our net income. It increased from $643,000 in the first quarter of 2025 to $678,000 in the second quarter for five straight quarters of increased earnings. This has led us to our best quarter since our initial public offering (IPO) 4 years ago.” — Jason Sobel, CEO .
  • “The driving forces of the increased earnings are higher yielding commercial loans and relationships, continued focus on loan and deposit pricing to further expand net interest margin, and managing expenses closely.” .
  • “The bank has invested more than ever into new technology and new products… automated consumer loan process… online account opening… online mortgage… new Treasury Management products…” .
  • On asset quality: two large relationships ($6.2M multifamily; $2.8M land development) moved to nonaccrual; both <65% LTV and well collateralized .

Q&A Highlights

No Q2 2025 earnings call transcript was available for TCBS; therefore, no Q&A highlights or real-time guidance clarifications could be reviewed [earnings-call-transcript list returned none for the period].

Estimates Context

  • S&P Global consensus for EPS and revenue was not available for TCBS in Q2 2025; therefore, no formal beat/miss vs Street can be determined. Values marked with an asterisk are retrieved from S&P Global.
  • Given micro-cap coverage limitations, we would expect limited estimate dispersion; near-term estimate updates (if any) would likely reflect: (i) higher noninterest income run-rate, (ii) slightly lower interest income due to nonaccrual interest reversal, and (iii) lower funding costs as FHLB balances remain reduced .

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Earnings trajectory intact: five consecutive quarters of improvement, with Q2 2025 net income at $0.68M despite a one-time interest reversal; operating leverage and balance-sheet repositioning continue to work .
  • Funding cost tailwind: materially lower FHLB balances and stable deposit costs underpin NII resilience even as headline interest income was pressured by nonaccrual reversals .
  • Asset quality watch item: spike in nonaccrual to 3.58% tied to two credits; collateral coverage (<65% LTV) helps limit loss risk, but timing of resolution is a swing factor for NII and reserve needs near term .
  • Expense discipline sustained: tech and compensation savings trimmed noninterest expense; board downsizing implies ~$18k lower director fees per quarter going forward .
  • Shareholder returns steady: dividend maintained at $0.04/share and active buybacks (84.5k shares; $1.3M) support capital return without compromising well-capitalized status (11.32% leverage ratio) .
  • Trading setup: Near-term stock moves likely hinge on confidence in nonaccrual resolutions versus continued operating momentum (NII stability, fee income) and cost controls; absence of Street estimates lowers headline beat/miss volatility but heightens narrative-driven moves .
