Net Interest Income Drops to $49.5M in Q2, Squeezing Margins
GSBC sits 44% above its 52-week low of $53.76.
Summary
Great Southern Bancorp's Q2 net interest income fell to $49.5 million, down from prior periods, signaling margin pressure. The company reported preliminary second quarter earnings of $1.43 per diluted common share, which were impacted by non-recurring expenses and a workforce reduction. This follows a Q1 that showed net interest margin expansion and loan growth, making the reversal notable. With a market cap near $845 million, the drop is material and could weigh on earnings. Watch for full Q2 results to see if non-interest income or cost controls offset the hit.
