Independent Bank Posts $89.7M Q3 Net Income
INDB sits 22% above its 52-week low of $63.33.
Summary
Independent Bank Corp. reported third-quarter net income of $89.7 million, or $1.90 per share, with net interest income of $220.7 million, up $9.7 million, or 4.6%, from the prior quarter. Nonperforming loans rose to $125.7 million, or 0.68% of total loans, from $103.6 million, driven by one office real estate loan, and the provision was $6.5 million. The print follows a string of constructive disclosures — a July investor presentation recapping strong Q2 results, a September Raymond James conference deck, and a $0.64 quarterly dividend declared September 17 and paid October 9. With a $3.6B market cap, $89.7M in quarterly net income is a meaningful contributor to annual earnings power and supports the existing $150M buyback authorization. The key question now is whether the quarter's loan-loss provisions and non-performing loan trends improved from the elevated levels flagged in the Q1 10-Q, since credit quality has been the one soft spot in an otherwise solid 2026. Full Q3 results and any updated guidance will be the next data point to confirm the trend.
