MVLY sits 69% above its 52-week low of $12.85 on light trading volume (0.2× avg).
Summary
Net income fell to $1.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, from $2.1 million, or $0.62, a year earlier — roughly a 43% drop. The provision for credit losses rose to $0.5 million from $0.1 million, driven mainly by one charged-off commercial loan, and non-accrual loans climbed to $13.0 million from $9.2 million at year-end. Classified loans nearly doubled to $33.1 million from $16.7 million, with accounts receivable loans at $15.4 million the largest bucket. Offsets: net interest income rose 7.01% to $8.4 million, non-interest bearing deposits grew $15.2 million (10.1% annualized), and capital ratios remain solid with CET1 at 10.31%. The quarter also carried a leadership change — Brian Carlson took over as President and CEO of Mission Valley Bank while Tamara Gurney moved up to Executive Chair and CEO of the holding company. Management flagged a digital initiative launch and balance-sheet repositioning for 2027; no date was given.
