Richmond Mutual Q2 Net Income Drops to $2.2M on Merger Costs, Core Trends Improve
RMBI sits 21% above its 52-week low of $12.77.
Summary
Richmond Mutual reported Q2 2026 net income of $2.2 million, or $0.22 per share, down from $2.8 million in Q1 due to $1.9 million in merger-related expenses and a higher provision for credit losses. Core performance improved: net interest income rose 5.5% sequentially to $12.1 million, with net interest margin expanding to 3.22%. The merger with Farmers Bancorp closed on July 1, creating a larger franchise under the First Bank Midwest brand. The results reflect only legacy Richmond Mutual operations; Farmers Bancorp's contribution will first appear in Q3. The earnings release follows the 8-K filed earlier today and provides granular detail on the quarter's drivers, including loan growth and improved funding costs. The integration and combined entity's performance will be key to watch in the next quarter.
