Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. Announces Record Quarterly Net Income for Second Quarter 2025

  • Record quarterly net income of $36 million for second quarter 2025, compared to net income of $33 million in prior quarter, and net income of $29 million for second quarter 2024
  • Quarterly return on average assets of 1.62%, the highest level since the March 2023 balance sheet restructuring
  • Quarterly net interest margin of 3.72%, an increase of 14 bps over the first quarter
  • Solid quarter-over-quarter loan growth of $94 million (5.6% annualized) and core deposit growth of $68 million (4.1% annualized)
  • Repurchased 257,402 common shares for $30 million during second quarter 2025

Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. (NYSE: NIC) (“Nicolet”) announced record quarterly net income of $36 million for second quarter 2025 and earnings per diluted common share of $2.34, compared to net income of $33 million and earnings per diluted common share of $2.08 for first quarter 2025, and net income of $29 million and earnings per diluted common share of $1.92 for second quarter 2024.

“Our quarterly results again demonstrated strong performance and continued consistency in a volatile market,” said Mike Daniels, Chairman, President, and CEO of Nicolet. “What we saw in the second quarter is a testament to the tenacity and vibrancy of our customers and the markets we serve. Loan growth continued at a healthy pace, as did core deposits. Mortgage revenues also saw their seasonal growth return, driven by housing demand in the upper Midwest. Our net interest margin continued to grow at a healthy pace as rates remained stable, and our profitability metrics are likely to place us near the top decile of community banks. Overall, it was a very solid quarter for us.”

“These results aren’t happening because of one or two big things, but rather a thousand little things done by nearly a thousand people who show up each day and matter to their customers and communities,” Daniels continued. “I am impressed but not surprised by our mid-year results. Our people truly embrace the challenge of finding a way to make a meaningful impact. We remain focused at all levels of Nicolet to keep this momentum going and continue to create shared success for our customers, communities, shareholders, and each other.”

Balance Sheet Review

At June 30, 2025, period end assets were $8.9 billion, a decrease of $44 million from March 31, 2025, mostly from lower cash balances. Total loans increased $94 million from March 31, 2025 (mostly in commercial-based loans), while total deposits of $7.5 billion at June 30, 2025, decreased $31 million from March 31, 2025, including a $99 million decrease in brokered deposits partly offset by a $68 million increase in customer (core) deposits. Long-term borrowings decreased $22 million from the prior quarter due to the redemption of a subordinated note issuance. Total capital was $1.2 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $7 million over March 31, 2025, with solid earnings and favorable movements in the securities portfolio market valuation partly offset by common stock repurchases and the quarterly common stock dividend.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets were $29 million and represented 0.32% of total assets at June 30, 2025, down slightly from 0.33% of total assets at March 31, 2025 and 0.34% of total assets at June 30, 2024. The allowance for credit losses-loans was $68 million and represented 1.00% of total loans at June 30, 2025, compared to $67 million (or 1.00% of total loans) at March 31, 2025, and $65 million (or 1.00% of total loans) at June 30, 2024. Asset quality trends remain solid and loan net charge-offs were negligible.

Income Statement Review - Quarter

Net income was $36 million for second quarter 2025, compared to net income of $33 million for first quarter 2025.

Net interest income was $75 million for second quarter 2025, $4 million higher than first quarter 2025, primarily due to solid loan growth. Interest income increased $5 million between the sequential quarters, while interest expense increased $1 million. The net interest margin for second quarter 2025 was 3.72%, up 14 bps from 3.58% for first quarter 2025. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 15 bps (to 5.82%), while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for second quarter 2025 increased 3 bps (to 2.86%).

Noninterest income of $21 million for second quarter 2025 increased $2 million from first quarter 2025, mostly due to seasonal improvements in net mortgage income and favorable market valuations on the nonqualified deferred compensation plan assets. Wealth income decreased $0.2 million, while card interchange income increased $0.4 million.

Noninterest expense of $50 million for second quarter 2025 increased $2 million from first quarter 2025. Personnel expense increased $3 million from higher incentives (commensurate with solid quarterly earnings) and higher market valuations on the nonqualified deferred compensation plan liabilities, while non-personnel related expenses combined decreased $1 million (mostly lower marketing).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted common share, tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible common equity, and tangible common equity to tangible assets. Management believes such measures to be helpful to management, investors and others in understanding Nicolet’s results of operations and financial position. When non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measures, as well as the reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the GAAP financial measures, are provided. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)” below. The non-GAAP net income measure and related reconciliation provide information useful to investors in understanding the operating performance and trends of Nicolet and also aid investors in comparing Nicolet’s financial performance to the financial performance of peer banks. Management considers non-GAAP financial ratios to be critical metrics with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strengths. While non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

* During fourth quarter 2024, Nicolet changed the annualization methodology utilized for the calculation of selected net interest margin components from actual/360 to actual/actual to be more consistent with the methodology typically used by peer banks and to cause quarterly results to be more consistent with annual results. Prior periods have been restated for this change in methodology. There was no change to the reported average balances or interest recognized.

* During fourth quarter 2024, Nicolet changed the annualization methodology utilized for the calculation of selected net interest margin components from actual/360 to actual/actual to be more consistent with the methodology typically used by peer banks and to cause quarterly results to be more consistent with annual results. Prior periods have been restated for this change in methodology. There was no change to the reported average balances or interest recognized.

(1)

 

Nonaccrual loans and loans held for sale are included in the daily average loan balances outstanding.

(2)

 

The yield on tax-exempt loans and tax-exempt investment securities is computed on a tax-equivalent basis using a federal tax rate of 21%, and adjusted for the disallowance of interest expense.

(3)

 

Loan purchase accounting accretion and Loan nonaccrual interest included in Total loans interest above, and the related impact to net interest margin.
