BANCFIRST CORPORATION REPORTS SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS
OKLAHOMA CITY, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BancFirst Corporation (NASDAQ GS:BANF) reported net income of $62.3 million, or $1.85 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $50.6 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024.
The Company's net interest income for the three-months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $121.3 million compared to $109.9 million for the same period in 2024. Higher loan volume along with general growth in earning assets were the primary drivers of the change in net interest income. Net interest margin was virtually unchanged at 3.75% for the second quarter of 2025 and 3.76% for the second quarter of 2024. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2024.
Noninterest income for the quarter totaled $48.0 million compared to $43.9 million last year. Trust revenue, treasury income, sweep fees insurance commissions, and other noninterest income each increased when compared to second quarter last year. The increase in other noninterest income was driven by changes in cash surrender value of life insurance as well as gains on disposal of other assets. The increases were partially offset by losses on equity securities in the second quarter of 2025.
Noninterest expense grew to $88.2 million for the quarter-ended June 30, 2025 compared to $85.3 million in the same quarter in 2024. The increase in noninterest expenses were primarily due to growth in salaries and employee benefits of $3.2 million, an increase in occupancy expense of $804,000 and an increase in the net expense from other real estate owned of $1.3 million. These overall increases in noninterest expense were partially offset by a decrease in other noninterest expense.
At June 30, 2025, the Company's total assets were $14.0 billion, an increase of $491.5 million from December 31, 2024. Loans grew $91.3 million from December 31, 2024, totaling $8.1 billion at June 30, 2025. Deposits totaled $12.1 billion, an increase of $337.6 million from year-end 2024. Sweep accounts totaled $5.3 billion at June 30, 2025, up $66.8 million from December 31, 2024. The Company's total stockholders' equity was $1.7 billion, an increase of $106.9 million from the end of 2024.
Nonaccrual loans totaled $49.9 million, representing 0.61% of total loans at June 30, 2025, down slightly from 0.72% at year-end 2024. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.19% at June 30, 2025, down from 1.24% at December 31, 2024. Net charge-offs were $4.7 million for the quarter, including $3.7 million relating to one real estate loan that was taken into other real estate, compared to $999,000 for the second quarter last year.
BancFirst Corporation CEO David Harlow commented, "The Company reported a strong quarter, albeit impacted by one-time events that had an approximate $0.05 per diluted share effect. We anticipate closing the recently-announced American Bank of Oklahoma acquisition in the 3rd quarter adding the Collinsville and Skiatook communities to the 59 communities we currently serve across the State of Oklahoma. The Fed continues a wait and see approach to short-term rates and we believe the Company is in a well-balanced position should the Fed decide to lower rates in the back half of the year. While recent economic data and performance has been encouraging, the longer-term outlook continues to be clouded by both the ongoing evolution of global trade policy and continued geopolitical risks. The ultimate impact on our region and customer base remains uncertain in our view, thus we continue to maintain a healthy loan loss reserve as a percentage of loans."
