Guaranty Bank's parent company posted a decrease in third-quarter net income.
Moline, Illinois-based QCR Holdings Inc.'s (Nasdaq: QCRH) profits were $25.1 million, a 14.3% drop from $29.3 million in the same three-month period a year earlier, according to a news release. Diluted earnings per share dipped to $1.49 from $1.71 per share year over year.
Still, company officials were bullish about the quarterly report.
“We delivered solid third-quarter results, highlighted by a static net interest margin, robust loan growth and significant fee income,” said Larry Helling, CEO of QCR Holdings, in the release. "Our third-quarter and year-to-date results demonstrate the continued strength of our franchise, our commitment to relationship banking and the successful execution of our strategic initiatives.”
As of Sept. 30, Guaranty Bank's assets were $2.2 billion and deposits were $1.7 billion. QCR, which also operates Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust, Community State Bank and Quad City Bank and Trust, had assets of $8.5 billion and deposits of $6.5 billion at the end of the quarter.
