In terms of asset management, total assets rose to $15.67 billion as of September 30, 2025, an increase of $512.6 million, or 3.38%, from the end of 2024.

CVB Financial Corp. has also made strategic moves in its capital management, with total equity increasing to $2.28 billion, up $95.8 million from the previous year. This increase was bolstered by net earnings and a rise in other comprehensive income, despite $83.1 million in cash dividends paid out. The company repurchased 2.36 million shares under its stock repurchase program, which has a remaining capacity of 7.64 million shares. The capital ratios remain strong, with a common equity Tier 1 ratio of 16.33%, well above the regulatory minimum.

Operationally, the company has maintained a focus on managing its noninterest expenses, which totaled $58.6 million for the third quarter, a slight decrease from the previous year. The efficiency ratio improved to 45.56%, indicating better cost management relative to revenue. Noninterest income for the quarter was $13.0 million, slightly higher than the previous year, despite a loss on the sale of available-for-sale securities. The company continues to monitor economic conditions and credit quality closely, with nonperforming loans remaining stable at 0.33% of total loans.

Looking ahead, CVB Financial Corp. anticipates continued challenges in the economic landscape, including potential impacts from interest rate fluctuations and market conditions. The company remains committed to its strategic objectives, focusing on maintaining strong capital ratios and managing its asset quality effectively. The management's outlook suggests a cautious but optimistic approach to navigating the evolving financial environment.
