Landmark Bancorp, Inc. reported its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2026, showing a net earnings increase of 22.4% to $5.4 million for the quarter, compared to $4.4 million in the same period last year. For the first six months, net earnings rose 14.9% to $10.5 million from $9.1 million in 2025. The growth in earnings was primarily attributed to an increase in net interest income, driven by higher average loan balances and reduced interest expenses due to lower short-term interest rates.
Total interest income for the second quarter of 2026 was $20.3 million, a slight increase of 0.8% from the previous year. Interest income from loans decreased marginally to $17.1 million, while interest income from investment securities rose to $3.1 million, reflecting improved yields. The company’s interest expense also decreased significantly, falling to $5.2 million from $6.4 million in the prior year, contributing to a net interest income of $15.1 million, up 10.2% year-over-year.
In terms of operational metrics, Landmark Bancorp's total assets remained stable at approximately $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2026. However, total deposits decreased by 6.0% to $1.3 billion, primarily due to a reduction in brokered deposits and seasonal declines in public fund accounts. The company reported a slight increase in its allowance for credit losses, which stood at $12.7 million, or 1.15% of gross loans, reflecting ongoing economic conditions and the performance of its loan portfolio.
Strategically, Landmark Bancorp continues to focus on expanding its commercial and agricultural loan portfolios while maintaining a conservative approach to risk management. The company has also declared its 100th consecutive quarterly dividend, reflecting its commitment to returning value to shareholders. Looking ahead, Landmark Bancorp anticipates continued profitability, although it remains cautious about potential economic headwinds that could impact its operations and asset quality. The company is well-capitalized, meeting all regulatory capital requirements, which positions it favorably for future growth.
