Trustmark Corporation reported its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2026, showcasing a net income of $63.5 million, or $1.09 per share, compared to $55.8 million, or $0.92 per share, in the same period last year. For the six months ending June 30, 2026, net income reached $119.6 million, translating to $2.04 per share, up from $109.5 million, or $1.81 per share, in the prior year. The company’s return on average tangible equity improved to 14.08% from 13.13% year-over-year, while the return on average assets rose to 1.33% from 1.21%.

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $208.2 million, reflecting a 4.8% increase from $198.6 million in the same quarter of 2025. This growth was driven by a rise in both net interest income and noninterest income. Net interest income for the quarter was $165.6 million, a 4.3% increase from the previous year, while noninterest income totaled $42.6 million, up 6.7% year-over-year. The company’s interest expense decreased to $71.8 million, down 8.7% from the prior year, primarily due to lower costs associated with deposits and federal funds purchased.

Trustmark's loan portfolio, classified as loans held for investment (LHFI), increased to $13.913 billion as of June 30, 2026, marking a 1.7% rise from $13.674 billion at the end of 2025. The growth was mainly attributed to increases in commercial and industrial loans, which rose by 14.8%, while loans secured by real estate saw a decline. The company’s allowance for credit losses (ACL) on LHFI was $148.2 million, a decrease of 5.7% from the previous period, largely due to reserves released from the sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans.

In terms of operational metrics, Trustmark's total deposits reached $16.071 billion, an increase of 3.7% from $15.500 billion at the end of 2025. Noninterest-bearing deposits grew by 11.1%, indicating a strong core deposit base. The company also reported a significant reduction in nonperforming assets, which totaled $54.9 million, down 39.9% from the previous year, primarily due to the sale of nonaccrual loans. Trustmark's capital position remained solid, with a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 11.87%, exceeding regulatory requirements.

Looking ahead, Trustmark's management expressed confidence in the company's ability to navigate changing economic conditions, supported by a strong capital base and ongoing organic growth initiatives. The company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share, payable on September 15, 2026, reflecting its commitment to returning value to shareholders while maintaining a focus on strategic growth.
