Southern Missouri Bancorp (NASDAQ: SMBC) has shown consistent revenue growth over the past several years, driven primarily by interest income on loans and leases as well as investment securities. The quarterly income statements reveal a steady increase in total interest income from around $28.3 million in Q3 2022 to approximately $69.4 million in Q2 2025. This demonstrates a strong core lending business.
Net interest income has also grown significantly, rising from about $25.1 million in Q3 2022 to $38.1 million by Q2 2025. This growth suggests effective control over interest expenses and expanding earning assets. The interest expense increased moderately but at a slower pace compared to interest income, enhancing net interest margin.
Non-interest income fluctuated but generally remained a smaller component relative to interest income, with items like trust fees, service charges, and investment banking income contributing consistently. Notably, net realized and unrealized capital gains have been volatile, occasionally affecting total non-interest income.
Operating expenses, including salaries, occupancy, equipment, and marketing, have increased moderately reflecting the bank’s expansion, but the growth in expenses appears controlled relative to revenue increases.
Across the quarterly reports, provision for credit losses remained relatively low compared to revenues, indicating good asset quality and manageable credit risk.
In terms of profitability, net income attributable to common shareholders grew from about $2.4 million in Q3 2023 to $14.6 million in Q2 2025. Earnings per share improved accordingly from $0.22 to $1.30 over this period, indicating solid shareholder value creation.
The balance sheet reveals a growing asset base, with total assets increasing from approximately $3.45 billion in Q2 2023 to nearly $4.91 billion in Q2 2025. A significant portion of assets remains in loans held for sale, which doubled from about $2.95 billion to $3.97 billion, suggesting growing loan origination and servicing activities.
Non-interest bearing deposits, a low-cost funding source, increased substantially from roughly $3.00 billion in Q2 2023 to over $4.21 billion in Q2 2025, positively impacting funding cost structure. Long-term debt levels slightly fluctuated but remained manageable, around $130 million in recent quarters.
Equity capital rose steadily from approximately $326 million in Q1 2023 to $512 million by Q2 2025, supporting asset growth and indicating retained earnings accumulation and capital management strength.
Cash flow statements show strong cash generation from operating activities, generally in the $10 million to $25 million range quarterly, supporting investments and financing activities. Investing activities frequently involve the purchase and sale of investment securities, with notable outflows in large acquisition periods and inflows from sale or maturity of securities.
