WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESS Newswire / October 29, 2025 / National Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:NACB), the holding company for The National Capital Bank of Washington ("NCB" or the "Bank"), reported net income of $1,787,000, or $1.55 per common share, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $1,726,000, or $1.50 per common share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $5,374,000, or $4.67 per common share, compared to $4,416,000, or $3.84 per common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Earnings per share, cash dividends per share and average shares outstanding have been adjusted to reflect the November 2024 4:1 stock split paid in the form of a stock dividend. The increase in year-to-date earnings was primarily attributable to higher net interest income driven by continued net interest margin expansion. While strong revenue growth aided the financial performance for the third quarter of 2025, the quarter was negatively affected by an increase in provision for credit losses due to both significant quarterly loan growth as well as an increase in specific reserves on one borrower relationship.
