CEO Commentary
“Hanmi delivered solid results in the fourth quarter, enabling us to finish 2025 with sustained momentum,” said Bonnie Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We generated robust earnings growth of 22% for the year, driven by continued net interest margin expansion, healthy loan growth, and disciplined expense and credit management. These consistent results underscore the effectiveness of our relationship-driven banking model.”
“Throughout the year, we advanced several key initiatives that further enhanced our growth and diversification strategy. Investments in banking talent drove a 36% increase in loan production. The composition of our loan portfolio continues to evolve with C&I and residential mortgage loans increasing 25% and 10% for the year, respectively. Our noninterest bearing demand deposits represent 30% of total deposits, reinforcing the stability of our customer base and our credit quality remains strong, with nonperforming loans representing 0.28% of total loans.”
“We are excited about the opportunities ahead in 2026 and beyond and believe we are well positioned to continue delivering on our growth strategy. Our balance sheet is strong, with ample liquidity and excellent capital ratios. We anticipate solid loan and deposit growth, further net interest margin expansion, well managed expenses and stable asset quality to drive consistent performance and long-term value for our shareholders in the coming year,” concluded Lee.
Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights:
- Net income was $21.2 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, down 3.7% from the third quarter, partially due to lower noninterest income of $1.6 million primarily related to a decrease in income on bank owned life insurance. Additionally, while noninterest expense increased $1.8 million due to higher salaries and professional fees, this was offset by an increase in net interest income of $1.8 million driven by lower cost of deposits.
- Net interest income continued to grow, increasing 2.9% from the prior quarter due to lower interest expense as the average rate on interest-bearing deposits declined 20 basis points. Although the yield on average loans declined by nine basis points, the average balance of loans increased 2%. This resulted in another quarter of net interest margin expansion (taxable equivalent) of six basis points to 3.28%.
- Return on average assets and return on average equity during the quarter were healthy at 1.07% and 10.14%, respectively.
- Asset quality remained strong as nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.26%, an improvement of one basis point from the prior quarter. Nonperforming loans to total loans was 0.28%, an improvement of two basis points from the prior quarter and credit loss expense was $1.9 million, compared to $2.1 million in the prior quarter.
- Loans receivable increased to $6.56 billion, up 0.5% from the end of the prior quarter. Loan production was $374.8 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.90% compared to the weighted average interest rate of 6.46% for payoffs.
- Deposits were $6.68 billion, down 1.3% from the prior quarter, however noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which demonstrate the stability of the customer base, represented 30.2% of total deposits.
- Hanmi's capital position remained strong with a ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets of 9.99% while the Company returned $10.1 million of capital to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends ($2.0 million in share repurchases and $8.1 million of dividends).

Results of Operations Net interest income for the fourth quarter increased $1.8 million, or 2.9%, to $62.9 million from $61.1 million for the third quarter, principally because of lower interest expense on interest-bearing deposits. Interest income on interest-earning assets was $105.1 million for the fourth quarter, down $0.1 million from the third quarter. Interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, however, declined $1.9 million from the previous quarter to $42.2 million because of a 20 basis point decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing deposits.
The average yield on loans for the fourth quarter was 5.94%, down nine basis points from the previous quarter; however, the average balance of loans increased 2.4% to $6.46 billion. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits was 3.36%, down 20 basis points from the third quarter as the average balance of interest-bearing deposits remained relatively unchanged with an increase of 0.2% to $4.71 billion.
For the fourth quarter, net interest margin (taxable-equivalent) was 3.28%, up six basis points from the third quarter. Lower yields on securities and interest-bearing deposits at other banks contributed to a six basis point decline in net interest margin while the improvement in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities provided a 12 basis point benefit. Net interest margin also benefited by approximately two basis points from an interest-recovery on a previously charged-off loan and loans returning to accrual status, while third quarter net interest margin benefited three basis points from similar activity.
On a full-year basis, net interest income in 2025 was $236.2 million, compared with $202.8 million for 2024, an increase of 16.5%, or $33.4 million. The increase reflects the benefit of lower market interest rates on interest-bearing deposits as well as growth in the average balance of loans. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits for 2025 was 3.56%, 60 basis points lower than the previous year, while the average balance increased 5.5% to $4.63 billion. The average balance of deposits increased 4.1% to $6.57 billion. Average loan yields for 2025, however, were 5.96%, and were not meaningfully affected by the changes in market interest rates. Average loans increased 3.1% to $6.30 billion.
Net interest margin (taxable-equivalent) for 2025 was 3.15% compared with 2.78% for 2024. The 37 basis point increase in the net interest margin primarily reflected the 35 basis point benefit of lower average rates on interest-bearing liabilities.

Credit loss expense for the fourth quarter was $1.9 million, compared with $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2025. Fourth quarter credit loss expense included $1.7 million for loan losses and $0.2 million for off-balance sheet items. Third quarter credit loss expense of $2.1 million included a $2.5 million credit loss expense for loan losses and a $0.4 million credit loss recovery for off-balance sheet items.
Credit loss expense was $14.4 million for 2025, compared with $4.4 million for 2024. The credit loss expense for 2025 included a $14.2 million credit loss expense for loan losses and a $0.2 million credit loss recovery for off-balance sheet items. 2024 credit loss expense included a $4.8 million credit loss expense for loans and a $0.4 million credit loss recovery for off-balance sheet items. The increase for 2025 primarily reflects an $8.6 million charge-off of a syndicated commercial real estate office loan during the second quarter of 2025.
Noninterest income was $8.3 million for the fourth quarter, down $1.6 million, or 16.0%, from the third quarter. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of $0.9 million of death benefit claims from bank-owned life insurance policies and a $0.6 million decline in gain on the sale of residential mortgage loans. Gain on sale of SBA loans was $1.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared with $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2025. The volume of SBA loans sold for the fourth quarter decreased to $29.9 million from $32.6 million for the third quarter of 2025, while trade premiums were 7.40% for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with 6.95% for the third quarter.
Noninterest income was $34.0 million for the full year of 2025, an increase of $2.4 million, or 7.6%, from $31.6 million for 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $1.7 million increase in gain on the sale of SBA loans, a $1.0 million increase in bank-owned life insurance income from death benefit claims, and a $0.8 million increase in trade finance and other service charges and fees. These items were partially offset by the absence of the $0.9 million gain on sale of a bank branch in 2024. The volume of SBA loans sold for 2025 increased to $130.0 million from $93.7 million for 2024, while trade premiums decreased to 7.45% for 2025, from 8.18% for 2024.

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter, before other-real-estate-owned and repossessed personal property expenses, increased 3.5% to $38.6 million from $37.3 million because of seasonally higher advertising and promotion expense, as well as an increase in personnel and higher professional fees and data processing expenses. Other-real-estate-owned expense included the first full quarter of operating expenses, as well as $0.3 million of past-due property taxes, for a hospitality property. The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter was 54.95%, compared with 52.65% for the third quarter of 2025.
Noninterest expense increased by $6.5 million, or 4.6%, to $147.8 million for the full year of 2025 from $141.3 million for 2024. The increase reflected a $4.3 million increase in salaries and benefits due to merit increases and investment in new talent, the absence of a $1.6 million gain from the 2024 sale of other-real-estate-owned, an increase of $1.0 million in other operating expenses for higher loan-related and deposit-related expenses, and an increase of $0.6 million in data processing expense. Partially offsetting this increase was lower repossessed personal property expense of $0.9 million. The efficiency ratio for full-year 2025 decreased to 54.71%, from 60.31% for 2024.

Hanmi recorded a provision for income taxes of $8.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared with $9.4 million for the third quarter of 2025, representing effective tax rates of 29.5% and 29.9%, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the provision for income taxes was $31.8 million and $26.4 million, representing effective tax rates of 29.5% and 29.8%, respectively.
Financial Position Total assets at December 31, 2025, were $7.87 billion, a 0.2% increase from $7.86 billion at September 30, 2025. This increase was primarily due to a $35.1 million, or 0.5% increase in loans receivable, before the allowance for credit losses, which was partially offset by a $24.1 million decrease in securities available for sale.

Asset Quality Loans 30 to 89 days past due and still accruing were 0.27% of loans at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025, compared with 0.18% at the end of the prior quarter and 0.30% at the end of the prior year.
Criticized loans totaled $97.0 million, or 1.48% of loans at December 31, 2025, up from $45.4 million, or 0.69% of loans at the end of the prior quarter. At December 31, 2024, criticized loans were $165.3 million, or 2.64% of loans. The fourth quarter change included a $54.3 million increase in special mention loans, offset by a $2.7 million decrease in classified loans. The increase in special mention loans was driven by $56.4 million in downgrades of pass-rated loans which included a $55.0 million hospitality loan, offset by $1.9 million in upgrades and $0.2 million in paydowns. The decrease in classified loans included $2.7 million of charge-offs, $2.3 million of paydowns and payoffs, and $0.7 million in upgrades, partially offset by $3.0 million of downgrades into the classified category. Of the $2.7 million in charge-offs, $1.9 million were equipment finance agreements. Of the $3.0 million in downgrades into the classified category, $1.9 million were equipment finance agreements.
Nonperforming loans were $18.1 million, or 0.28% of loans at December 31, 2025, down from $19.4 million, or 0.30% at the end of the prior quarter. At the end of last year, nonperforming loans were 0.23% of loans. The $1.3 million fourth quarter decrease reflected $2.2 million of charge-offs, $1.9 million of payoffs and paydowns, and $0.7 million of loans that were upgraded to performing loans. Of the $2.2 million of charge-offs, $1.9 million were equipment finance agreements. These declines were partially offset by $3.6 million of additions resulting from loans downgraded to non-performing status, of which $1.9 million were equipment financing agreements.
Nonperforming assets were $20.1 million at December 31, 2025, down from $21.4 million at the end of the prior quarter, which reflected the decrease in nonperforming loans. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.26% at December 31, 2025, 0.27% at September 30, 2025, and 0.19% at December 31, 2024.
Gross charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $2.9 million, compared with $2.6 million for the preceding quarter.

Recoveries of previously charged-off loans were $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, which included a $0.6 million recovery on a previously charged-off commercial line of credit and $0.6 million of recoveries on equipment financing agreements. As a result, there were $1.6 million of net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2025, or 0.10% of average loans annualized, compared to net recoveries of $0.5 million, or -0.03% for the prior quarter. For the 2025-year, net charge-offs were 0.23% of average loans compared with 0.07% for the prior year.
The allowance for credit losses was $69.9 million at December 31, 2025, compared with $69.8 million at September 30, 2025.

The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to loans was 1.07% at both December 31, 2025, and September 30, 2025. The ratio was 1.12% at year-end 2024.

Tangible common equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Hanmi.

Preprovision Net Revenue
Preprovision net revenue is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP measure is used by management to measure Hanmi’s core operational performance, excluding the impact of provisions for loan losses. By isolating preprovision net revenue, management can better understand the Company’s profitability and make more informed strategic decisions. Preprovision net revenue is calculated adding income tax expense and credit loss expense to net income. Management believes this financial measure highlights the Company's net revenue activities and operational efficiency, excluding unpredictable credit loss expense.
