TOANO, Va., July 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation) (NASDAQ: CFFI), the holding company for C&F Bank, today reported consolidated net income of $8.6 million for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 11.1 percent, compared to $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. The Corporation reported consolidated net income of $15.4 million for the first six months of 2026, an increase of 17.2 percent, compared to $13.2 million for the first six months of 2025.

Included in net income for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 were the effects of the sale of an equity interest in Bearing Insurance Group, LLC (the “Bearing equity interest”), resulting in a pre-tax gain of $8.3 million, and a securities portfolio restructuring (the “Portfolio Restructuring”), which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $7.1 million. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, increased $116,000, or 1.5 percent, and $1.5 million, or 11.5 percent, for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2025, which excludes the effects of the items mentioned above. The following table presents selected financial performance highlights for the periods indicated:

¹		The Corporation uses non-GAAP measures of financial performance, including adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted annualized ROA, adjusted annualized ROE, annualized ROTCE and adjusted annualized ROTCE, to provide meaningful information about operating performance to investors by excluding the effects of certain items that management does not expect to have an ongoing impact on consolidated net income. Each of the non-GAAP measures listed in the prior sentence, for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, exclude the effects of the sale of the Bearing equity interest and the Portfolio Restructuring. For more information about these non-GAAP financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), please see “Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” below.

“We are pleased with our second quarter results,” said Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation. “Strong loan growth in our community banking segment, increased mortgage originations in our mortgage banking segment, and margin expansion contributed to solid adjusted earnings for the quarter and first half of the year. In addition, our strategic initiatives to expand our geographic footprint into Southwest Virginia and restructure our securities portfolio are already generating positive results, and we expect these initiatives to continue supporting our performance over time.”

Key highlights for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 are as follows.

Community banking segment loans grew $65.9 million, or 8.3 percent annualized, and $125.9 million, or 8.2 percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively;
Consumer finance segment loans decreased $7.7 million, or 3.3 percent annualized, and $4.8 million, or 1.0 percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively;
Deposits increased $19.6 million, or 1.7 percent annualized, and $109.0 million, or 4.8 percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively. A portion of the increases in deposits compared to June 30, 2025 was due to the wind-down of the repurchase agreement program with certain commercial deposit customers during the third quarter of 2025. The balance of these repurchase agreements was $20.6 million at June 30, 2025;
Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.41 percent for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 4.27 percent for the second quarter of 2025 and 4.27 percent for the first quarter of 2026;
The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 2.21 percent and 2.60 percent of average total loans for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to 2.19 percent and 2.42 percent for the same periods of 2025 and 2.98 percent for the first quarter of 2026;
Mortgage banking segment loan originations increased $20.2 million, or 9.5 percent, to $233.7 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025;
During the second quarter of 2026, the community banking segment completed the sale of its membership interest in Bearing, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $8.3 million. Following the sale of Bearing, the community banking segment executed a strategic restructuring of a portion of its securities portfolio, resulting in a pre-tax loss of $7.1 million. The community banking segment sold securities with a book value of $72.6 million and purchased approximately $67.8 million of securities;
Following the 2025 opening of a loan production office in Roanoke, the community banking segment continued its growth in Southwest Virginia with the opening of a retail branch in Roanoke; and
The Corporation continued its expansion into the western part of Virginia with the July 2026 announcement of the hiring of a veteran lender in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Community Banking Segment. The community banking segment reported net income of $8.2 million and $15.3 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to $7.1 million and $12.6 million for the same periods of 2025 due primarily to:

higher interest income resulting from higher average balances of loans, securities and cash reserves and higher average interest rates on securities; and
a pre-tax gain of $8.3 million on the sale of the Bearing equity interest in the second quarter of 2026, reported in investment income from other equity interests;

partially offset by:

higher salaries and employee benefits due primarily to the addition of a seasoned lending team with the expansion into Southwest Virginia in the third quarter of 2025, annual compensation adjustments, and increased employee incentive accruals associated with improved financial performance;
a strategic restructuring of a portion of its securities portfolio in the second quarter of 2026, which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $7.1 million, reported in net loss on sales of available for sale securities; and
higher provision for losses due primarily to the reversal of a specific reserve in the second quarter of 2025 upon the resolution of a nonperforming commercial real estate loan.

Adjusted net income for the community banking segment, which excludes the effects of the sale of the Bearing equity interest and the Portfolio Restructuring, was $7.4 million and $14.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to $7.1 million and $12.6 million for the same periods in 2025. Adjusted net income for the community banking segment increased $314,000 and $2.0 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025 due primarily to the items discussed above.

Average loans increased $132.2 million, or 8.8 percent, for the second quarter of 2026 and increased $133.7 million, or 9.0 percent, for the first six months of 2026 compared to the same periods of 2025 due primarily to growth in the commercial real estate and land acquisition and development segments of the loan portfolio. Average deposits increased $149.4 million, or 6.7 percent, for the second quarter of 2026 and increased $164.9 million, or 7.5 percent, for the first six months of 2026 compared to the same periods of 2025 due primarily to higher balances of time deposits and savings and money market deposits. A portion of the increase in average deposits was due to the wind-down of the repurchase agreement program with certain commercial deposit customers during the third quarter of 2025. The average balance of those repurchase agreements was $23.9 million during the second quarter of 2025.

Average interest-earning asset yields were higher for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 compared to the same periods of 2025 due primarily to higher average interest rates on securities available for sale. In the Portfolio Restructuring, the community banking segment sold $72.6 million in book value of securities with a weighted average yield of 1.40% and representing approximately 14.7% of the entire securities portfolio, and purchased approximately $67.8 million of securities with a weighted average yield of 4.70%. Average costs of interest-bearing deposits were lower for the second quarter and the first six months of 2026 compared to the same periods of 2025 due primarily to a decrease in average interest rates paid on time deposits.

The community banking segment’s nonaccrual loans were $1.2 million at June 30, 2026 and $1.1 million at December 31, 2025. The community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $150,000 and $450,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to net reversals of provision for credit losses of $300,000 and $200,000 for the same periods of 2025. At June 30, 2026 the allowance for credit losses was $17.6 million compared to $17.4 million at December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.06 percent at June 30, 2026 from 1.10 percent at December 31, 2025 due primarily to changes in the forecast of key credit loss model assumptions, which includes the forecast of the national unemployment rate derived from the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected.

Mortgage Banking Segment. The mortgage banking segment reported net income of $1.1 million and $2.0 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to $985,000 and $1.4 million for the same periods of 2025 due primarily to:

higher gains on sales of loans and higher mortgage banking fee income due to higher volume of mortgage loan originations; and
higher mortgage lender services fee income;

partially offset by:

higher variable expenses tied to mortgage loan origination volume such as commissions and bonuses, reported in salaries and employee benefits, and higher loan processing and collection expenses.

Mortgage banking segment loan originations increased 9.5 percent and 26.3 percent for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2025 as the mortgage interest rate environment was generally more favorable during the 2026 periods than the comparable periods of 2025, which led to an increase in both purchases and refinancings. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $233.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, comprised of $209.3 million home purchases and $24.4 million refinancings, compared to $213.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, comprised of $197.2 million home purchases and $16.3 million refinancings. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $413.3 million for the first six months of 2026, comprised of $351.8 million home purchases and $61.5 million refinancings, compared to $327.3 million for the first six months of 2025, comprised of $298.9 million home purchases and $28.4 million refinancings. Mortgage loan segment originations include originations of loans sold to the community banking segment, at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals.

Through the Lender Solutions division of the mortgage banking segment, mortgage lender services fee income is derived from providing mortgage origination functions to third-party mortgage lenders for a fee. Mortgage lender services fee income increased to $969,000 and $1.8 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to $762,000 and $1.3 million for the same periods of 2025 due primarily to increased mortgage loan volume in the industry.

During the second quarter and first six months of 2026, the mortgage banking segment recorded net reversals of provision for indemnification losses of $25,000 and $60,000, respectively, compared to net reversals of provision for indemnification losses of $35,000 and $60,000 in the same periods of 2025. The allowance for indemnifications was $1.1 million and $1.2 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Management believes that the indemnification reserve is sufficient to absorb losses related to loans that have been sold in the secondary market.

Consumer Finance Segment. The consumer finance segment reported net income of $538,000 and $457,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to net income of $539,000 and $765,000 for the same periods of 2025 due primarily to:

higher provision for credit losses due primarily to higher net charge-offs;

partially offset by:

lower interest expense allocation on borrowings from the community banking segment as a result of lower average interest rates;

Average loans decreased $4.7 million, or 1.0 percent, for the second quarter of 2026 and decreased $2.9 million, or less than one percent, for the first six months of 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025 due primarily to a decrease in marine and recreational vehicle loans as the third party administrator of that program significantly decreased sales of those loans to outside parties during 2025, which led to the consumer finance segment ending future purchases under the program during the third quarter of 2025. The marine and recreational vehicle portfolio is expected to run off over time, subject to normal repayment activity and credit performance. The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 2.60 percent of average total loans for the first six months of 2026 compared to 2.42 percent for the first six months of 2025 due primarily to a mix shift in the portfolio as the marine and recreational vehicle loans balance continued to decrease. At June 30, 2026, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 3.56 percent compared to 4.38 percent at December 31, 2025 and 3.81 percent at June 30, 2025.

The consumer finance segment, at times, offers payment deferrals as a portfolio management technique to achieve higher ultimate cash collections on select loan accounts. Average amounts of payment deferrals of automobile loans on a monthly basis, which are not included in delinquent loans, were 1.40 percent and 1.37 percent of average automobile loans outstanding during the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, compared to 1.73 percent and 1.74 percent during the same periods of 2025 and 1.34 percent during the first quarter of 2026.

The allowance for credit losses was $22.1 million, or 4.83 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2026 compared to $22.3 million, or 4.79 percent of total loans, at December 31, 2025. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. If loan performance deteriorates resulting in further elevated delinquencies or net charge-offs, the provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

Liquidity. The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Uninsured deposits represent an estimate of amounts above the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance coverage limit of $250,000. As of June 30, 2026, the Corporation’s uninsured deposits were approximately $726.4 million, or 30.7 percent of total deposits. Excluding intercompany cash holdings and municipal deposits, which are secured with pledged securities, amounts uninsured were approximately $560.9 million, or 23.7 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2026. The Corporation’s liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, were $401.9 million and borrowing availability was $669.8 million as of June 30, 2026, which in total exceed uninsured deposits, excluding intercompany cash holdings and secured municipal deposits, by $510.8 million as of June 30, 2026.

In addition to deposits, the Corporation utilizes short-term and long-term borrowings as sources of funds. Short-term borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) may be used to fund the Corporation’s day-to-day operations. Total borrowings increased to $118.2 million at June 30, 2026 from $113.3 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to an increase in FHLB advances during the first six months of 2026 that were used to help fund loan growth.

Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities, the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit and the capacity to borrow additional funds.

Capital and Dividends. During the second quarter of 2026, the Corporation declared a quarterly cash dividend of 48 cents per share. This dividend, which was paid to shareholders on July 1, 2026, represents a payout ratio of 18.3 percent of earnings per share for the second quarter of 2026. The Board of Directors of the Corporation continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital levels and requirements, and expected future earnings.

Total consolidated equity increased $16.0 million at June 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 due primarily to net income and lower unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale, which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income, partially offset by dividends paid on the Corporation’s common stock. The Corporation’s securities available for sale are fixed income debt securities and their unrealized loss position is a result of increased market interest rates since they were purchased. The Corporation expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest. Unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Corporation or C&F Bank. The accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Corporation’s securities available for sale, net of deferred income taxes, decreased to $6.7 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $10.2 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to the Portfolio Restructuring in the second quarter of 2026.

As of June 30, 2026, C&F Bank was categorized as well capitalized under the FDIC’s regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized under regulations applicable at June 30, 2026, C&F Bank was required to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, CET1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios. In addition to the regulatory risk-based capital requirements, C&F Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of additional capital of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets as required by the Basel III capital rules. The Corporation and C&F Bank exceeded these ratios at June 30, 2026. For additional information, see “Capital Ratios” below. The above mentioned ratios are not impacted by unrealized losses on securities available for sale. In the event that all of these unrealized losses become realized into earnings, the Corporation and C&F Bank would both continue to exceed minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, and be considered well capitalized.

The Corporation has a share repurchase program, effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, that was authorized by the Board of Directors to repurchase up to $5.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock (the 2026 Repurchase Program). During the second quarter of 2026, the Corporation repurchased 4,095 shares, or $312,000 of its common stock under the 2026 Repurchase Program.

About C&F Financial Corporation. The Corporation’s common stock is listed for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol CFFI. The common stock closed at a price of $78.12 per share on July 22, 2026. At June 30, 2026, the book value per share of the Corporation was $85.46 and the tangible book value per share was $77.45. For more information about the Corporation’s tangible book value per share, which is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, please see “Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” below.

Additional information regarding the Corporation’s products and services, as well as access to its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), are available on the Corporation’s website at http://www.cffc.com.

Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average equity, net tangible income attributable to the Corporation, return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), adjusted ROTCE, tangible book value per share, price to tangible book value ratio, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest and fees on loans-FTE, interest and dividends on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more important than, GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below in the “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income” and “Tangible Book Value Per Share” tables.
