Riverview Bancorp reported fiscal Q4 2026 net loss of $8.0 million due to a strategic balance sheet optimization that generated a pre-tax loss of $11.4 million. Excluding this, net income was $656,000 for Q4. Net interest income and margin improved year-over-year, with a 25 basis points expected annual net interest margin increase from the optimization.

VANCOUVER, Wash., April 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) (“Riverview” or the “Company”) today reported net income excluding strategic balance sheet optimization (non-GAAP) of $656,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026. This compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025, and $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. For the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, net loss was $8.0 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, as reported, which included the strategic balance sheet optimization.

For fiscal 2026, net income excluding balance sheet optimization (non-GAAP) was $4.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to $4.9 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for fiscal 2025. For fiscal 2026, net loss was $4.3 million inclusive of the strategic balance sheet optimization. Net income on a pre-tax, pre-provision basis excluding the balance sheet optimization (non-GAAP) increased to $2.0 million for the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1.8 million in the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025, and $1.5 million in the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025.

On March 25, 2026, Riverview implemented a strategic balance sheet optimization that included the reclassification of its entire portfolio of held-to-maturity (“HTM”) securities to available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities. After the reclassification, Riverview sold $149.3 million in lower-yielding book value investment securities, with an average yield of 1.62%, for a pre-tax loss of $11.4 million. The sales generated $137.9 million of cash proceeds. A targeted approach was used to identify lower-yielding bonds, balancing the respective loss in relation to its book value. The goal was to minimize the loss while maximizing proceeds from the sale. Dependent upon the combination of the full redeployment of funds, Riverview expects the estimated earn-back will be less than 3.5 years. Once fully realized, the strategic optimization is expected to add approximately 25 basis points to net interest margin and approximately $0.13 to earnings per share annually.

“The repositioning of our securities portfolio represents a deliberate deployment of excess capital that we expect to meaningfully enhance net interest margin and strengthen long-term earnings power. That expansion is already underway, our loan pipeline remains strong, and profitability is positioned to improve, driven by disciplined growth in our commercial and business banking segments. We are capturing quality opportunities across our markets, and we are confident these combined efforts are building lasting value for our shareholders,” stated Nicole Sherman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are now into the second year of our three-year strategic plan, and the momentum is accelerating. The commercial and industrial lending pipeline continues to grow, business banking is gaining traction, and our treasury management platforms have expanded to fit our clients’ needs. Our focus remains disciplined and our direction is clear.”

Franchise Footprint

Riverview holds a unique distinction as the only bank headquartered in Vancouver, Washington — putting us at the heart of one of the Pacific Northwest's most exciting growth stories. Clark County has transformed into a formidable economic center, and Vancouver itself has become a genuine destination, earning the #3 spot on moveBuddha's 2026 Moving Forecast of Most Popular Cities to Move to. The region's economy is broad and resilient, spanning health care and social assistance, construction, manufacturing, and professional and business services. Job growth and household incomes are trending upward in line with statewide performance, and persistent housing demand continues to push median home values higher. With a quality of life that draws new residents and a local economy built on solid fundamentals, we see a clear runway for deepening our community lending relationships and growing our deposit base.

Northwest Oregon represents another market where Riverview has established a meaningful presence, one defined by economic depth and long-term stability. The area's economy draws strength from a well-balanced mix of technology, advanced manufacturing, and consumer goods: anchored by globally recognized employers like Intel, Nike, and Columbia Sportswear, whose activity ripples throughout a vibrant ecosystem of local and mid-sized businesses. Above-average median household incomes and strong home values signal meaningful consumer purchasing power and sustained wealth creation across the region. The business climate here continues to attract innovation-driven and sustainability-focused enterprises, supported by well-developed infrastructure, efficient transportation networks, and a quality of life that makes the region an appealing place to both live and operate. Together, these attributes give Riverview a solid platform for growth throughout Oregon.

Income Statement Review

Riverview’s net interest income was $10.2 million in the current quarter compared to $10.5 million in the preceding quarter, and $9.2 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. In fiscal 2026, net interest income increased by $4.0 million to $40.3 million, compared to $36.3 million in fiscal 2025. The yearly increase compared to fiscal 2025 was driven by higher interest earning asset yields due to higher origination rates on new loan growth as well as loan repricing.

Riverview’s NIM was 2.92% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 2.96% in the preceding quarter and a 27 basis-point increase compared to 2.65% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. “The absence of prepayment fees that had been recognized in the prior quarter caused the NIM to contract slightly during the current quarter. We remain focused on the actions within our control, which include improving our earning asset mix and managing funding costs to position Riverview for NIM growth going forward. We continue to drive stronger asset yields and optimizing our funding base, and we believe the steps we are taking today, including our recent balance sheet optimization, will support margin improvement in the quarters ahead,” said David Lam, EVP and Chief Financial Officer. In fiscal 2026, the net interest margin increased 32 basis points to 2.86% compared to 2.54% in the prior year.

As a result of the balance sheet optimization, investment securities decreased $146.8 million during the quarter to $154.8 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $301.6 million at December 31, 2025, and decreased $167.7 million compared to $322.5 million at March 31, 2025. The average securities balances for the quarters ended March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2025, were $301.7 million, $318.3 million, and $346.0 million, respectively. The weighted average yields on securities balances for the current quarter after the balance sheet optimization was 2.34% and the weighted average yields on securities balances for the current quarter before the balance sheet optimization was 1.84%. This compared to a weighted average yield of 1.77% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, and 1.84% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. There were $24.7 million of bonds purchased as part of the balance sheet optimization near the end of the fourth fiscal quarter with a weighted average yield of 4.95%. The duration of the investment portfolio at March 31, 2026, after the bond purchase, was approximately 6.0 years after the balance sheet optimization. The anticipated total investment cashflows over the next twelve months is approximately $16.7 million.

Riverview’s yield on loans was 5.12% during the fourth fiscal quarter, compared to 5.26% in the preceding quarter, and 4.91% in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. “Loan yields declined modestly compared to the prior quarter due to loan prepayment income received last quarter that was not present in the current quarter. Loan yields remain meaningfully higher than the same period a year ago, which reflects the progress we have made over time in pricing and portfolio mix,” said Mike Sventek, EVP and Chief Lending Officer. “We continue to advance our commercial lending strategy by growing our proportion of C&I relationship clients, which we believe positions the portfolio well for yield improvement as market conditions evolve.”

Deposit costs decreased to 1.37% during the fourth fiscal quarter compared to 1.39% in the preceding quarter as Riverview has been able to proactively manage its deposit costs. Deposit costs increased seven basis points compared to 1.30% in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago, which is reflective of both new customers demanding higher rates, and existing customers shifting to fully insured, higher-yielding products.

Following the $11.4 million loss on the sale of securities as a result of the previously mentioned balance sheet optimization, non-interest income (loss) was ($8.0 million) during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2026 compared to $3.5 million in the preceding quarter and $3.7 million in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025. Excluding the balance sheet optimization (non-GAAP), non-interest income for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2026 was $3.3 million. Non-interest income for the year, excluding the balance sheet optimization (non-GAAP), totaled $14.1 million, compared to $14.3 million in fiscal 2025.

Asset management fees were $1.6 million during both the fourth fiscal quarter and the preceding quarter, and $1.5 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. Riverview Trust Company’s assets under management were $908.1 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $919.1 million at December 31, 2025, and $877.9 million at March 31, 2025.

Non-interest expense decreased to $11.5 million during the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $12.2 million in the preceding quarter and increased modestly compared to $11.4 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. For the fiscal year, non-interest expense was $47.7 million compared to $44.3 million in fiscal 2025. “Operating costs improved compared to the prior quarter, though they remain elevated on a year-over-year basis as we have strategically expanded our business banking teams and filled key positions aligned with our growth objectives. We have also offset certain costs by bringing previously outsourced functions in-house, reducing reliance on external consultants. We are making meaningful progress on our digital roadmap — with digital account opening, enhanced in-branch experience, digital card issuance, instant issue debit cards, and fast payments all on track over the next twelve months. These investments are designed to expand our reach and deepen client relationships, and we expect costs to continue stabilizing as these initiatives come fully online,” said Dan Cox, EVP and Chief Operating Officer.

Balance Sheet Review

Total loans increased $7.4 million during the quarter to $1.08 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to three months earlier and increased $30.0 million compared to a year earlier. Riverview’s loan pipeline was $56.4 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $77.2 million at the end of the preceding quarter and $41.1 million at March 31, 2025. New loan originations during the quarter totaled $46.3 million, compared to $36.7 million in the preceding quarter and $49.4 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. Execution of the business model continues to yield results, with loans outstanding growing and the loan pipeline remaining strong heading into the new fiscal year.

Undisbursed construction loans totaled $23.7 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $17.4 million at December 31, 2025, with most of the undisbursed construction loans expected to be funded over the next several quarters. Undisbursed homeowner association loans for the purpose of common area maintenance and repairs totaled $29.9 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $30.6 million at December 31, 2025. Revolving commercial business loan commitments totaled $55.1 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $53.8 million at December 31, 2025. Utilization on these loans totaled 30.10% at March 31, 2026, compared to 26.13% at December 31, 2025. The weighted average rate on loan originations during the quarter was 6.31% compared to 6.86% in the preceding quarter.

Looking ahead, loan repricing and maturities for fiscal year 2027 total $95.1 million with a weighted average rate of 4.62%, fiscal year 2028 total $92.1 million with a weighted average rate of 5.41%, fiscal year 2029 total $111.1 million with a weighted average rate of 6.03%, and in aggregate for fiscal years after 2029 total $94.6 million with a weighted average rate of 5.87%.

The office building loan portfolio totaled $115.5 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $108.4 million at December 31, 2025. The average loan balance of the office building loan portfolio was $1.6 million with an average loan-to-value ratio of 53.97% and an average debt service coverage ratio of 1.65x at March 31, 2026. Office building loans within the Portland core consist of two loans totaling $20.1 million, which is approximately 17.4% of the total office building loan portfolio, or 1.8% of total loans.

Total deposits increased $20.7 million during the quarter to $1.25 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $1.23 billion at December 31, 2025, and increased $21.9 million compared to $1.23 billion a year ago. During the quarter, the deposit mix continued to shift with increases in non-interest checking accounts, money market deposit accounts, and CDs. Riverview also continued to see strong traction with its fully insured sweep product, which has become an increasingly important tool for attracting and retaining customer deposits. Non-interest checking and interest checking accounts, as a percentage of total deposits, totaled 48.6% at March 31, 2026, compared to 49.5% at December 31, 2025, and 48.7% at March 31, 2025.

FHLB advances decreased $44.4 million during the quarter to $16.1 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $60.5 million at December 31, 2025.

Primarily as a result of the balance sheet optimization, shareholders’ equity was $145.6 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $164.2 million three months earlier and $160.0 million one year earlier. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) was $5.76 at March 31, 2026, compared to $6.62 at December 31, 2025, and $6.33 at March 31, 2025. Riverview paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.02 per share on April 24, 2026, to shareholders of record on April 13, 2026.

Credit Quality

“Maintaining a strong loan portfolio remains our top priority, particularly as interest rate uncertainty and the overall economy continues to shape the environment,” said Robert Benke, EVP and Chief Credit Officer. “We did see an increase in nonperforming loans and net charge-offs during the quarter. This was driven by one hospitality borrower-specific circumstance rather than any broader weakness in that loan category. Overall credit quality metrics remain solid, and our team stays disciplined in monitoring trends and ensuring reserves reflect current conditions. Our lenders continue building the deep client relationships that give us early visibility and allow us to be a responsive partner to the businesses we serve.”

Non-performing loans totaled $7.8 million or 0.71% of total loans as of March 31, 2026, compared to $1.1 million, or 0.10% of total loans at December 31, 2025, and $155,000, or 0.01% of total loans at March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, non-performing assets were $7.8 million, or 0.53% of total assets.

Riverview recorded $1.1 million in net loan charge-offs for the current quarter. This compared to $246,000 in net loan charge-offs for the preceding quarter. Riverview recorded a $1.2 million provision for credit losses for the current quarter, compared to a $100,000 provision for the preceding quarter.

Classified assets were $12.7 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $13.5 million at December 31, 2025, and $2.9 million at March 31, 2025. The classified assets to total capital ratio was 7.3% at March 31, 2026, compared to 7.4% at December 31, 2025, and 1.6% a year earlier. The increase in classified assets compared to a year ago was primarily due to one lending relationship that was moved to classified assets during the first fiscal quarter of 2026 for which a plan is in place to either return to performing status or payoff.

The allowance for credit losses was $15.2 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $15.3 million at December 31, 2025, and $15.4 million at March 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses represented 1.40% of total loans at March 31, 2026, compared to 1.41% at December 31, 2025, and 1.45% a year earlier. The allowance for credit losses to loans, net of government guaranteed loans (non-GAAP), was 1.45% at March 31, 2026, compared to 1.47% at December 31, 2025, and 1.51% a year earlier.

Capital/Liquidity

Riverview continues to maintain strong capital levels in excess of the regulatory requirements to be categorized as “well capitalized” with a total risk-based capital ratio of 15.62% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.60% at March 31, 2026. Tangible common equity to average tangible assets ratio (non-GAAP) was 8.25% at March 31, 2026.

Riverview has approximately $593.7 million in available liquidity at March 31, 2026, including $268.0 million of borrowing capacity from the FHLB and $225.7 million from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”). At March 31, 2026, the Bank had $16.1 million in outstanding FHLB borrowings.

The uninsured deposit ratio was 28.2% at March 31, 2026. Available liquidity under the FRB borrowing line would cover 100% of the estimated uninsured deposits and available liquidity under both the FHLB and FRB borrowing lines would cover 139.4% of the estimated uninsured deposits.

Riverview is taking a strategic approach to the use of excess capital in the reinvestment of the proceeds from the investment securities sale. Riverview expects to continue to reinvest the proceeds into a combination of higher-yielding bonds, which will be classified as available-for-sale at the time of purchase, support loan originations, pay down its Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, or hold in cash. Deploying these funds into higher-yielding earning assets or paying down borrowings will inherently increase the net interest income of the Bank on a go-forward basis. Given Riverview’s strong capital levels, no additional capital was needed to support the balance sheet optimization.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Riverview's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below.

Risks

  • The strategic balance sheet optimization caused a significant one-time pre-tax loss impacting reported earnings and book value per share.
  • Increased non-performing loans and net charge-offs, mainly related to a specific hospitality borrower, could signal localized credit risks.
  • Market and economic uncertainties including interest rate fluctuations, potential regional economic slowdowns, and regulatory changes pose risks to credit quality and earnings.
