Q2 FY2026 EarningsFY26 Q2 results reflected the complex integration of the LINKBANCORP merger, with normalized metrics beating consensus while GAAP figures missed significantly due to transaction costs. Normalized EPS of $2.03 exceeded the $1.99 mean estimate, and Net Interest Margin (FTE) improved to 4.15% vs. 4.13% expected. However, GAAP EPS of $0.50 missed the $1.61 consensus by 68.9% due to $32.4M in pre-tax merger-related expenses, while revenue of $106.9M fell short of the $112.9B expected due to higher funding costs.
