In its first quarter of 2025, Ameris Bancorp reported a net income of $87.9 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, marking a significant increase from the previous year. The company also saw a 12.5% annualized growth in tangible book value per share, reaching $39.78, and an expansion in net interest margin to 3.73%. Additionally, noninterest-bearing deposits grew to 30.8% of total deposits, and the efficiency ratio improved to 52.83%. Despite a decrease in noninterest income, primarily due to reduced gains on SBA loan sales, Ameris maintained strong financial health with a TCE ratio of 10.78%. Looking forward, Ameris Bancorp remains focused on maintaining its strong core deposit base and operational efficiency, positioning itself for continued success in the Southeast markets.
