BayCom Corp, the holding company for United Business Bank, operates in the financial services sector, offering a wide range of loans and deposit products primarily across California, Washington, New Mexico, Colorado, and Nevada. The company has announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024, reporting stable earnings amidst a challenging economic environment.
BayCom reported a net income of $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, showing a slight increase from the third quarter but a decrease from the same quarter last year. The company attributed these results to a decrease in noninterest income and an increase in noninterest expenses, although these were partially offset by a decline in provision for credit losses and income taxes.
Key financial highlights include an increase in net interest income by 3.1% from the previous quarter, driven by new lending activities and improved net interest margins. However, year-over-year comparisons showed a decline in annual net income by 13.9% due to reduced net interest income and noninterest income, despite declines in credit loss provisions and income tax provisions.
Looking ahead, BayCom’s management expressed optimism for 2025, anticipating continued demand for lending and improved bank valuations. The company plans to enhance shareholder value through strategic initiatives such as share repurchases and cash dividends while maintaining a focus on providing value to clients and shareholders.
