Columbia Banking System, Inc., headquartered in Tacoma, Washington, operates as a regional bank providing a range of financial services including commercial and retail banking, SBA lending, and wealth management across the western United States. In its second quarter of 2025, Columbia Banking System reported a net income of $152 million, reflecting a significant increase from the previous quarter. The company also saw an improvement in its net interest margin, which rose to 3.75%, driven by higher interest income from loans and securities. Despite a slight decrease in non-interest income, the bank managed to reduce its non-interest expenses by $62 million, primarily due to the absence of a legal settlement and severance expenses incurred in the first quarter. The bank’s credit quality remained stable with non-performing assets unchanged at 0.35% of total assets. Looking ahead, Columbia Banking System remains focused on enhancing profitability and optimizing its balance sheet while preparing for the completion of its acquisition of Pacific Premier Bancorp, expected in September 2025.
