In the first quarter of 2025, Columbia Financial reported a significant turnaround with a net income of $8.9 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million in the same period last year. This improvement was driven by increased net interest income, reduced credit loss provisions, and decreased non-interest expenses. Key financial highlights include a 19.3% increase in net interest income to $50.3 million and a notable reduction in interest expenses due to strategic balance sheet repositioning. The company also saw a 1.3% increase in total assets, reaching $10.6 billion, with significant growth in loans and debt securities. Looking ahead, Columbia Financial remains focused on managing its balance sheet and controlling operating expenses, while continuing to invest in talent and systems to support future growth.
