S&T Bancorp ( (STBA) ) has shared an update.

On January 22, 2026, S&T Bancorp reported fourth-quarter 2025 net income of $34.0 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, slightly below the prior quarter but above the year-earlier period, and full-year 2025 net income of $134.2 million, or $3.49 per diluted share, up from 2024. The bank delivered higher net interest income and an expanding net interest margin for both the quarter and the year, supported by loan growth of 4.52% annualized in the fourth quarter and 4.25% year over year, as well as steady deposit growth and lower funding costs in a declining rate environment. Asset quality metrics showed some pressure, with nonperforming assets rising to $55.6 million and net charge-offs increasing in both the quarter and full year, though management characterized NPAs as manageable and the allowance for credit losses remained robust at 1.15% of total portfolio loans. S&T also continued returning capital to shareholders, repurchasing 948,270 shares for $36.2 million in the fourth quarter, and on January 22, 2026, the board authorized a new $100 million share buyback program effective January 26, 2026, replacing the existing program and underscoring confidence in the company’s earnings power and capital position.
