Horizon Bancorp, Inc. Reports Positive Fourth Quarter 2025 Results, Entering 2026 with Peer Leading Performance Metrics
Michigan City, Indiana, January 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – (NASDAQ GS: HBNC) – Horizon Bancorp, Inc. (“Horizon” or the “Company”), the parent company of Horizon Bank (the “Bank”), announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2025.
“Horizon’s fourth quarter results demonstrate excellent execution of the balance sheet repositioning and the core strength of our community banking model. We have delivered on our commitment to shareholders to create a top performing community bank with durable, peer-leading performance metrics and shareholder returns. The fourth quarter exceeded our prior performance estimates, with annualized return on average assets exceeding 1.60%, returns on average equity approaching 16%, and a net interest margin of 4.29%. We are pleased with the results for our shareholders and the transparency the quarter provided to highlight the strength of Horizon’s community banking model, which remains the cornerstone of our value proposition", President and CEO, Thomas Prame stated. "More importantly, the Company is kicking off the new year from a position of strength, with the franchise well positioned to deliver durable earnings and continued top-tier profitability metrics in 2026. The commercial loan engine continues to produce disciplined and high-quality growth, which we expect to fund through our client-focused branch distribution network and our relationship-based community bankers. Credit quality remains excellent, and expenses continue to be well managed. As we look ahead, we will remain focused on creating sustainable long-term value for our shareholders through our disciplined operating model, consistent profitable growth and peer leading capital generation".
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $26.9 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $222.0 million, or $(4.69), for the third quarter of 2025 and a net loss of $10.9 million, or $(0.25) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024.

Horizon Bancorp, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter 2025 Results
Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights
•Strong performance of the core community banking model, combined with the successful completion of the balance sheet repositioning efforts, resulted in significant performance improvement for the quarter. The Company's return on average assets and return on average equity improved to 1.63% and 15.71%, respectively. The franchise is well positioned to continue to achieve top performance metrics moving forward.
•Net interest income of $63.5 million increased 8.7% compared with $58.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and 19.5% compared with $53.1 million in the year ago period. The net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis 1, expanded for the ninth consecutive quarter, to 4.29%, compared with 3.52% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2.97% for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
•Total loans held for investment ("HFI") increased 4.4% compared to the linked quarter annualized, with strong organic commercial loan growth of $75.8 million, or 9.1% annualized. Loan pipelines continue to be consistent, reflective of Horizon’s attractive markets and embedded community banking model.
•Funding remains durable with costs trending favorably. Non-interest bearing deposits remained relatively flat, while declines in interest-bearing balances largely reflected the communicated planned exit of high-cost, transactional deposits. Total interest-bearing liability cost performed well, decreasing by another 34 bps during the quarter.
•Credit quality remained strong, with annualized net charge offs of 0.08% of average loans during the fourth quarter. Non-performing assets remain well within expected ranges, with non-performing assets to total assets of 63 bps for the fourth quarter.
•Expenses continued to be well managed, and were comparable to the third quarter when considering a select few items related to the balance sheet activities, displaying management's continued commitment to generate positive operating leverage through a more efficient expense base.

Income Statement Highlights
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $63.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $58.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, driven by the continued expansion of the Company's net FTE interest margin 1, which increased to 4.29% for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 3.52% for the third quarter of 2025. The margin saw continued expansion as a by product of the balance sheet repositioning, stronger realized deposit betas relative to recent reductions in short-term interest rates and relatively stable overall earning asset yields since affecting the balance sheet actions in late August.
Provision for Credit Losses
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.6 million. This compares to a recorded benefit for credit losses of $3.6 million during the third quarter of 2025, and a provision for credit losses expense of $1.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in the provision for credit losses during the fourth quarter of 2025 when compared with the third quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to the release of approximately $3.1 million in total Allowance against the sold portion of the Indirect Auto portfolio and the release of the $0.2 million reserve against the previous Held-To-Maturity investment portfolio in the third quarter, which did not recur in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the Provision increased primarily due to changes in the baseline economic outlook.
For the fourth quarter of 2025, Net Charge-Offs were $1.0 million, or an annualized 0.08% of average loans outstanding, compared to Net Charge-Offs of $0.8 million, or an annualized 0.07% of average loans outstanding for the third quarter of 2025, and Net Charge-Offs of $0.6 million, or an annualized 0.05% of average loans outstanding, in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The Company’s Allowance for Credit Losses as a percentage of period-end loans HFI was 1.05% at December 31, 2025, compared to 1.04% at September 30, 2025 and 1.07% at December 31, 2024.

Total Non-Interest Income was $11.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to Non-Interest (Loss) of $295.3 million in the third quarter of 2025. The increase in Non-Interest Income of $306.8 million is due to the $299.1 million loss on the sale investment securities and the pre-tax loss of $7.7 million on the sale of the Company's Indirect Auto portfolio, both of which were related to the balance sheet repositioning efforts during the third quarter, which did not recur. Other categories remained relatively unchanged when compared with the prior period.

Total Non-Interest Expense was $40.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared with $53.0 million in the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in Non-Interest Expense during the fourth quarter of 2025 when compared with the prior period was primarily driven by a $12.7 million prepayment penalty related to the payoff of $700 million in FHLB advances during the third quarter, which did not recur. The increase in Other Losses was the result of the write off of unamortized issuance costs of $0.7 million related to the early redemption of the Company's subordinated notes due 2030. Apart from this specific item, expenses were relatively unchanged from the prior quarter, with declines in personnel expense offset by higher seasonal occupancy expenses, marketing expense and higher professional expense from legal fees to settle certain legacy items.
Income Taxes
Horizon recorded a net tax expense of $5.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, resulting in an effective tax rate of 17.7%, which is consistent with the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets decreased by $275.9 million, or 4.1%, to $6.4 billion as of December 31, 2025, from $6.7 billion as of September 30, 2025. The decrease in total assets is primarily due to the decrease in interest earning deposits of $309.2 million, a decrease in other assets of $10.8 million, a decrease in cash of $9.6 million, and a decrease in total investment securities of $4.5 million. Total loans were $4.9 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $60.7 million from September 30, 2025 balances, primarily driven by organic commercial loan growth.
Total deposits decreased by $245.5 million, or 4.4%, to $5.3 billion as of December 31, 2025 when compared to balances as of September 30, 2025, which is largely attributable to the intentional runoff of another $195 million in higher-cost transactional deposit balances. The decrease also was driven by a decrease in time deposits of $97.2 million, a decrease of interest bearing deposits of $75.6 million, and a decrease in savings and money market deposits of $28.5 million. Non-interest bearing deposit balances decreased $44.2 million in the current period, which is largely attributable to seasonal trends, but increased from the year ago period. Subordinated notes balances decreased by $55.8 million during the quarter related to the early redemption of the Company's subordinated notes due 2030, as previously planned.

These and additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in Horizon’s reports (such as the Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC and available at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov). Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward–looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Horizon does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the events or circumstances after the date on which the forward–looking statement is made, or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by law.
