We continue to drive revenue growth while keeping core expenses relatively flat compared to prior periods.” Resch added, “Going forward in 2026, we see opportunities to grow net interest income driven by rising funding balances and the deployment of those funds into loans and investment securities, as well as increasing financial fees from higher demand for advances through Amplify and other quick pay solutions. The ability to combine revenue growth with expense control, primarily due to automation and the ongoing consolidation within our Facilities division, offers very compelling earnings momentum for us in coming periods."
