LOS ANGELES, April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Preferred Bank (NASDAQ: PFBC), one of the larger independent California banks, today reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Preferred Bank (“the Bank”) reported net income of $31.1 million or $2.53 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2026. This represents a decrease in net income of $3.7 million from the prior quarter and an increase of $1.1 million over the same quarter last year. The increase compared to last year was primarily due to an increase in net interest income of $2.7 million. The decrease in net income from the prior quarter was due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.7 million coupled with a decrease in noninterest income of $3.8 million. The primary reason for the decrease in net interest income was due to the reversal of interest on loans which were placed on nonaccrual status during the quarter. This was previously detailed in a press release on February 23, 2026. The decrease in noninterest income was due to a $3.6 million gain on sale of OREO recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025 which did not recur.
