Provident Financial reports Q4 EPS 37c, consensus 50c

Reports Q4 revenue $205.9M, consensus $210.4M. Net interest margin decreased three basis points to 3.28% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 3.31% for the trailing quarter, mainly due to a reduction in net accretion of purchase accounting adjustments related to the Lakeland merger. However, the core net interest margin, which excludes the impact of purchase accounting accretion and amortization, increased four basis points from the trailing quarter to 2.85%. Anthony J. Labozzetta, CEO, commented, “Provident had an eventful 2024 marked by solid financial performance and defined by the completion of our merger with Lakeland. We have maintained excellent asset quality, grown our deposits, and benefited from our expanding fee-based businesses. With core systems conversion and integration now completed, we look forward to further improving our performance across all business lines in 2025.”
