what happened

BWB posted Q3 net income of $15.0 million. Its net interest margin reached 3.09%, and its efficiency ratio improved to 48.8%. Loans and core deposits grew, but credit provisions and net charge-offs rose from the previous quarter.

ORRF also reported higher earnings from the prior quarter. Its margin expanded to 4.12%, loans grew 9% on an annualized basis, and credit quality improved. Seasonal deposit outflows increased borrowings, while higher rates widened securities losses and reduced tangible book value.
