Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways

Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. (TCBI - Free Report) reported fourth-quarter 2025 adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $2.08, which surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.78. The figure also compared favorably with $1.43 in the year-ago quarter.
TCBI’s results benefited from higher net interest income (“NII”) and non-interest income, along with solid capital levels. However, results were impacted by higher expenses and lower loan balances.
Results exclude certain items. After considering this, net income available to common shareholders (GAAP basis) was $96.3 million, up 44% from $66.7 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2024.
For 2025, adjusted EPS of $6.80 surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $6.50. The figure also compared favorably with $4.43 in the year-ago quarter. Net income available to common shareholders (GAAP basis) was $312.9 million, up from $60.3 million reported in 2024.

Net interest margin (“NIM”) expanded 45 basis points year over year to 3.38%.
