Community Bancorp (CMTV) reported first‑quarter 2026 results that show a solid year‑over‑year performance. Net interest income rose 15.99% to $10.95 million from $9.4 million in Q1 2025, while net income increased to $4.4 million from $3.53 million a year earlier. Basic earnings per share from continuing operations climbed to $0.78, up from $0.62 in the prior year, reflecting the combined effect of higher interest earnings and disciplined cost management.
The quarter also saw healthy balance‑sheet growth. Loans expanded by $43.6 million, a 4.64% increase, and deposits grew by $38 million, a 3.89% rise. Total assets reached $1.24 billion, up 3.99% year‑over‑year. Community Bancorp recently uplisted to the Nasdaq Capital Market, and it declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share, payable May 1 2026.
Net interest margin held steady at 3.81%, indicating that the bank was able to capture higher yields on its loan portfolio while keeping interest expense in check. The provision for credit losses increased modestly to $391,505 from $325,054 in Q1 2025, suggesting a slightly more conservative stance on potential loan losses but not eroding profitability. Together, these metrics point to a bank that is growing its core lending business while maintaining healthy margins.
Overall, the results demonstrate that Community Bancorp is executing on its growth strategy. Loan and deposit expansion, coupled with a stable net interest margin, support a positive outlook for the remainder of the year. The earnings beat analysts’ expectations for net income and EPS, underscoring the bank’s operational efficiency and market positioning.
