Kearny Financial Corp. Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results and Declaration of Cash Dividend
FAIRFIELD, N.J., Oct. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kearny Financial Corp. (NASDAQ GS: KRNY) (the “Company”), the holding company of Kearny Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 of $9.5 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to $6.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per share, payable on November 19, 2025, to stockholders of record as of November 5, 2025.
Craig L. Montanaro, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report a strong quarter that underscores our continued momentum in profitability growth. Net interest margin expansion of 10 basis points, in conjunction with solid credit quality and well-controlled expenses, led to a 36% quarter-over-quarter increase in earnings per share. Our proactive balance sheet management, combined with the expected tailwinds from anticipated reductions in the federal funds rate, positions us well for sustained performance in the quarters ahead.”
Mr. Montanaro continued, “Strategically, we advanced several key initiatives designed to enhance operational efficiency and drive shareholder value. The launch of our partnership with The Lab Consulting—a leading provider of end-to-end robotic process automation—represents a key milestone in our efforts to elevate the client experience and scale revenue efficiently. Additionally, the execution of our previously announced branch consolidations enables us to reallocate capital toward higher-return opportunities, reinforcing our commitment to long-term growth and value creation.”

Earnings
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
- Net interest margin expanded by 10 basis points to 2.10% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The increase for the quarter was primarily driven by improved asset yields and reductions in borrowings, partially offset by lower average balances on interest-earning assets and higher costs on interest-bearing liabilities.
- For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, net interest income increased $1.9 million to $37.7 million from $35.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Included in net interest income for the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively, was purchase accounting accretion of $601,000 and $511,000, and loan prepayment penalty income of $490,000 and $217,000.
Non-Interest Income
- For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, non-interest income increased $856,000, or 17.2%, to $5.8 million from $5.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by a non-recurring pre-tax gain of $749,000 on the sale of property held for sale in the current period. Excluding this item, non-interest income increased $107,000, or 2.1%, to $5.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
- Fees and service charges increased $237,000, or 36.2%, to $892,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 from $655,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase primarily reflected higher deposit and branch related fee income.
- Income from BOLI decreased $180,000, or 6.3%, to $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 from $2.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by the absence of $223,000 in non-recurring payments recorded in the prior period. No such non-recurring items were recorded in the current period.
Non-Interest Expense
- For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, non-interest expense increased $773,000, or 2.5%, to $31.7 million from $30.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by increases in salary and benefits and net occupancy, partially offset by declines in federal deposit insurance premiums and other expense.
- Salary and benefits expense increased $652,000 to $18.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 from $18.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by annual merit increases and higher non-recurring payroll taxes of $185,000 associated with annual incentive compensation.
- Net occupancy expense of premises increased $487,000 to $3.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 from $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by a non-recurring pre-tax expense of $250,000 associated with our previously announced branch consolidations and non-recurring branch maintenance expenses of $102,000. Excluding these items, net occupancy expense of premises increased $135,000 to $3.0 million, primarily driven by higher repairs and other maintenance expenses.
- Federal deposit insurance premium expense decreased $94,000 to $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 from $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by higher capital ratios.
- Other expense decreased $163,000 to $3.5 million for the quarter September 30, 2025 from $3.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven the absence of non-recurring professional fees incurred in the prior period, partially offset by elevated fraud losses in the current period. The remaining changes in the other components of non-interest expense between comparative periods reflected normal operating fluctuations within those line items.
Income Taxes
- Income tax expense totaled $2.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.6% and 17.0%, respectively. The increase in income tax expense was due to higher pre-tax income in the current quarter coupled with the tax cost associated with the vesting of certain stock-based compensation awards.
Asset Quality
- The balance of non-performing assets increased to $64.6 million, or 0.84% of total assets, at September 30, 2025 from $45.6 million, or 0.59% of total assets, at June 30, 2025. The increase was driven by a single construction loan that became 90 days past due but remains on accrual status. The loan is secured by collateral under contract for sale, with all covenants satisfied and a loan-to-sale price ratio of 72%. No provision for credit losses related to this loan was recorded as of September 30, 2025, as full repayment is expected upon completion of the sale.
- Net charge-offs totaled $1.0 million, or 0.07% of average loans, on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $49,000, or less than 0.01% of average loans, on an annualized basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The net charge-offs recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were primarily driven by a wholesale commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan, representing the final wholesale C&I loan in the portfolio. This charge-off had previously been individually reserved for within the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”).
- For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a reversal of credit losses of $82,000, compared to a provision for credit losses of $1.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The reversal for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was largely driven by decreases in the balance of loans receivable, partially offset by qualitative risk factor adjustments.
- The ACL was $45.1 million, or 0.78% of total loans, at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.1 million from $46.2 million, or 0.79% of total loans, at June 30, 2025. The decrease in the ACL from June 30, 2025 was largely attributable to a reduction in reserves for individually evaluated loans, resulting from the charge-offs noted above.
Capital
- For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, book value per share increased $0.08, or 0.7%, to $11.63 while tangible book value per share increased $0.09, or 0.9%, to $9.86.
- At September 30, 2025, total stockholders’ equity included after-tax net unrealized losses on securities available for sale of $71.5 million, partially offset by after-tax unrealized gains on derivatives of $3.1 million. After-tax net unrecognized losses on securities held to maturity of $8.4 million were not reflected in total stockholders’ equity.
- At September 30, 2025, the Company’s tangible equity to tangible assets ratio equaled 8.47% and the regulatory capital ratios of both the Company and the Bank were in excess of the levels required by federal banking regulators to be classified as “well-capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of certain financial measures calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) (as reported) and non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures provide additional information which allow readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company. They are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial information. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP per share measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders.
