Summary

QCR Holdings delivered strong second quarter 2026 results, with net income of $36.3 million and diluted EPS of $2.19 representing 28% year-over-year growth. The performance was driven by a surge in LIHTC capital markets revenue to $16.7 million (up 69% YoY), reflecting robust demand for affordable housing financing and the strength of the company's specialized lending platform. Loan growth of 12% annualized (excluding offtake transactions and the planned m2 portfolio runoff) and a 310-basis-point improvement in the efficiency ratio to 54.6% underscore improving operating leverage.

Asset quality trends were notably positive, with criticized loans declining to 1.91% of total loans—the lowest level since late 2019—and nonperforming assets down to 0.41% of total assets. The company executed $443.6 million in LIHTC loan offtake transactions during the quarter, advancing its capital-light strategy, though the Freddie Mac securitization incurred a $1.3 million loss due to higher costs under the revised M-Series program. Management reaffirmed LIHTC capital markets revenue guidance of $60 million to $70 million over the next four quarters and gross loan growth guidance of 10% to 15% annualized for the second half of 2026, signaling confidence in the business momentum.
