Revenue

20 years

In the twelve months to 30 Sep 2026, revenue rose 5.2% on the twelve months before. Revenue has grown strongly since 2006, at around 23% per year.

Margins

20 years
  • Operating margin

In fiscal 2025: operating 29%, net 21%. Banks and insurers have no gross margin, and their net margin is not comparable with other industries. The score leaves both out. Last 12 months: net −1%.

Company outlook raised

Share price after the results: +1.9%

Banc of California narrowed its fourth quarter net interest margin guidance to 3.35% to 3.40%, up from a 3.35% exit rate in the third quarter, and reaffirmed pre-tax pre-provision income guidance of $125 million to $130 million with further upside expected from securities reinvestment and loan …

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“To summarize our fourth quarter outlook, we continue to expect pre-tax, pre-provision income of $125 million-$130 million and a year-end CET1 ratio of between 9.80% and 9.90%, and we have revised our net interest margin outlook to 3.35%-3.40%.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
