EXHIBIT 99.1
Midland States Bancorp, Inc. Announces 2025 Fourth Quarter Results
Effingham, IL, January 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Midland States Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: MSBI) (the “Company”) today reported a net loss available to common shareholders of $5.1 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $5.3 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025. This also compares to a net loss of $33.0 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025 included the previously announced loss on the sale of substantially all of the Company’s equipment finance portfolio of $21.4 million, in addition to a $1.6 million loss on the sale of a small consumer loan portfolio. Excluding these transactions, adjusted earnings available to common shareholders were $11.9 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2025.
The Company also recognized additional credit enhancement income of $6.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2025 resulting from contractual changes in its third-party lending and servicing arrangements, which was partially offset by $1.7 million in additional FDIC assessments related to prior years’ amended call reports due to the restatements of prior years’ financial statements.
2025 Fourth Quarter Results
•Net loss available to common shareholders of $5.1 million, or $0.24 per diluted share; Adjusted earnings available to common shareholders of $11.9 million, or $0.53 per diluted share
•Sale of substantially all of the equipment finance portfolio for $21.4 million loss
•Adjusted pre-provision net revenue of $31.4 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, compared to $31.3 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025
•Net interest margin of 3.74% compared to 3.79% in the prior quarter, which included interest recoveries of $1.6 million
•Ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets of 1.02%, consistent with the prior quarter
•Total capital to risk-weighted assets of 15.16% and common equity tier 1 capital of 9.89%
•Provision for credit losses on loans was $11.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $20.5 million for the third quarter of 2025
Discussion of Outlook; President & Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey G. Ludwig:
“Entering 2025, improving credit quality was our number one priority and throughout the year, we took significant steps to reduce our risk in the loan portfolio and strengthen our balance sheet. We have significantly enhanced our credit talent, culture, and underwriting standards in 2025, and while non-performing assets remain above our 0.75% target, we believe the actions taken in 2025 position us well
for continued improvement. We accomplished this without raising any additional capital while also continuing to invest in our core businesses.
“Our capital position improved, with the common equity tier 1 capital ratio rising to 9.89% and approaching our 10.0% target. With the Company’s shares trading near tangible book value during the quarter, we repurchased $9.6 million of common stock.
“Revenue trends remained positive in the fourth quarter, highlighted by a strong net interest margin and roughly 6.5% annualized loan growth in our Community Bank. Also, our wealth management business posted another record quarter. We continue to invest in these businesses and expect solid momentum to continue in 2026.”
Key Points for Fourth Quarter and Outlook
Sale of substantially all of the equipment finance portfolio; Continuation of credit clean-up
•As previously announced, the Company sold substantially all of its equipment finance loan and lease portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2025, resulting in a loss on sale of $21.4 million.
•Nonperforming loans and loans 30-89 days past due decreased to $65.5 million and $17.1 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025.
•Net charge-offs, excluding the impact of $29.8 million of the allowance for credit losses which were charged off as part of the equipment finance portfolio sale, were $13.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, which included:
◦$5.3 million of net charge-offs in the retained portion of our equipment finance portfolio
◦$3.7 million of net charge-offs on non-performing commercial real estate loans included in our Community Bank portfolio due to the receipt of updated appraisals
◦$2.0 million of fully reimbursed net charge-offs related to our third-party lending portfolio
◦$1.1 million of charge-offs related to a commercial real estate loan that moved to non-accrual during the quarter.
•Provision for credit losses on loans was $11.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses on loans resulted from the replenishment of reserve balances following higher net charge-offs during the quarter and a modest reserve build related to growth in the Community Bank portfolio.
•Allowance for credit losses on loans was $69.2 million, or 1.59% of total loans at December 31, 2025 compared to an allowance of $100.9 million at September 30, 2025, or 2.07% of total loans. The decrease was primarily driven by the reduction in the allowance for credit losses associated with the portion of the equipment finance portfolio that was sold during the quarter.
The table below summarizes certain information regarding the Company’s loan portfolio asset quality for the periods presented.

Solid Growth Trends in Community Bank & Wealth Management
•Total loans at December 31, 2025 were $4.35 billion, a decrease of $515.6 million from September 30, 2025. Key changes in the loan portfolio were as follows:
◦Community Bank balances increased $53.7 million, or 1.6%, from September 30, 2025. We originated $180 million of new loans during the fourth quarter of 2025, which benefited from growth in commercial clients with full banking relationships, increasing from $129 million during the third quarter of 2025. This growth was partially offset by payoffs of $161.2 million, increasing from $146.0 million during the third quarter of 2025. Pipelines continued to remain strong through the end of the fourth quarter of 2025 and to begin 2026.
◦Equipment finance balances declined $578.1 million compared to balances at September 30, 2025, primarily due to the sale of substantially all of the portfolio during the quarter.
◦Non-core loans decreased $17.2 million to $295.8 million from September 30, 2025.
•Total deposits were $5.42 billion at December 31, 2025, a decrease of $180.4 million from September 30, 2025. The decrease in deposits reflected the following:
◦Community Bank deposits decreased $154.9 million from balances as of September 30, 2025, driven by seasonality in public funds and ordinary fluctuations in liquidity related to certain of our larger deposit customer relationships.
◦Brokered deposits decreased $24.0 million from balances as of September 30, 2025. The reduction in higher-cost deposit funding improved our net interest margin by 4 basis points during the quarter.
•Wealth Management revenue totaled $8.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Assets under administration were $4.48 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase from $4.36 billion at September 30, 2025. The Company continued to experience strong pipelines through the end of the fourth quarter of 2025.
Net Interest Margin
•Net interest margin was 3.74%, down 5 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2025. The third quarter of 2025 included a $1.6 million interest recovery due to the payoff of a nonaccrual
loan. Excluding this, the net interest margin increased 5 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2025. Our cost of funding continues to decline, as rate cuts enacted by the Federal Reserve beginning in late 2024 continue to result in a lower cost of deposits for the Company, which fell by 17 basis points to 1.95% in the fourth quarter of 2025. The rate cuts in December 2025 had a limited effect on the fourth quarter’s results but should result in additional improvement in funding costs into 2026.
The following table presents the Company’s net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2025 and the fourth quarter of 2024.
