Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Simmons First National Corporation reported a third-quarter 2025 net loss of $562.8 million, or $4.00 per diluted share, compared with net income of $54.8 million in the second quarter. The loss mainly reflects an $801.5 million pre-tax loss on the sale of about $2.4 billion of low-yielding securities, part of a balance sheet repositioning funded by a roughly $327 million equity offering. Adjusted diluted EPS rose to $0.46 from $0.44 in the second quarter, but the GAAP loss sharply reduced shareholders' equity and book value per share.
