WesBanco Q2 net income rises to $54.9 million, EPS $0.57 from $0.44 a year earlier
WesBanco reported second-quarter 2025 net income available to common shareholders of $54.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, up from $26.4 million and $0.44 a year earlier, following its February 28, 2025 acquisition of Premier Financial Corp. Excluding after-tax restructuring and merger-related expenses, adjusted diluted EPS was $0.91 versus $0.49, and the filing does not include updated guidance. For shareholders, the quarter shows a larger bank with higher net interest income, though restructuring costs and a higher provision for credit losses in the first half weighed on reported results.
