First Interstate BancSystem stock (ISIN US32055Y2019) stood at USD 36.80 on September 22, 2026, after the latest available quote showed a daily decline of 0.10 percent. The regional bank's second-quarter net income reached USD 83.90 million, up 17.0 percent from the prior-year period, making earnings the clearest operating reference for the shares.

Q2 profit rises 17 percent

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, First Interstate BancSystem reported earnings per share of USD 0.87 and net income of USD 83.90 million. According to ChoiceStock on September 23, 2026, the result represented a 17.0 percent year-over-year increase.

Net interest margin was 3.45 percent in Q2 2026, improving by 4 basis points from the previous quarter and by 15 basis points from the year-earlier period. Net interest income reached USD 202.20 million, an increase of USD 1.50 million from Q1 2026, although it was USD 5.00 million below the prior-year comparison.

Margin improvement meets balance sheet pressure

The figures show a mixed operating picture. Funding costs and higher investment-security yields supported the sequential improvement in net interest income, while lower loans and the sale of Nebraska branches weighed on the year-over-year comparison.

Noninterest income was USD 61.70 million in Q2 2026, up USD 20.60 million from both the previous quarter and the prior-year period, with the increase attributed to gains from the Nebraska branch sale. The bank's criticized loans declined to USD 937.40 million at quarter-end, down USD 95.80 million sequentially and USD 265.60 million year over year.

Stock remains below yearly high

The September 9, 2026 market snapshot showed a 52-week range of USD 29.10 to USD 40.59 and market capitalization of USD 3.51 billion. At USD 36.80 on September 22, the stock was USD 3.79 below the reported 52-week high and USD 7.70 above the low.

Total assets were USD 25.885 billion at June 30, 2026, down USD 541.80 million from the preceding quarter. That balance-sheet contraction is the main counterweight to the improved margin and the 17.0 percent earnings growth.
