Expert Statements
Jeff Newgard, President and Chief Executive Officer of GBank Financial Holdings
“Despite the lower than expected earnings during the period, I want to emphasize that our core banking franchise performed well during the third quarter, with higher net interest income, an improved net interest margin, and strong SBA production and gain-on-sale margin.”
Jeff Newgard, President and Chief Executive Officer of GBank Financial Holdings
“While earnings were affected by lower interchange income following the decision by several large sports betting operators to discontinue credit cards as a funding source, as well as several one-time or non-core items, we believe the underlying performance of the bank reflects the strength of our franchise.”
Jeff Newgard, President and Chief Executive Officer of GBank Financial Holdings
“Going forward, my focus is on strengthening the core bank; building my team which I hope to have completed by year end; maintaining strong credit discipline and executing on the opportunities before us.”
Jeff Newgard, President and Chief Executive Officer of GBank Financial Holdings
“While the legacy retail credit card portfolio will continue to affect provision expense in the near term, we expect that impact to diminish as the portfolio continues to run off.”
Jeff Newgard, President and Chief Executive Officer of GBank Financial Holdings
“My goal for the company and shareholders is to address the items that have held back earnings and have them behind us by the end of the year, so that 2027 can be a fresh start at the bank and we will clearly see the impacts of our gaming fintech initiatives taking hold as we move through the year.”
