Eagle Financial Services reports third-quarter results and proposed John Marshall merger

Eagle Financial Services reported third-quarter 2026 net income of $4.8 million on October 22, 2026, while its board declared a $0.31 per-share dividend. The company also disclosed a proposed merger with John Marshall Bancorp, alongside quarterly net-loan growth of $32.4 million and an increase in net interest margin to 3.95%. Adjusted net income was $5.0 million, up 125.4% from the prior quarter but down 10.1% from the year-earlier period.

The proposed transaction could materially change Eagle Financial Services' corporate structure and scale if completed, while the dividend provides a scheduled cash return to shareholders. CEO Brandon Lorey said the company believes the combination can create long-term shareholder value.
