ATLANTA, October 21, 2026 - Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. (NYSE: PNFP) today reported financial results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2026. Net income available to common shareholders was $364 million, or $2.40 per diluted share in third quarter2026. Excluding merger-related expenses, investment securities losses and certain other items, adjusted net income available to common shareholders was $409 million, or $2.69 per diluted share.
"Three quarters into our first year as a combined company, the pattern that built Pinnacle is intact: consistent, repeatable performance, quarter after quarter. The merger changed our size, not how we perform. Strong loan and deposit growth and outsized growth in fee income have driven double-digit diluted EPS growth year over year. And we did it while building capital and keeping credit sound. Retention and recruiting are both ahead of plan, and clients remain loyal and committed to doing more business with us. We plan to close 2026 building on that pattern of performance," said Pinnacle President and CEO Kevin Blair. Read the report.
