Financial services specialists, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. (also known as “KBW”), released its 2025 Bank Honor Roll Award winners, and Pathward Financial, Inc. (“Pathward Financial” or the “company”) (Nasdaq: CASH), the financial holding company for Pathward®, N.A. (“Pathward”), is one of 16 U.S. banking institutions named to KBW’s list of high-performing banks.

According to KBW’s April 29 news release, banks must have more than $500 million in total assets to be eligible for the award. KBW based its list on two criteria:

      1. Consistent earnings growth over each of the past 10 years; and/or

          2. Top 5% earnings per share compound annual growth rate over the past 10 years

Pathward Financial is one of only two companies on the list to satisfy both criteria.

“We finished 2024 strong and have reported solid results in the first two quarters of fiscal year 2025,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Pathward and Pathward Financial Greg Sigrist. “We appreciate KBW’s recognition, and we are honored to be named among top performing banks again this year.”

KBW’s announcement came just a week after Pathward Financial’s Fiscal Year 2025 Second Quarter earnings announcement, where the company reported total revenue for the second quarter of $262.9 million, an increase of $15.6 million, or 6%, compared to the same quarter in fiscal 2024, primarily driven by an increase in both net interest income and noninterest income.
