Forward Guidance
Mercantile anticipates robust commercial loan originations in future periods based on the strength of the current pipeline and the level of credit availability on construction and development loans. Growing the local deposit base will continue to be a key area of focus as we continue our efforts to reduce our loan-to-deposit ratio and limit the use of wholesale funds as a funding source for projected loan growth.
Positive Outlook
- Strong commercial loan portfolio expansion.
- Maintenance of existing customer relationships.
- Acquisition of new customer relationships.
- Robust capital position and operating results.
- Commitment to building shareholder value through meaningful cash returns.
Challenges Ahead
- Potential issues resulting from changing economic environments.
- Falling net interest margin due to higher costs of deposits and borrowings.
- A change in funding mix.
