HomeStreet, Inc. announced a net loss of $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase from the $6.2 million net loss in the previous quarter. This was primarily driven by lower noninterest income and net interest income. Despite the slight decrease in net interest margin to 1.33%, the company anticipates funding costs to decrease and interest margin to improve in the fourth quarter due to recent short-term rate decreases. Total assets decreased by $191 million, and total deposits decreased by $328 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, partially offset by increased borrowings. Credit quality metrics, including nonperforming assets and delinquencies, remained low.
