ANNOUNCEMENTS

ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. Ranks Sixth Among

Top-Performing Banks with between $10 Billion to

$50 Billion in Assets

ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. is pleased to announce they have ranked sixth in the top-performing United States banks with between $10 billion to $50 billion in assets, according to American Banker’s annual list. The banks are ranked by the consulting firm Capital Performance Group based on their three-year average return on average equity, or ROAE, using data from year-end 2025. Previously, ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. was ranked fifth based on year-end 2024 data.


Claude Hanley, founder and partner at Capital Performance Group, said one of the biggest differences between the top-performing banks and the broader group was funding. The top 10 held a larger share of low-cost demand deposits, such as checking and money market accounts, giving them a cheaper source of funding for loans and helping preserve margins even as interest rates declined. Hanley also said there was no huge turnover among the top 10 performers, adding that the banks included in the ranking "outperformed in almost every aspect."


“Being recognized among the country’s top-performing banks is a meaningful reflection of the consistency and commitment of our entire team,” states Tom Broughton, ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. Chairman, President, and CEO. “Our performance is rooted in staying focused on our customers, making thoughtful decisions and maintaining the high standards we have set for ourselves since the Bank was founded. We are proud of what our team has accomplished and grateful for the trust our customers and shareholders continue to place in us. We remain focused on carrying that momentum forward as we grow and serve our markets.”


As the only Alabama-based institution to rank in the top ten, ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. continues to strengthen its reputation as a high-performing, well-capitalized financial institution.
