This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row.

City Holding Company paid $3.48 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.87 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $144.54 that is a yield of 2.41%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast.

A dividend is cash paid out for each share. The 12-month total is the four most recent quarters added together.

City Holding is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list.

City Holding Company earned $33.1 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −0.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $129 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 10.3% a year on average. That is 40.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $33.1 M.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

For the full year, FY25 profit was $129 M (+11.5% on the year before).

Why profit moved: revenue changed +0.9% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.4 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +8.2% and revenue +6.7%. Profit and revenue are moving at about the same pace.

City Holding Company reported $81.1 M of income in the Jun 2026 quarter, +0.9% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 8.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $316 M.

For a bank, revenue is everything it earns: interest on its loans plus fees from its businesses.

The last four reported quarters add to $321 M.

FY25 revenue was $316 M, +8.2% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +6.7% on average, against 8.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +6.5%, against +5.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +7.9%, against +6.6% a year (stabilising).

City Holding Company's net margin was 40.8% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.4 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 5 years it has been between 38.2% and 41.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Net margin is what the bank keeps from every $100 of revenue after every cost, provision for bad loans and tax. With big fee businesses in the mix, it is the clearest margin we can read for this bank.

Across 5 years it has been between 38.2% and 41.0%, and FY25's 41.0% is the highest of them.

Why: the net margin move is clear, but the cost details behind it are not in our data, so we show the move without guessing the reason.

When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold.

City Holding Company does not report loan-quality figures this page can read, so this section says so rather than guess. No bad-loan figures are filed in a form this page can read, and none are guessed from the profit line. The income, margin and return sections carry what this business does report.

Gross NPA is the share of the loan book where repayments have stopped. Net NPA is what is left after the money the lender has already set aside for those loans. Falling is good; rising is a warning.

Why: loan quality drives a lender, but its details (new bad loans, recoveries, money set aside) are not in our data for this company. The sections around this one carry what we can back up.

City Holding Company's revenue was $316 M in FY25, +8.2% on the year before, so the loan book is growing. The latest quarter was +0.9% on a year earlier. The net margin on that income is 40.8%, −0.4 percentage points on a year ago.

We read the loan book through revenue: when the book and the businesses grow, revenue grows with them. It is only a rough guide, because interest-rate changes and fee swings can move it a few points in any year.

Interest income stands in for the size of the loan book; changes in interest rates can move it a few points in any year.

In short: a lender grows well when its loan book grows, its margin stays steady and its loans stay clean. Quarterly loan-quality figures are missing here, so revenue growth and margin are the two we watch.

City Holding Company's P/BV is 2.6×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 96% of past readings. Its usual P/BV (the middle reading) is 2.3×, over 5.3 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

For a bank or lender we compare the price with book value, the net worth on its balance sheet. P/BV is how many dollars the market pays for each $1 of that net worth. Below 1× means the market values it at less than its net worth.

Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year book value grew while the price moved +20.2%. The price ran ahead of book value, which pushed the multiple up within its own range.

Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved +12.0% a year; about +5.2% a year came from book-value growth and about +6.8 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus book-value growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple.

In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the book value trend underneath matters more than the multiple.

City Holding Company's business is growing steadily. Revenue, profit and EPS growth have stayed positive throughout, and ROE is steady at 16.2%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

Why it matters: steady growth with healthy returns is how a business compounds over time.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the stock price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.

City Holding Company earned a return on equity of 16% in FY25. Its lowest yearly reading on file was 13% in FY21. On its assets, every $100 earned about $1.95, before the effect of borrowing. For a lender the balance sheet is the business, so the return on equity and on assets have to be read together.

Two numbers rate a bank: ROE, what it earns on shareholders’ money, and ROA, what it earns on all its assets. An ROE above about 13 to 15% is healthy; below that, net worth grows slowly.

That is above the level a bank needs to grow its net worth steadily.
