Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. earned $40.1 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +17.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $140 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 17.1% a year on average. That is 35.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $34.0 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $140 M (+22.4% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +19.8% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.6 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +16.6% and revenue +14.7%. Profit and revenue are moving at about the same pace. ## How much revenue does Stock Yards Bancorp make, and is it growing? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. reported $115 M of income in the Jun 2026 quarter, +19.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 9th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 13.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $391 M. The last four reported quarters add to $418 M. FY25 revenue was $391 M, +14.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +14.7% on average, against 13.3% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +14.7%, against +13.0% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +16.5%, against +19.6% a year (rolling over). ## How much does Stock Yards Bancorp keep from what it earns? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.'s net margin was 35.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.6 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 29.9% and 35.9%. The latest quarter is within that range. Across 5 years it has been between 29.9% and 35.9%, and FY25's 35.9% 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. ## How many of Stock Yards Bancorp's loans have gone bad? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. 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. 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. ## How fast is Stock Yards Bancorp's loan book growing? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.'s revenue was $391 M in FY25, +14.0% on the year before, so the loan book is growing. The latest quarter was +19.8% on a year earlier. The net margin on that income is 35.0%, −0.6 percentage points on a year ago. 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. ## What is Stock Yards Bancorp's P/BV ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.'s P/BV is 2.1×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 57% of past readings. Its usual P/BV (the middle reading) is 2.0×, 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. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year book value grew while the price moved +18.5%. Price and book value moved together, so the multiple stayed in its range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved +3.8% a year; about +10.0% a year came from book-value growth and about −6.2 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). 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 about average against its own past, so the book value trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Stock Yards Bancorp business getting better or worse? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.'s business is getting better. Profit growth hit its low 8 quarters ago at −8.3% and has recovered to +16.5%, with ROE steady at 12.0%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: a lasting rise from a low is what this page is built to show. ## How much does Stock Yards Bancorp earn on its equity and assets? Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. earned a return on equity of 13% in FY25. Its lowest yearly reading on file was 11% in FY21. On its assets, every $100 earned about $1.60, 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. That is above the level a bank needs to grow its net worth steadily. Why ROE moved: profit grew 17.1% a year over 4 years while net worth grew more slowly. When earnings recover faster than net worth builds up, ROE climbs off its low. ## Does Stock Yards Bancorp have too much debt? For a bank, borrowing is the raw material of the business, not a warning sign: it borrows money in order to lend it out. Its safety is read through its returns and its loans. Its safety is read from the bad-loan figures and the return on equity instead. For a manufacturer, debt is a claim on its profits. For a lender it is the stock it trades in, so the usual debt-to-equity test would mislead and is not used here. ## What is the Stock Yards Bancorp shareholding pattern? 4.6% of Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 8.2 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Stock Yards Bancorp from balance-sheet trouble? For Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc., the Z-score is not used, because it was built for manufacturers, not lenders. For a lender, safety is read from its capital and bad-loan figures instead. ## How does Stock Yards Bancorp rank in its industry?
