Recent Developments
For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Bank reported net income of $216.3 million, or $4.71 per diluted common share and core net income* of $218.9 million or $4.77 per diluted share. In 2024, Butterfield’s return on common equity was 21.4% with a core return on tangible common equity* of 24.0%.
During 2024, Butterfield continued to deliver strong returns through its diversified fee income, low credit risk, Treasury/Agency investment portfolio, and effective capital management. Butterfield had an excellent finish to the year with seasonally higher non-interest income, lower funding costs, and a steady net interest margin driving a higher tangible book value per share. The positive performance in the last quarter can also be attributed to the seasonal strength of both Cayman tourism and consumer credit card spend.
