Description: ATLO Ames National December 20, 2025
Ames National Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLO) is a community-bank holding company headquartered in Ames, Iowa, serving nine counties across central, north-central, and south-central Iowa. It offers a full suite of deposit products (checking, savings, money-market, CDs) and a diversified loan portfolio that includes commercial, agricultural, residential, equipment, consumer, and mortgage loans, alongside cash-management, merchant-card processing, and wealth-management services.
As of the latest quarter, ATLO reported a net interest margin of 4.1%-above the regional-bank average of roughly 3.6%-driven by a steepening yield curve and higher Fed rates. Loan-to-deposit ratio sits near 78%, indicating a balanced growth of assets versus funding, while the efficiency ratio improved to 58% after cost-cutting initiatives. The company’s performance is closely tied to Iowa’s agricultural cycle and the broader credit-quality outlook for midsize farms, which can be a leading indicator for loan-loss provisions in this sector.
