Eagle Bancorp is a financial holding company headquartered in the Washington, D.C.

The company provides commercial and consumer banking services through its subsidiary, EagleBank, and is known for its focus on commercial real estate lending and relationship-driven banking.

Potential Concerns Under Investigation

Attorneys are reviewing whether Eagle Bancorp and certain executives made false or misleading statements, or failed to disclose material information, about the company’s loan-portfolio risks and financial health between January 22 and October 22, 2025.

On January 22, 2025, Eagle Bancorp reported fourth-quarter 2024 results showing net income of $15.3 million, highlighting a minor rise in reserves tied to a single large loan and stating that “classified and criticized loans declined,” with 69% performing.

However, substandard loans had already reached $426.4 million and nonperforming loans $208.7 million, figures that may not have been fully conveyed to investors.

On April 23, 2025, the company released first-quarter 2025 results revealing net income of $1.7 million, down sharply from the prior quarter, driven by a $14.1 million increase in credit-loss provisions. Following this news, the stock fell from $21.19 on April 23 to a close of $18.78 on April 24, 2025.

On July 23, 2025, Eagle Bancorp disclosed a $69.8 million net loss for the second quarter, largely due to a $111.9 million provision expense for “resolving challenged loans.”

In the same report, the company also revealed $875.4 million in substandard and special-mention loans as of June 30, 2025, exposing the full extent of its credit-portfolio weakness. After these disclosures, the stock dropped from $21.49 on July 23 to $16.93 by market close on July 24, 2025.

The most recent decline followed the third-quarter 2025 results issued on October 22, 2025, which showed a continued deterioration in Eagle Bancorp’s financial performance. The company reported another decline in net income and an increase in credit-loss provisions tied to its commercial real-estate and office-loan portfolios.

The next day, on October 23, 2025, Eagle Bancorp issued a correction notice to amend portions of its earnings disclosure.

Following these announcements, the company’s stock fell approximately 12.5%, from $19.38 to $16.95, potentially reflecting investor concerns over recent financial reports.
