Here are 3-5 expected drivers of future revenue growth for Northrim BanCorp (NRIM) over the next 2-3 years:

1. Loan Growth and Market Share Expansion: Northrim BanCorp anticipates continued robust loan growth, driven by efforts to attract new customers and deepen existing relationships within Alaska. The company has seen significant increases in portfolio loans, with an 18% increase year-over-year in Q1 2024 and 11% year-over-year in Q3 2025. This growth is expected to be sustained through expanded customer relationships and increased market share in various lending areas, including commercial and consumer loans.
2. Expansion into New Markets and Services: A key driver is Northrim's strategic expansion, both geographically and in product offerings. The acquisition of Sallyport Commercial Finance, completed in October 2024, diversifies revenue streams by adding purchased receivable factoring and asset-based lending services across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, Northrim's Residential Mortgage subsidiary has expanded operations into new markets such as Arizona, Colorado, and the Pacific Northwest, aiming to increase loan volume. The company is also developing a Renewable Energy Financing Group and is actively involved in Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) programs in Alaskan communities.
3. Net Interest Margin (NIM) Improvement and Stability: Management expects continued support for margins from favorable loan repricing and stable or lower deposit costs. Northrim has demonstrated an improving net interest margin, which increased to 4.72% in Q2 2025 and 4.88% in Q3 2025, reflecting a more profitable asset allocation and higher yields on earning assets. This trend is anticipated to continue due to the upward repricing of loans and securities, alongside stable deposit costs.
4. Growth in Mortgage Banking Income: Mortgage banking income has been a consistent contributor to Northrim's profitability. The expansion of Residential Mortgage operations into new geographical markets is specifically designed to generate increased loan volume and, consequently, higher mortgage banking income in the coming years.
5. Deposit Growth: Northrim forecasts mid-to-high single-digit growth in deposits in 2025, which is crucial for funding ongoing loan expansion. The company has shown strong deposit gathering capabilities, with total deposits increasing by 6% year-over-year in Q1 2024 and 11% year-over-year in Q3 2025. This healthy deposit base, characterized by a high percentage of non-interest-bearing and core deposits, provides a stable and cost-effective funding source for future lending activities.
