Ottawa Bancorp, Inc., the Illinois-based holding company for OSB Community Bank, reported improved profitability for the second quarter of 2026. Net income reached $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, compared with $0.5 million in the same quarter of 2025.
On a per-share basis, the company reported basic and diluted earnings of $0.42 for the latest quarter, up from $0.21 in the corresponding quarter last year. The figures provide a straightforward view of the company’s year-over-year earnings improvement, although the announcement summary does not identify the specific factors behind the change.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, Ottawa Bancorp reported net income of $1.5 million. That year-to-date figure gives investors and business observers an additional measure of performance beyond the quarterly result, but the available information does not include a comparable six-month figure for 2025 or further operating details.
For small and mid-sized business owners, the announcement is most directly relevant as an update on one community-bank holding company rather than as evidence of a broader banking trend. Owners evaluating financial relationships should continue to assess the institutions serving their market based on the products, service and terms available to them. Ottawa Bancorp’s shares trade on the OTCQX market under the symbol OTTW.
