First Merchants Corporation Stock News

MUNCIE, Ind., Nov. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Merchants Corporation declared a cash dividend on November 14, 2025 of $0.36 per common share. The dividend is payable on December 19, 2025, to common shareholders of record as of December 5, 2025.

First Merchants delivers solid earnings growth, with net interest income rising and a well-covered 4% dividend yield. FRME's common shares offer a compelling risk/reward profile, trading at under 10x earnings and below 1.5x tangible book value. The preferred stock appears less attractive due to a 5% premium over the call price and potential call risk, despite strong dividend coverage.
