Description: HTBK Heritage Commerce December 26, 2025

Heritage Commerce Corp (NASDAQ: HTBK) is the holding company for Heritage Bank of Commerce, a California-focused community bank that serves both retail customers and businesses. Its product suite includes demand, savings and money-market deposits, CDs, and a full range of loan offerings-from working-capital and equipment financing to commercial real-estate, SBA, multifamily, residential mortgage, and consumer auto loans. The bank also provides typical banking services such as online bill pay, remote deposit capture, cash management, and safe-deposit boxes.

As of the latest quarterly filing (Q4 2023), HTBK reported total assets of roughly $4.2 billion and a loan-to-deposit ratio of about 78%, indicating a relatively conservative balance-sheet stance compared with the regional-bank average of ~85%. Its net interest margin (NIM) held near 3.2%, supported by the Federal Reserve’s higher policy rates, while loan growth slowed to ~2% YoY amid California’s tight housing market and elevated construction costs. A key sector driver is the state’s commercial-real-estate outlook; a 5%-10% decline in office vacancy rates could materially boost loan-loss provisions, whereas a rebound in small-business activity would lift fee income.

For a deeper, data-driven view of HTBK’s valuation and risk profile, you might find the analytics on ValueRay worth a quick look.
