Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: CFFN)

Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. is a Maryland corporation that owns Capitol Federal Savings Bank, a federally chartered and insured savings bank headquartered in Topeka, Kansas. The Bank attracts deposits from individuals and businesses and deploys those funds primarily into commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, as well as first mortgage loans on owner occupied 1 to 4 family residences. It also invests in investment securities and mortgage backed securities, and offers a full suite of deposit products, treasury management services, and private banking and wealth management offerings. Through its subsidiary, the company operates as a regional banking institution focused on retail and commercial banking services.

The company’s revenue is derived mainly from net interest income, which equals the interest earned on loans, securities, and cash balances minus the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. In addition, the Bank generates fee based income from its treasury management services, private banking, trust and wealth management activities, and other banking services such as cash flow optimization tools and payment processing. Interest rate risk management and prudent underwriting support the stability of the interest earning asset base, while deposit pricing and loan pricing are set based on competitor surveys and credit risk assessments.
