About QCR Holdings, Inc.
About QCR Holdings, Inc.
QCR Holdings operates four separately chartered community banks — Quad City Bank & Trust, Cedar Rapids Bank & Trust, Community State Bank, and Guaranty Bank — serving the Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, Des Moines, and Springfield/Joplin markets across Iowa and Missouri, with combined segment assets of approximately $9.7 billion as of December 31, 2025. Consolidated loans and leases totaled $7.17 billion, up from $6.78 billion a year earlier, funded primarily by FDIC-insured deposits.
QCR Holdings earns net interest income on the spread between loan and securities yields and deposit and borrowing costs, supplemented by trust fees, investment advisory and management fees, deposit service charges, capital markets revenue, and gains on sale of residential and government-guaranteed loans. Each subsidiary bank sets its own in-house lending limits below the Iowa or Missouri legal lending limit — ranging from $7.25 million to $23 million by risk tier — to manage single-borrower concentration, and the consolidated loan book spans construction and land development (18%), multi-family (25%), C&I (23% combined revolving and other), and CRE (23% combined owner- and non-owner-occupied) categories. The Federal Reserve is the primary federal regulator for the holding company and all four banks, with the Iowa Division of Banking additionally overseeing QCBT, CRBT, and CSB and the Missouri Division of Finance overseeing GB. The company discontinued new originations through its m2 equipment-leasing subsidiary in September 2024.
Show full overview
QCR Holdings' loan book concentrates more heavily in multi-family and construction lending than the typical community bank, with multi-family loans alone comprising 25% of the consolidated portfolio — and as much as 32% at Cedar Rapids Bank & Trust specifically — while construction and land development add another 18% consolidated. Because both categories carry above-average sensitivity to refinancing conditions and construction-cost inflation, and because the company reviews CRE concentrations against risk-based capital only on a quarterly cadence rather than continuously, a sharp move in long-term rates or a regional multi-family oversupply would test loan quality at CRBT before it shows up company-wide.
