** GBFH late Wednesday reported Q2 profit below Wall Street estimates, as elevated nonperforming assets and weaker margins weighed
** "While elevated nonperforming assets, retail credit card delinquencies, and net interest margin pressure impacted quarterly results, we have taken decisive actions to strengthen credit administration, optimize our balance sheet, and position the bank for improved financial performance going forward," GBank executive chairman and CEO Ed Nigro said
** Brokerage Raymond James trims EPS estimates to reflect lower near-term NIM and a more cautious view on credit costs
