Regional finance reported Q2 net income growth of 4

Regional Finance reported Q2 net income growth of 4.8%, exceeding consensus estimates. The lender’s focus on expanding consumer loan offerings in the Southeast has fueled a steady 12-month share price climb of 9.2%. Married couples who file joint tax returns and earn up to $150,000 will get a $400 check. In this study, the digital economy ( Dieco ) is employed as a moderator and threshold variable to analyze the promotion of high-quality regional economic development by Sci-Tech finance. Drawing on the findings of existing research (Zhang et al., 2024 ; Lin et al., 2025 ), this study constructs a digital economy index through the entropy method. The index is composed of four sub-indices: total volume of telecommunications services, number of mobile phone users, quantity of digital talents, and heat of the digital economy. The quantity of digital talents is measured by the number of employees in the information transmission, computer services, and software industries. The heat of the digital economy is gauged by capturing the frequency of digital economy-related words in local government work reports via big data to analyze the degree of government attention to the digital economy. Regional Finance’s latest SEC filing highlights a loan book expansion of $58M, with consumer lending the largest growth segment over the past quarter.
