Texas Capital Bancshares reported second-quarter earnings that fell short of Wall Street expectations, with revenue of $335.5 million and earnings per share of $1.88. "The quarter reflected continued pressure on net interest income amid a challenging rate environment," Chief Executive Officer Rob C. Holmes said in a statement.
