Financial Results for the First Quarter

Earnings

Net income for the first quarter 2025 was $5.4 million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 17.1%, from the prior quarter, and an increase of $0.9 million, or 20.8%, from the prior year quarter. EPS improved to $0.77 for the first quarter 2025 compared to $0.66 for the prior quarter and $0.63 for the prior year quarter.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income for the first quarter 2025 was $15.3 million, a decrease of $0.1 million from the prior quarter, and an increase of $0.5 million from the prior year quarter.

Interest income decreased $0.6 million in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, driven primarily by lower average interest earning assets, while interest expense decreased $1.1 million compared to the prior year quarter. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, was 3.67% for the current quarter, compared to 3.55% for the prior quarter, and 3.39% for the prior year quarter.

The yield earned on average loans held for investment increased to 5.89%, on an FTE basis, for the first quarter 2025, compared to 5.86% for the prior quarter and 5.75% for the prior year quarter.

The average cost of deposits was 2.44% for the first quarter 2025, compared to 2.49% for the prior quarter and 2.61% for the prior year quarter. Non-interest bearing demand deposits as a percent of total deposits was 27.7% as of March 31, 2025, compared to 25.1% and 25.7% at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

Non-interest Income

Total non-interest income for the first quarter 2025 was $3.5 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.7%, from the prior quarter, and an increase of $0.4 million, or 14.7%, from the prior year quarter.

Compared to the prior quarter, the decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to lower gains on other real estate owned.

The increase in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to an increase in earnings on bank owned life insurance partially offset by a decrease in the gains on sale of mortgage loans.

Non-interest Expense

Total non-interest expense for the first quarter 2025 was $12.5 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 3.3%, from the prior quarter, and a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.6%, from the prior year quarter.

The first quarter 2025 efficiency ratio was 66.64% compared to 68.48% and 70.78% for the prior quarter and prior year quarter, respectively. The improvement in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to higher net interest margin and lower non-interest expenses in the current quarter.

Loans

Loans held for investment increased $4.2 million, or 1.2% annualized, to $1.5 billion as of March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, and decreased $48.5 million, or 12.9% annualized, from March 31, 2024.

Investments

Investments increased $2.8 million, or 1.2%, to $226.6 million as of March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, and increased $36.8 million, or 19.4%, from March 31, 2024.

Asset Quality

Non-performing assets to total loans was 0.21% at March 31, 2025, compared to 0.29% and 0.69% at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Non-performing assets totaled $3.1 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $4.2 million and $10.5 million at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The decrease in non-performing assets in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter was primarily the result of the prior year quarter including a significant commercial loan charge-off and the foreclosure and subsequent sale of two commercial real estate loans.

In the first quarter 2025, the Company had net loan charge-offs of $0.02 million, or 0% of average loans, compared to net loan charge-offs of $0.04 million, or 0.01% of average loans, and $0.07 million, or 0.02% of average loans, in the prior quarter and prior year quarter, respectively.

The Company released provision for credit losses of $0.3 million for the first quarter 2025 compared to providing a $0.3 million provision in the prior quarter, and a release of provision of $0.2 million for the prior year quarter.

The allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2025 was $21.8 million, or 1.48% of outstanding loans, and 885.01% of non-performing loans. At December 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was $22.0 million, or 1.50% of outstanding loans, and 802.48% of non-performing loans. At March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was $23.7 million, or 1.56% of outstanding loans, and 276.93% of non-performing loans. The allowance for credit losses represents management's best estimate of expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio and is commensurate with risks in the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2025 as determined by management.

Deposits

Total deposits at March 31, 2025 were $1.5 billion, an increase of $10.7 million, or 2.8% annualized, from December 31, 2024, and an increase of $16.0 million, or 4.2% annualized, from March 31, 2024. The increase in deposits at March 31, 2025 as compared to March 31, 2024 was primarily a result of an increase in demand and savings deposits.

Capital

The Company maintains its "well capitalized" regulatory capital position. At March 31, 2025, capital ratios were as follows: total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets 14.94%; tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets 13.69%; tier 1 leverage 11.64%; and common equity to assets 8.15%.

Pursuant to the Company's 2019 Repurchase Plan, management is given discretion to determine the number and pricing of the shares to be purchased under the plan, as well as the timing of any such purchases. The Company repurchased 15,856 common shares under the repurchase plan during the first quarter of 2025 at an average cost of $27.51 per share totaling $0.4 million. As of March 31, 2025, $3.5 million remains available for share repurchases pursuant to the plan.
