The increase in year-to-date net income compared to 2024 of $625,000 was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest expense of $1,764,000, and an increase in loan interest and fees of $1,361,000, partially offset by a reduction in securities interest of $838,000, a decrease in other interest and dividend income of $833,000, a reduction in other non-interest income of $322,000, a gain on sale of foreclosed real estate of $191,000 in 2024, an increase in provision for loan loss expense of $159,000, and an increase of $138,000 in income tax expense compared to the same period in 2024.
"To date, lower interest expense and interest income from higher loan balances have more than offset decreases in income related to rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board," said George W. Kinne, Jr., President and CEO, "With the path of future rate cuts uncertain, the Company has maintained a liquid balance sheet and continues to be well positioned to outperform peers in the near term."
