Net Income

•
Net income was $8.3 million for year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as a result of an increase in net interest income along with a decrease in noninterest expenses, primarily due to merger-related expenses for the 2024 period.
•
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $9.2 million as compared to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
•
Net income was $2.1 million for three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, as a result of an increase in net interest income along with a decrease in noninterest expenses.

Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $2.5 million as compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Results of Operations

•
Net interest income was $31.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $29.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was due to an increase in interest income on loans and interest-earning deposits offset by increases in deposit costs and a decrease in interest income on investment securities.
•
Net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased five basis point to 3.59% from 3.54% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

•
Noninterest income decreased $91,000 to $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to lower service charges on deposit accounts and the absence of a gain on the sale of other real estate recorded in 2024.
•
Non-interest expense decreased $2.1 million to $21.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the 2024 period, due mainly to a decrease in other expenses, and specifically merger-related expenses.
•
Net interest income was $8.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was due to an increase in interest income on loans and interest-earning deposits, partially offset by increases in deposit costs and a decrease in interest income on investment securities.
•
Net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased to 3.77% from 3.56% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in the margin relates to a decrease in yields on our interest-bearing liabilities of 21 basis points offset by a decrease in our yield on interest earning deposits and investments held to maturity as we sold the remainder of our investment held to maturity portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2025.
•
Noninterest income increased $154,000 to $315,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

Non-interest expense decreased $324,000 to $5.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the 2024 period, due mainly to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits and other expense.

Financial Condition

•
Total gross loans increased $28.6 million to $742.7 million at December 31, 2025 from $714.1 million at December 31, 2024. The increase was due to steady loan demand in construction and consumer loans, and commercial loans secured by real estate - owner occupied.
•
Non-owner occupied office loans totaled $40.6 million at December 31, 2025; the average LTV on these loans is 44.9%, including
