Both volume and rate increases on interest-earning assets have helped boost interest income in 1Q'24; however, a higher cost of funds and lower net interest rate spread continue to hamper growth in net interest income. The Company reported net interest income of $7.1 million for 1Q'24, a decrease of $120,000, or 1.7%, from the linked quarter and a decrease of $422,000, or 5.6% from 1Q'23. Average earning assets were up $8.5 million, or 1.1%, over the linked quarter and $43.1 million, or 5.6%, over 1Q'23 while the yield on average earning assets was 5.44% (1Q'24), compared to 5.40% (4Q'23) and 4.78% (1Q'23). The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities has risen from 1.24% in 1Q'23 to 2.75% in 1Q'24, reflecting the rising rate environment and a change in funding mix. The Company's net interest margin ("NIM") for the first quarter of 2024 was 3.51%, compared to 3.61% (4Q'23) and 3.92% (1Q'23).

Provision for Credit Losses

Credit loss expense was $211,000 for 1Q'24, compared to $707,000 (4Q'23) and $243,000 (1Q'23) and primarily reflects $20.7 million, or 3.2%, net loan growth over the linked quarter. The higher level of credit loss expense in 4Q'23 primarily reflects specific reserves required by several new individually evaluated loans, followed by loan growth of $17.9 million during 4Q'23 and environmental factors attributed to a greater number of past due loans in the residential mortgage sector during the fourth quarter.

Total noninterest income	$	453	$	492	$	441		(7.9	)%		2.7	%

Compared to the linked quarter, the 7.9% decrease in noninterest income is mostly attributed to decreases in mortgage banking revenue and service charges and fees on deposit accounts (namely non-sufficient funds "NSF" fees), partially offset by the 16.2%, or $22,000, increase in debit card/ATM revenue. Compared to the same period a year ago, a $17,000, or 31.5% increase, in mortgage banking revenue was mostly offset by a $16,000, or 18.8%, decrease in services charges and fees on deposit accounts again mostly due to lower NSF fees.

Total noninterest expense	$	4,841	$	4,646	$	4,455		4.2	%		8.7	%

Operating expenses were up 4.2% over the linked quarter due mostly to increased expense for software maintenance, amortization and other (mostly due to a core conversion completed in 4Q'23), followed by higher marketing and salaries and employee benefits expense. Operating expenses are up 8.7% over the same period a year ago mostly attributed to higher expense for software maintenance, amortization and other and salaries and employee benefits, followed by increases in marketing, FDIC deposit insurance, and other noninterest expense (mostly travel). FTEs have increased from 109 at March 31, 2023 to 114 at March 31, 2024.

Financial Condition

At March 31, 2024, the Company reported $862.7 million in total assets, $751.7 million in deposits, and $666.8 million in net portfolio loans. This compares to $854.5 million in total assets, $748.7 million in deposits, and $646.1 million in net portfolio loans at December 31, 2023.

The majority of the Company's debt securities are categorized as available-for-sale ("AFS") and carried on the balance sheet at a fair value of $117.4 million at March 31, 2024. The portfolio also includes $11.9 million in debt securities classified as held-to-maturity ("HTM") with a fair value of $10.3 million. HTM securities consist of U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities, each of which is expected to recoup any unrealized losses over its holding period as the debt securities move to maturity. Management believes that the Company has ample liquidity and available borrowing capacity to support holding these securities until maturity.

Gross loans increased $20.9 million, or 3.2%, since December 31, 2023 with residential real estate and construction loans reporting the largest dollar volume increases. At March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses of $5.8 million, represented 0.86% of gross loans compared to $5.6 million, or 0.86% of gross loans, at December 31, 2023.

At March 31, 2024, book value per share was $24.71 with 3,295,265 common shares outstanding.

Asset Quality

At March 31, 2024, the Bank had eleven nonperforming loans totaling $3.4 million. The balance of nonperforming loans was divided among residential and home equity loans (59.5%), commercial loans (22.2%), construction loans (16.7%) and commercial real estate loans (1.6%). Charge-offs during 1Q'24 totaled $27,000 and recoveries totaled $3,000. The ratio of nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets was 0.40%. Management believes that the allowance for credit losses which was $5.8 million, or 0.86% of gross loans, at March 31, 2024 is adequate.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures and ratios we present including "pre-tax, pre-provision ("PTPP") net earnings," "PTPP return on average common equity," "PTPP return on average assets," and "adjusted average loan yield" are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We refer to those financial measures and ratios as "non-GAAP financial measures." We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results.

We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present, and future periods.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
