Balance Sheet and Asset Quality

Total assets of $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2024 increased $4.2 million from December 31, 2023. Net loans held for investment decreased $69.3 million, or 6.5% from December 31, 2023 to $998.7 million at December 31, 2024, primarily driven by the following: decreases in consumer loans of $37.9 million, construction loans of $22.2 million, and commercial loans of $9.9 million, partially offset by increases in residential real estate loans of $2.6 million. Securities available-for-sale, at fair value, increased $13.8 million from December 31, 2023 to $218.1 million at December 31, 2024.

Total deposits of $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2024 increased $24.5 million, or 2.0%, from December 31, 2023. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $23.0 million, or 6.9%, savings deposits increased $3.8 million, or 0.6%, and time deposits decreased $2.3 million, or 0.9%. The increase in total deposits was primarily driven by increases from large commercial and municipal customers. Overnight repurchase agreements, other borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and subordinated notes decreased $27.7 million to $73.8 million at December 31, 2024 from $101.5 million at December 31, 2023, as the Company used excess liquidity to pay down high-cost borrowed funds. Short-term borrowings increased $2.0 million as of December 31, 2024 from December 31, 2023, due to borrowings under a new holding company line of credit executed in the fourth quarter.

The Company's total stockholders' equity at December 31, 2024 increased $7.2 million, or 6.7%, from December 31, 2023 to $114.0 million. The increase was primarily driven by net income, partially offset by cash dividend payments. The Bank remains well capitalized with a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 12.97% at December 31, 2024 as compared to 11.45% at December 31, 2023. The Bank's leverage ratio was 10.06% at December 31, 2024 as compared to 9.46% at December 31, 2023.

Non-performing assets (NPAs) totaled $2.7 million as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, and $2.2 million as of December 31, 2023. NPAs as a percentage of total assets were 0.19% at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.18% at September 30, 2024, and 0.15% at December 31, 2023. Non-accrual loans were $82 thousand at December 31, 2024, a decrease from $85 thousand at September 30, 2024, and a decrease from $188 thousand at December 31, 2023. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest decreased $268 thousand to $641 thousand at December 31, 2024 from $909 thousand at September 30, 2024 and decreased $1.1 million from $1.8 million at December 31, 2023. Repossessed assets were $2.0 million at December 31, 2024 compared to $1.7 million at September 30, 2024 and $215 thousand at December 31, 2023. The increase in repossessed assets from the prior periods was driven by the resolution of certain loans that were previously past due.

The Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $90 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $282 thousand during the third quarter of 2024 and $1.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2023. The provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2024 included a provision of $154 thousand for loans and a $64 thousand recovery for unfunded commitments. The allowance for credit losses (ACL) at December 31, 2024 was $11.6 million. The decrease in the ACL on loans during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2024 and fourth quarter of 2023 was due primarily to reduction in the size of the portfolio. The ACL on loans as a percentage of loans held for investment was 1.13% at December 31, 2024 compared to 1.14% at September 30, 2024, and 1.13% at December 31, 2023. Quarterly annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.16% for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 0.18% for the third quarter of 2024 and 0.39% for the fourth quarter of 2023. As of December 31, 2024, asset quality remains strong. Management believes the level of the ACL is sufficient to absorb expected losses in the loan portfolio; however, if elevated levels of risk are identified, the provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $12.3 million, a decrease of $58 thousand, or 0.5%, from the prior quarter and an increase of $391 thousand, or 3.3%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease from the linked quarter was primarily due to lower average balances of loans, partially offset by higher average balance of securities available for sale at higher average yields. The increase from the prior-year comparative quarter was due primarily to higher average earning asset balances at higher average yields partially offset by higher average balances of, and higher average rates on, interest-bearing liabilities. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net interest income was $48.2 million. The slight increase from the prior-year comparative period was due to higher average interest-bearing liabilities at higher average rates, partially offset by higher average earning assets at higher average earning yields.

Net Interest Margin (NIM) for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 3.52%, a decrease from 3.56% for the third quarter of 2024, and an increase from 3.45% for the prior year quarter. On a fully tax-equivalent basis (FTE) (non-GAAP), NIM was 3.53%, for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 3.57% for the third quarter of 2024 and 3.46% for the fourth quarter of 2023. Average earning asset balances for the fourth quarter increased $21.0 million at December 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 with yields on average earning assets increasing 7 basis points due to deployment of liquidity into higher earning assets. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $5.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2023 with costs increasing 4 basis points. The higher interest cost of liabilities was primarily due to higher interest rates on money market deposits, partially offset by decreases in short term average FHLB advances during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2024, average earning assets and average interest-bearing liabilities increased $25.8 million and $32.4 million, over the 2023 comparative period, respectively.

Average loans decreased $64.0 million, or 5.9%, for the fourth quarter compared to the same period of 2023. Average yields on loans were 22 basis points higher in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, the result of a higher interest rate environment. The extent to which changing interest rates will ultimately affect the Company's NIM is uncertain.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income was $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $3.5 million for both the third quarter of 2024 and the comparative quarter of 2023. The $228 thousand decrease during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the linked quarter was primarily driven by decreases in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges, commissions and fees, and larger losses on sales of repossessed assets, partially offset by an increase in fiduciary and asset management fees. The $249 thousand decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by decreases in mortgage banking income, fiduciary and asset management fees, as well as larger losses on sales of repossessed assets, partially offset by increases in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges, commissions and fees, and bank-owned life insurance income. Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $464 thousand to $13.4 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 primarily driven by decreases in mortgage banking income, and other service charges, commissions and fees, partially offset by increases in fiduciary and asset management fees and having no losses on sales of available-for-sale securities during the period. The decrease in mortgage banking income in the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 was due to declines in the volume of mortgage originations attributable to the Company's strategic shift in mortgage lending and changes in mortgage market conditions impacting the industry as a whole.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $12.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $12.4 million for the third quarter of 2024 and $12.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in expenses from the linked quarter of $306 thousand was primarily related to decreases in professional services, occupancy and equipment, and data processing, partially offset by increases in salaries and employee benefits and other operating expenses. The decrease in professional services from the linked quarter is primarily due to the settlement of two outstanding legal matters in the third quarter for $240 thousand. The decrease in expenses over the prior year quarter primarily reflected reductions due to the cost savings initiatives initiated in the first quarter of 2024. The noninterest expense reduction initiatives in 2024 reduced the employee headcount by approximately 12%. The increase in salaries and employee benefits in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by recognition of incentive compensation expense as a result of record net income. For the year ended December 31, 2024, noninterest expense decreased $898 thousand, or 1.8% over the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to decreases in salary and employee benefits, employee professional development, and other operating expenses, partially offset by increases in data processing, other taxes, and professional services.

Capital Management and Dividends

For the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company declared a dividend of $0.14 per share, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2023. The dividend represents a payout ratio of 24.7% of earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2024. The Board of Directors of the Company continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital requirements, and expected future earnings.

Total consolidated equity increased $7.2 million at December 31, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023, due primarily to net income and partially offset by cash dividend payments. Total consolidated equity decreased by $1.5 million from September 30, 2024 to December 31, 2024, due to $3.8 million of unrealized losses on securities available for sale driven by fluctuations in market interest rates. The Company's securities available-for-sale are primarily fixed income debt securities, and their unrealized loss position is a result of increases in market interest rates since the investments were acquired rather than credit quality issues. The Company expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest and unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Company or its subsidiaries.

At December 31, 2024, the book value per share of the Company's common stock was $22.44, and tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) was $22.09.
