Borrowings mostly take the form of FHLB advances. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, FHLB advances were $117.5 million and $262.5 million, respectively. FHLB open advances were $80.0 million and $225.0 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For the same periods, term advances were $37.5 million and $37.5 million, respectively. Funds from deposit growth not used to fund loan production were used to pay off borrowings.

The weighted-average interest rate of all FHLB advances at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was 4.63% and 4.75%, respectively.

The FHLB maximum amount outstanding at any month end during each of the year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $232.5 million and $350.0 million, respectively.

The following is a summary of contractual maturities of FHLB advances greater than twelve months:

Subordinated debentures were $130.8 million and $130.6 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Subordinated debentures are comprised of fixed-to-floating subordinated notes of $108.6 million and $108.5 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures of $22.2 million and $22.1 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. See “Note 8 – Borrowings and Subordinated Debentures” to the consolidated financial statements for more details.

Stockholders' Equity

Stockholders’ equity was $751.5 million and $732.2 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Net income, net of $8.3 million of dividends paid, added $9.4 million to stockholders' equity for the period, as did $0.9 million of share-based compensation, a $10.4 million decrease in unrealized after-tax losses on securities available for sale and a $0.3 million decrease in unrealized after-tax losses on cash flow hedges due to changes in interest rates. In addition, the Company repurchased 50,000 shares of common stock during the period at an average share price of $22.49 for a total cost of $1.1 million. At March 31, 2025, 1,180,500 shares remain under the Company's share repurchase program.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The spread between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities is the principal component of net interest income, and interest rate changes substantially affect our financial performance. We emphasize capital protection through stable earnings. In order to achieve stable earnings, we prudently manage our assets and liabilities and closely monitor the percentage changes in net interest income and equity value in relation to limits established within our guidelines.

The Company performs simulation modeling to estimate the potential effects of interest rate changes. The following table summarizes one of the stress simulations performed to forecast the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the value of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflected on our balance sheet (i.e., an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve of the magnitude indicated below) as of March 31, 2025. The Company compares this stress simulation to policy limits, which specify the maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure over a 1- to 12-month and a 13- to 24- month horizon, given the basis point adjustment in interest rates reflected below.

The estimated sensitivity does not necessarily represent our forecast, and the results may not be indicative of actual changes to our net interest income. These estimates are based upon a number of assumptions, including the timing and magnitude of interest rate changes, prepayments on loans receivable and securities, pricing strategies on loans receivable and deposits, and replacement of asset and liability cash flows.

The key assumptions, based upon loans receivable, securities and deposits, are as follows:

While the assumptions used are based on current economic and local market conditions, there is no assurance as to the predictive nature of these conditions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change.
