Noninterest Expense*.*Noninterest expenses increased $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024. This was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits and occupancy and equipment expenses of $1.3 million and $472,000, respectively. The increase in compensation and benefits is due to increases in salary and wages associated with annual cost of living and performance related adjustments as well as increases in the cost of Company-provided health insurance benefits. The increase in occupancy and equipment expenses is primarily due to costs associated with snow removal across the Company’s branch network in the first quarter of 2025, as well as losses on the disposal of premises and equipment associated with two of the Bank’s branches, the upgrade of the Company’s call center system, and the demolition of one of the Bank’s branches.
Current report
The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to support loan growth and deposit withdrawals, to satisfy financial commitments and to take advantage of investment opportunities. The Bank is guided by a board-approved Liquidity Management Policy and the Interagency Policy Statement on Funding and Liquidity Risk Management. The Liquidity Management Policy is overseen by the Bank’s Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) which is chaired by the Bank’s Chief Financial Officer and comprised of line of business leaders at the Bank and one member of the Bank’s Board of Directors. Management monitors the Bank’s liquidity position on an ongoing basis, and the ALCO meets quarterly to review liquidity metrics and compliance with the Liquidity Management Policy. As directed by the Liquidity Management Policy, the ALCO evaluates a number of liquidity-based ratios including a comparison of liquid assets to total assets, consistent with policy guidelines. The Liquidity Management Policy also outlines required liquidity stress testing and contingency funding planning. Stress scenarios consider, among other factors, utilization of established borrowing lines with the FHLB, the FRB’s Discount Window, and other financial institutions, the issuance of brokered deposits, deposit runoff at various levels of severity, funding of unfunded loan commitments, and scenarios assuming limited access to certain funding sources. Stress testing results, contingency funding plans, and related processes, including periodic testing of borrowing lines and brokered deposit capabilities, are reviewed by the ALCO and reported to the Board of Directors.

Previous report
Provision for Loan Losses*.* Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the FASB ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments–* Credit Losses (Topic 326)*, as amended, and commonly referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss model ("CECL"), under the modified retrospective method. The adoption replaced the allowance for loan losses with the ACL on loans on the consolidated balance sheets and replaced the related provision for loan losses with the provision for credit losses on loans on the consolidated statements of income. Upon adoption, the Company recorded an increase in the beginning ACL on loans of $561,000, increasing the ACL on loans as a percentage of loans receivable to 1.29% as compared to 1.20% at December 31, 2022 prior to adoption. In addition, the Company established an ACL related to unfunded loan commitments of $131,000 upon adoption of CECL. The use of the modified retrospective method of adoption resulted in the Company recording a $529,000 reduction (net of tax) in retained earnings as of January 1, 2023.
Previous report
The $40,000 net gain on sale of securities was a result of the Company’s regular evaluation of its entire securities portfolio. During 2023, the Company selected and sold securities available for sale with a market value of $20.6 million and an amortized cost basis of $20.8 million resulting in a net loss of $114,000. The net loss was more than offset by the $157,000 gain on sale of the Company’s VISA Class B stock in September 2023. The strategy for both sales was the enhancement of long-term earnings.
Previous report
Noninterest Expense*.* Noninterest expenses increased $940,000 for 2023 as compared to 2022. This was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits, data processing expenses, and other expenses of $305,000, $417,000 and $372,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods. The increases were partially offset by decreases of $53,000 and $77,000 in professional fees and occupancy and equipment expenses, respectively. The increase in other expenses was due primarily to increases in FDIC insurance premiums and fraud losses of $203,000 and $163,000, respectively, in addition to general inflationary increases across multiple other expenses. These were partially offset by a $128,000 decrease in expenses, including the payout of loss claims, associated with the Company’s wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary which ceased regular operations in August and was formally dissolved in December 2023.
Previous report
On September 24, 2020, the Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement with the SEC. The shelf registration permits the Company to issue up to $35 million of debt and equity securities, of which $35 million remains available, subject to Board authorization and market conditions. While we seek to preserve flexibility with respect to cash requirements, there can be no assurance that market conditions would permit us to sell securities on acceptable terms at any given time or at all.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in the tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets increased from 3.10% in 2022 to 3.96% in 2023, primarily due to the increase in short-term interest rates by the Federal Open Market Committee during 2022 and 2023.

Interest and dividends on investment securities (including FHLB stock) increased $1.9 million for 2025 compared to 2024 due to an increase in the tax-equivalent yield on investment securities from 2.25% in 2024 to 2.80% in 2025, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of investment securities from $455.1 million for 2024 to $433.8 million for 2025. Other interest income increased $1.9 million for 2025 as compared to 2024 primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits with banks from $52.0 million in 2024 to $104.4 million in 2025 partially offset by the yield of interest-bearing deposits with banks decreasing from 5.09% to 4.31% when comparing the two periods.

These were partially offset by increases in ATM and debit card fees and service charges on deposit accounts of $144,000 and $70,000, respectively, in addition to a decrease of $207,000 in the unrealized loss on equity securities.

Securities available for sale, at fair value, consisting primarily of U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, U.S. agency notes and bonds, Treasury notes and bonds and municipal obligations, decreased** **from $437.3 million at December 31, 2023 to $389.2 million at December 31, 2024. Principal repayments of $28.1 million, maturities of $63.0 million and sales of $19.2 million during 2024 were only partially offset by purchases of $61.7 million of securities. There was also an unrealized gain of $1.6 million on the securities available for sale portfolio during 2024 due primarily to stabilizing market rates during the year. The Bank invests excess cash in securities that provide liquidity, yield and low credit risk. Accordingly, we purchase mortgage-backed securities to provide cash flow for loan demand and deposit changes, we purchase U.S Treasury and federal agency notes for short-term yield and low risk, and municipals are purchased to improve our tax equivalent yield focusing on longer term profitability.

Previous wording
Liquidity refers to the ability of a financial institution to generate sufficient cash flow to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals and pay operating expenses. The Bank’s primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from loan repayments, maturing securities and borrowings from the FHLB or FRB. While loan repayments and maturities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. At December 31, 2024, the Bank had cash and cash equivalents of $105.9 million and securities available-for-sale with a fair value of $389.2 million. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, it has additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB, the FRB’s Discount Window through the pledging of additional eligible collateral securities, collateral eligible for repurchase agreements and unsecured federal funds purchased lines of credit with other financial institutions.
