Current report
Interest income totaled $30.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and decreased $337,000, or 1.1%, compared to $30.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributed to a 78bps decrease in the average yield on other earning assets, which consist of interest-bearing cash balances in other financial institutions, partially offset by a $35.5 million, or 17.7%, increase in average other earning asset balances.
Current report
Interest expense totaled $15.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and decreased $1.2 million, or 7.2%, compared to $16.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in interest expense was primarily attributed to a 44bps decrease in the average rate of interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a $22.6 million, or 1.6%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits.
Current report
Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 totaled $8.3 million and increased $584,000, or 7.5%, compared to $7.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $371,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, coupled with a $165,000 increase in other noninterest expense. The increase in salaries and benefits was primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation expense while the increase in other noninterest income was primarily the result of a $90,000 loss on the disposal of assets from the closure of our Ohio City branch.
Current report
Net interest income totaled $28.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and increased $1.3 million, or 4.7%, compared to net interest income of $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $2.6 million, or 8.2%, decrease in interest expense, partially offset by a $1.4 million, or 2.4%, decrease in interest income. The decrease in interest expense was attributed to a 38bps decrease in the average cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a $19.6 million, or 1.3%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities outstanding. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributed to a 25bps decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a $38.5 million, or 2.0%, increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding. The net interest margin of 2.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased 7bps compared to the net interest margin of 2.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The decrease in interest income was primarily attributed to an 82bps decrease in the average rate of other earning assets, which consist of interest-bearing cash balances in other financial institutions, partially offset by a $34.8 million, or 18.1%, increase in average other earning asset balances.
Current report
Interest expense totaled $30.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and decreased $2.6 million, or 8.2%, compared to $32.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report
Provision for credit losses. There was $1.5 million in provision for credit losses expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which reflected a decrease of $461,000, compared to a $2.0 million provision for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily the result of a $407,000 decline in the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments. The decline in the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments was driven by a $59.7 million decline in unfunded commitments in construction loan categories during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a $24.5 million decline in those categories during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $90,000 compared to net charge-offs of $74,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Current report
Noninterest income. Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $3.2 million and increased $402,000, or 14.4%, compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $368,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts, which was driven by pricing increases implemented in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Current report
Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $16.6 million and increased $941,000, or 6.0%, compared to $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $516,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits and a $335,000 increase in advertising and marketing expense. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily driven by higher payroll and related tax expense from the expansion of our commercial banking regional teams throughout our footprint, coupled with higher stock-based compensation expense. The increase in advertising and marketing expense was predominantly due to some additional marketing campaigns during the first quarter of 2026.

Previous wording
The reserve on individually evaluated loans is based on management’s estimate of the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate or the fair value of collateral, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. On at least a quarterly basis, management reviews each individually evaluated loan to determine whether it should have a reserve or partial charge-off. Management relies on appraisals or internal evaluations to help make this determination. Determination of whether to use an updated appraisal or internal evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, the age of the loan and the most recent appraisal, condition of the property and whether we expect the collateral to go through the foreclosure or liquidation process. Management considers the need for a downward adjustment to the valuation based on current market conditions and on management’s analysis, judgment and experience. The amount ultimately charged-off for these loans may be different from the reserve, as the ultimate liquidation of the collateral and/or projected cash flows may be different from management’s estimates.

Loans that contain interest only payments may present a higher risk than those loans with an amortizing payment that includes periodic principal reductions. Interest only loans are primarily commercial lines of credit secured by business assets and inventory, and consumer home equity lines of credit secured by the borrower’s primary residence. Due to the fluctuations in business assets and inventory of our commercial borrowers, CFBank has increased risk due to a potential decline in collateral values without a corresponding decrease in the outstanding principal. Interest only commercial lines of credit totaled $122.6 million, or 32.4%, of CFBank’s commercial portfolio, at March 31, 2026, compared to $111.2 million, or 30.1%, at December 31, 2025.

The Holding Company has a credit facility with a third-party bank. Prior to April 30, 2025, the credit facility had a borrowing limit of $35 million with a revolving feature until May 21, 2024, at which time the outstanding balance was converted to a 10-year term note on a graduated 10-year amortization. Borrowings on the credit facility bore interest at a fixed rate of 3.85% until May 21, 2026, at which time the interest rate then would convert to a floating rate equal to PRIME with a floor of 3.25%. Effective April 30, 2025, an additional $10 million revolving line of credit was added to the credit facility and the interest rate was amended to reset the fixed rate to 6.00% until May 21, 2026, at which time the rate will convert to a floating rate equal to PRIME.

The decrease in interest expense was primarily attributed to a 37bps decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a $30.6 million, or 2.0%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributed to a 21bps decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a $48.5 million, or 2.5%, increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding.
