EXTON, Pa., April 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marks a significant milestone for First Resource Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQX: FRSB), the holding company for First Resource Bank, as they proudly announced the appointment of Lauren Ranalli as the new President & Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Glenn Marshall who has retired after 19 years of dedicated service to the company. Ranalli, who co-founded the Bank alongside Marshall in 2005, steps into her new role with a wealth of experience and a steadfast commitment to the Bank's mission and values.

The decision to promote Ranalli to President & CEO was first announced in September of 2023 following Glenn Marshall's announcement of his retirement, which is effective as of today. Having long served as the Bank's Chief Financial Officer and most recently as President, Ranalli's extensive background in banking and finance puts her in a position to steer First Resource Bank toward continued growth and success.

Reflecting on the transition, Ranalli expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to lead First Resource Bank into its next chapter. "It's an honor to assume the role of President & CEO of First Resource Bank," said Ranalli. "Glenn and I embarked on this journey together back in 2005, and I am deeply committed to upholding the principles and vision we established. Glenn's mentorship, guidance, and unwavering belief in me even at a young age, to co-found First Resource Bank has been instrumental in shaping both my career and our organization's success. His leadership over the past 19 years has built a legacy of integrity, innovation, and unwavering dedication to our clients and community. I am honored to carry forward his legacy and lead our bank into its next chapter of growth and prosperity."

"As I pass the torch to Lauren Ranalli, my esteemed colleague of over two decades, I do so with immense pride and unwavering confidence in her leadership. Together, we envisioned and built this bank from the ground up, and I can attest that without Lauren's dedication, expertise, and vision, this venture would have never come to fruition. As I step back, I trust wholeheartedly in Lauren's ability to steer our bank towards even greater heights, knowing that her passion for our mission and her steadfast commitment to excellence will continue to drive our success," commented outgoing CEO, Glenn Marshall.

Marshall will continue his involvement with First Resource Bank as Vice Chair of the Board of Directors as well as serving as a member of numerous Board Committees.
