Net income increased by $569,000, or 3.4%, in the third quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2024. This increase was due to an increase in net interest income of $1.5 million and a decrease in provision for credit losses of $1.1 million, offset by increases in noninterest expense of $1.0 million and income tax expense of $608,000 and a decrease in noninterest income of $437,000.

      Interest income totaled $54.0 million for the third quarter of 2025, a slight decrease of $46,000, or 0.1%, from the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to a 12 basis points decrease in the loan yield and a $12.5 million decrease in the average interest-earning cash balance, offset by a $24.7 million increase in average loan balances. As compared to the third quarter of 2024, interest income for the third quarter of 2025 increased by $170,000, or 0.3%, primarily due to a $59.5 million increase in average loan balances and a $4.1 million increase in the average total investments balance, offset by an 83 basis points decrease in the total investments yield and a six basis points decrease in the loan yield.

      Interest expense totaled $22.2 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $340,000, or 1.6%, from the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to a 43 basis points increase in interest-bearing demand deposit costs coupled with a $25.8 million increase in average interest-bearing demand deposit balances and a $20.0 million increase in average time deposit balances, offset by a $58.3 million decrease in average money market balances.   As compared to the third quarter of 2024, interest expense for the third quarter of 2025 decreased by $1.3 million, or 5.7%, primarily due to a 33 basis points decrease in deposit costs coupled with a $10.4 million decrease in average deposit balances, offset by a $49.3 million increase in the average borrowings balance. The Company currently has interest rate derivative agreements totaling $950.0 million that are designated as cash flow hedges of our deposit accounts indexed to the Effective Federal Funds Rate (currently 4.09% as of September 30, 2025). The weighted average pay rate for these interest rate derivatives is 2.70%. During the third quarter of 2025, we recorded a credit to interest expense of $3.8 million from the benefit received on these interest rate derivatives compared to a benefit of $4.2 million and $6.4 million recorded during the second quarter of 2025 and the third quarter of 2024, respectively.

      The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 3.68% compared to 3.77% for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of nine basis points. The yield on average interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2025 decreased by ten basis points to 6.24% from 6.34% for the second quarter of 2025, while the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2025 increased by three basis points to 3.42% from 3.39% for the second quarter of 2025.

Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $13.6 million from the second quarter of 2025 as average interest-bearing deposits decreased by $12.4 million and average borrowings decreased by $1.2 million.

      As compared to the third quarter of 2024, the net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025 increased by 10 basis points to 3.68% from 3.58%, primarily due to a 27 basis points decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.57 billion, offset by a 12 basis points decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets of $3.43 billion. Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2025 increased by $63.6 million from the third quarter of 2024, due to a $59.5 million increase in average loans and a $4.1 million increase in average total investments.

      Noninterest Income

      Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2025 was $6.2 million, an increase of $445,000, or 7.8%, from the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher mortgage loan origination fees, service charges on deposit accounts and servicing income from our Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans, offset by lower gains on sale and servicing income from our residential mortgage loans, gains on sale of our SBA loans and other income. SBA loan sales totaled $13.4 million (sales premium of 6.13%) during the third quarter of 2025 compared to $20.7 million (sales premium of 5.66%) during the second quarter of 2025. Mortgage loan originations totaled $168.6 million during the third quarter of 2025 compared to $93.2 million during the second quarter of 2025.

During the third quarter of 2025, we recorded a $166,000 fair value adjustment gain on our SBA servicing asset compared to a fair value adjustment charge of $345,000 during the second quarter of 2025. We also recorded a $19,000 fair value impairment recovery on our mortgage servicing asset during the third quarter of 2025 compared to a $28,000 fair value impairment recovery recorded during the second quarter of 2025.

      Compared to the third quarter of 2024, noninterest income for the third quarter of 2025 decreased by $437,000, or 6.6%, primarily due to lower gains on sale and servicing income from our SBA loans, gains on sale of our residential mortgage loans and other income partially from lower unrealized gains on our equity securities, offset by higher mortgage loan origination fees and servicing income. During the third quarter of 2024, we recorded a $202,000 fair value adjustment gain on our SBA servicing asset and a $252,000 fair value impairment charge on our mortgage servicing asset.

      Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $17.4 million, a decrease of $375,000, or 2.1%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower gains on sale and servicing income from our SBA loans and gains on sale from our residential mortgage loans, offset by higher mortgage loan origination fees and servicing income, service charges on deposit accounts and other income from unrealized gains recognized on our equity securities and increased bank owned life insurance income.

      Noninterest Expense

      Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2025 totaled $14.7 million, an increase of $561,000, or 4.0%, from $14.1 million for the second quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits due to higher commissions paid from higher loan volume and stock-based compensation, as well as higher data processing and loan-related expenses, partially offset by lower security expenses, SEC related expenses and First IC merger-related expenses. Included in other noninterest expenses during the third quarter of 2025 were $301,000 of First IC merger-related expenses compared to $333,000 of merger-related expenses during the second quarter of 2025.

      Compared to the third quarter of 2024, noninterest expense during the third quarter of 2025 increased by $1.0 million, or 7.4%, primarily due to higher salary and employee benefits, FDIC insurance premiums, data processing expenses, professional fees, security expense, loan related expenses and First IC merger-related expenses, offset by lower occupancy and other real estate owned related expenses.

      Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $42.6 million, an increase of $3.5 million, or 9.0%, from $39.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits partially due to higher base salaries, commissions, employee insurance and stock based compensation, as well as higher expenses related to depreciation, occupancy, data processing, security, loans and professional services. These expense increases were partially offset by lower FDIC insurance premiums and other real estate owned related expenses. Included in other noninterest expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $897,000 of First IC merger-related expenses.

      The Company's efficiency ratio was 38.7% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 37.2% and 37.0% for the second quarter of 2025 and third quarter of 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the efficiency ratio was 38.1% compared to 36.9% for the same period in 2024.

      Income Tax Expense

      The Company's effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 was 27.6%, compared to 28.9% for the second quarter of 2025 and 26.3% for the third quarter of 2024. The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 27.6% compared to 27.4% for the same period in 2024.

      Balance Sheet

      Total Assets

      Total assets were $3.63 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $13.8 million, or 0.4%, from $3.62 billion at June 30, 2025, and an increase of $60.3 million, or 1.7%, from $3.57 billion at September 30, 2024. The $13.8 million increase in total assets at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025 was primarily due to increases in loans held for sale of $232.7 million and other assets of $2.2 million, partially offset by decreases in loans held for investment of $161.1 million, cash and due from banks of $59.7 and interest rate derivatives of $3.2 million. The $60.3 million increase in total assets at September 30, 2025 compared to September 30, 2024 was primarily due to increases in loans held for sale of $233.1 million, other assets of $16.4 million, equity securities of $8.0 million, bank owned life insurance of $2.5 million, Federal Home Loan Bank stock of $2.4 million and accrued interest receivable of $1.2 million, partially offset by decreases in loans held for investment of $127.4 million, cash and due from banks of $64.8 million, interest rate derivatives of $9.5 million and securities available for sale of $2.8 million. 

      Our investment securities portfolio made up only 0.94% of our total assets at September 30, 2025 compared to 0.93% and 0.81% at June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively.

      Loans

      Loans held for investment were $2.96 billion at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $161.1 million, or 5.2%, compared to $3.12 billion at June 30, 2025, and a decrease of $127.4 million, or 4.1%, compared to $3.09 billion at September 30, 2024. The decrease in loans at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025 was due to a $170.5 million decrease in residential mortgage loans and a $4.4 million decrease in commercial and industrial loans, offset by an $11.1 million increase in commercial real estate loans and a $2.3 million increase in construction and development loans. Loans classified as held for sale totaled $237.7 million at September 30, 2025 compared to $5.0 million and $4.6 million at June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. The significant increase in loans held for sale during the third quarter of 2025 was done to provide the liquidity needed for the upcoming First IC merger.

      Deposits

      Total deposits were $2.69 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $3.6 million, or 0.1%, compared to total deposits of $2.69 billion at June 30, 2025, and a decrease of $30.0 million, or 1.1%, compared to total deposits of $2.72 billion at September 30, 2024. The increase in total deposits at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025 was due to a $15.9 million increase in money market accounts (including a $4.3 million decrease in brokered money market accounts) and a $15.7 million increase in time deposits, offset by a $23.3 million decrease in interest-bearing demand deposits, a $4.5 million decrease in noninterest-bearing demand deposits and a $271,000 decrease in savings accounts.

      Noninterest-bearing deposits were $544.4 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $548.9 million at June 30, 2025 and $552.5 million at September 30, 2024. Noninterest-bearing deposits constituted 20.2% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, compared to 20.4% of total deposits at June 30, 2025 and 20.3% at September 30, 2024. Interest-bearing deposits were $2.15 billion at September 30, 2025, compared to $2.14 billion at June 30, 2025 and $2.17 billion at September 30, 2024. Interest-bearing deposits constituted 79.8% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, compared to 79.6% at June 30, 2025 and 79.7% at September 30, 2024.

      Uninsured deposits were 26.1% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, compared to 25.1% and 23.6% at June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, we had $1.29 billion of available borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank ($657.8 million), Federal Reserve Discount Window ($575.7 million) and various other financial institutions (fed fund lines totaling $52.5 million).

      Asset Quality

      The Company recorded a credit provision for credit losses of $543,000 during the third quarter of 2025, compared to a provision for credit losses of $129,000 during the second quarter of 2025 and a provision for credit losses of $582,000 during the third quarter of 2024. The credit provision recorded during the third quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the decrease in reserves allocated to our individually analyzed loans, as well as the decrease in general reserves allocated to our residential mortgage loan portfolio as a large amount of residential mortgage loans were moved from loans held for investment to loans held for sale during the third quarter of 2025. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in general reserves allocated to our commercial real estate loan portfolio. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans for the third quarter of 2025 was 0.03%, compared to net charge-offs of 0.01% for the second quarter of 2025 and 0.00% for the third quarter of 2024.

      Nonperforming assets totaled $14.0 million, or 0.38% of total assets, at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.2 million from $15.2 million, or 0.42% of total assets, at June 30, 2025, and a decrease of $1.9 million from $15.8 million, or 0.44% of total assets, at September 30, 2024. The decrease in nonperforming assets at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025 was due to a $1.4 million decrease in nonaccrual loans offset by a $175,000 increase in other real estate owned.  

      Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.60% at September 30, 2025, compared to 0.60% at both June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 137.66% at September 30, 2025, compared to 129.76% at June 30, 2025 and 129.85% at September 30, 2024, respectively.

      Forward-Looking Statements

      Statements in this press release regarding future events and our expectations and beliefs about our future financial performance and financial condition, as well as trends in our business and markets, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and may be identified by references to a future period or periods by the use of the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "project," "outlook," or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may." The forward-looking statements in this press release should not be relied on because they are based on current information and on assumptions that we make about future events and circumstances that are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond our control. As a result of those risks and uncertainties, and other factors, our actual financial results in the future could differ, possibly materially, from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release and could cause us to make changes to our future plans. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the impact of current and future economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry, including the effects of declines in the real estate market, tariffs or trade wars (including reduced consumer spending, lower economic growth or recession, reduced demand for U.S. exports, disruptions to supply chains, and decreased demand for other banking products and services), high unemployment rates, inflationary pressures, increasing insurance costs, changes in interest rates, including changes to the federal funds rate, which could have an adverse effect on the Company's profitability; impact of changes in interest rates on our financial projections, models and guidance and slowdowns in economic growth, as well as the financial stress on borrowers as a result of the foregoing; uncertain duration of trade conflicts; magnitude of the impact that the proposed tariffs may have on our customers' businesses; potential impacts of adverse developments in the banking industry, including impacts on customer confidence, deposits, liquidity and the regulatory response thereto; risks arising from media coverage of the banking industry; risks arising from perceived instability in the banking sector; changes in prices, values and sales volumes of residential and commercial real estate; developments in our mortgage banking business, including loan modifications, general demand, and the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance; competition in our markets that may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing margins and net interest income; legislation or regulatory changes which could adversely affect the ability of the consolidated Company to conduct business combinations or new operations; changes in tax laws; significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities; risks associated with the proposed merger of First IC with the Company (the "Proposed Merger"), including (a) the risk that the cost savings and any revenue synergies from the Proposed Merger is less than or different from expectations, (b) disruption from the Proposed Merger with customer, supplier, or employee relationships, (c) the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between the Company and First IC, (d) the possibility that the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the Proposed Merger may be greater than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected or unknown factors, events, or liabilities, (e) the failure of the conditions to the Proposed Merger to be satisfied, (f) the risks related to the integration of the combined businesses, including the risk that the integration will be materially delayed or will be more costly or difficult than expected, (g) the diversion of management time on merger-related issues, (h) the ability of the Company to effectively manage the larger and more complex operations of the combined company following the Proposed Merger, (i) the risks associated with the Company's pursuit of future acquisitions, (j) the risk of expansion into new geographic or product markets, (k) reputational risk and the reaction of the parties' customers to the Proposed Merger, (l) the Company's ability to successfully execute its various business strategies, including its ability to execute on potential acquisition opportunities, (m) the risk of potential litigation or regulatory action related to the Proposed Merger, and (n) general competitive, economic, political, and market conditions; the ability to keep pace with technological changes, including changes regarding maintaining cybersecurity and the impact of generative artificial intelligence; increased competition in the financial services industry, particularly from regional and national institutions; the impact of a failure in, or breach of, the Company's operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties with whom the Company does business, including as a result of cyber-attacks or an increase in the incidence or severity of fraud, illegal payments, security breaches or other illegal acts impacting the Company or the Company's customers; the effects of war or other conflicts; and adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of the Company's participation in and execution of government programs. Therefore, the Company can give no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business and future financial performance are subject is contained in the sections titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and in other documents that we file with the SEC from time to time, which are available on the SEC's website, http://www.sec.gov. In addition, our actual financial results in the future may differ from those currently expected due to additional risks and uncertainties of which we are not currently aware or which we do not currently view as, but in the future may become, material to our business or operating results. Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release or to make predictions based solely on historical financial performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements, express or implied, included in this press release are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
