Company Reports $5.2 Million Provision for Credit Losses in Q2
Financial results for the second quarter of 2026 included $10.5 million of expenses related to severance, accelerated equity award vesting and employee benefits associated with the previously announced departures of three senior executives; $380,000 of accelerated premium amortization on acquired loans due to seasoning, which negatively impacted the average loan yield by eight basis points; and a $5.2 million provision for credit losses, primarily reflecting loan growth, increased required reserves on certain individually evaluated loans, and the impact of $2.8 million of net charge offs during the quarter. William Black, Executive Vice Chairman, commented, "This quarter we took several deliberate actions to strengthen future earnings. We repositioned our bond portfolio into higher-yielding, shorter-duration securities and began restructuring our bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) portfolio, which together we expect to recoup the costs of these actions within approximately three years. We also sold most of our preferred equity holdings to reduce earnings volatility and market risk. Finally, we took targeted steps to realign our relationship banking teams around our most productive talent and markets. While these actions collectively reduced current-quarter earnings by approximately $0.50 per share, they position us for stronger, more consistent performance going forward. We are now focused on growing core customer relationships by investing in our business while looking at opportunities to improve legacy cost structures."

Company Reports Q4 Tangible Book Value of $27.37
Reports Q4 tangible book value per share $27.37. Reports Q4 CET1 capital ratio 13.84%. George Guarini, president and CEO, commented, "Our financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 reflect a continuing trend of growth in core lending activity and improvement in net interest income, supported by disciplined balance sheet management. Net interest income increased both quarter over quarter and year over year, while full-year noninterest expense declined, reflecting our ongoing focus on operating efficiency. We also took steps in 2025 to strengthen our balance sheet by repaying our subordinated debt and increasing our loan loss reserves. These actions were taken to enhance our financial flexibility and prudently position the Company amid economic and interest rate uncertainty. Overall, our financial condition remains strong, and our earnings remain steady."
