Bank of the James reports Q1 EPS 19c vs. 48c last year

Robert Chapman III, CEO of the Bank, commented: "Our focus during the past several years on managing interest expense in a significantly higher rate environment was reflected in the first quarter's lower year-over-year interest expense. Appropriate adjustments to loan rates and optimizing the performance of the Bank's investments continued to generate steady interest income growth. As a result, net interest margin and interest spread continued to trend positively. Strong, quality earnings over the years have supported our ability to build and maintain a strong cash position and exceptional liquidity. The company's core operations for first quarter of 2025 produced solid earnings. However, our earnings were negatively impacted by a non-recurring expense paid to a consultant that we used to successfully negotiate a contract with our core service provider. We anticipate that this contract will result in significant long-term cost savings."
