2025 Annual Earnings Highlights

Key Highlights

Net Interest Income Growth Net interest income rose to $172.5M in 2025 from $107.0M in 2024, driven by HMNF acquisition and organic loan growth at higher yields.
Net Interest Margin Expansion Net interest margin increased to 3.53% in 2025 from 2.56% in 2024, reflecting favorable interest rate environment and effective asset/liability management strategies.
Strong Asset Base Total assets reached $5.2B as of December 31, 2025, supported by $4.0B in total loans and $4.2B in total deposits across diversified segments.

Risk Factors

Deposit Base Contraction Total deposits decreased to $4.2B in 2025 from $4.4B in 2024, increasing reliance on higher-cost funding sources and impacting net interest income.
Credit Quality Exposure Allowance for credit losses on loans was $61.9M, or 1.53% of total loans, reflecting potential risks from commercial real estate and economic downturns.
Litigation and Regulatory Risks Company faces ongoing litigation regarding past ESOP fiduciary services, potentially impacting financial results and requiring management attention and increased compliance-related expenses.

Outlook

Interest Rate Sensitivity Balance sheet is slightly liability sensitive in 2026; FOMC rate decisions will continue to impact net interest income and overall financial performance.
Strategic Growth Focus Company prioritizes organic growth and strategic acquisitions to expand market share, despite challenges in finding suitable candidates and managing integration-related operational risks.
Asset Quality Management Management maintains robust credit risk governance and adequate allowance levels to absorb potential losses, continuously monitoring economic conditions and portfolio performance trends.
