What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well

- Return metrics strengthened: ROA 1.06% (vs 0.87% y/y) and ROE 17.24% (vs 14.45% y/y), underpinned by earnings growth and valuation recovery in the securities portfolio .
What Went Wrong
- Continued pressure on interest expense (+11.6% y/y for the quarter) due to competitive deposit pricing and higher-cost wholesale borrowings in a still-elevated rate environment .
- Noninterest income declined modestly (-1.7% y/y) with compressed mortgage sale margins and lower bank-owned life insurance earnings following a prior-year death benefit; service fees down 6.2% y/y .

Management Commentary
- “The Corporation’s earnings were positively impacted through the second quarter of 2025 by an increase in net interest income… only partially offset by an increase in provision expense, slightly lower non interest income, and higher operating expenses.”
- “Other operating expenses… increased due to expanded investments and initiatives in technology, increased occupancy and equipment costs, some residual core conversion expenses, and increases in fraud expenses related to losses on customer deposit accounts.”
- “Interest income on loans increased… while interest income on securities increased… Interest expense on deposits and borrowings increased… due to the continued high interest rate environment putting pressure on deposit rates and the higher cost of wholesale borrowings.”
- “The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.13% as of June 30, 2025… The provision expense recorded in 2025 was primarily related to loan growth.”

Estimates Context
- S&P Global estimate data coverage appears limited. Q2 2025 “Revenue Consensus Mean” shows an actual of $21.203M*, suggesting revenue defined as NII + noninterest income net of provision, while company-reported NII + noninterest totaled $21.329M; the $126K difference aligns with the quarter’s provision . EPS and revenue consensus estimates, target price, and estimate counts were not available for Q2 2025*.
- Implication: With scarce Street coverage, internal trajectory (NIM, NII growth, efficiency) rather than consensus beats/misses will likely drive investor reaction.
- Values retrieved from S&P Global.*
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Profitability inflected positively: EPS $1.02 and ROE 17.24% on expanding NIM and improved efficiency; this is a constructive setup for continued NII-led earnings momentum .
- Watch funding costs: Deposit rate pressure and wholesale borrowing costs remain elevated; sustaining NIM gains will depend on competitive pricing and balance sheet mix .
- Credit costs normalizing: Provision tied to loan growth with allowance at 1.13% of loans; monitor classified trends and local macro for potential changes .
- Operating discipline: Efficiency ratio improved to 65.5% despite higher tech, occupancy, and fraud-related expenses—continued cost control can support further ROA/ROE gains .
- Balance sheet growth healthy: Loans +5.7% y/y and deposits +8.1% y/y; asset and equity growth aided by improved securities valuations—a supportive backdrop for core earnings .
- Limited Street coverage: With sparse consensus, catalysts hinge on company-reported NIM trajectory, fee income stabilization, and expense management rather than headline beats/misses*.
- Dividend stability: Quarterly dividend held at $0.18; growing earnings increase sustainability and flexibility over time .
