MID PENN BANCORP INC (MPB)·Q3 2025 Earnings Summary
Executive Summary
- Q3 2025 delivered a clean beat on earnings and revenue: Primary EPS was $0.77 vs S&P consensus $0.71 (+$0.06) and revenue was $62.25M vs $58.40M consensus (+$3.85M). The company also reported GAAP diluted EPS of $0.79 and highlighted the consensus beat in its release.*
- Net interest margin expanded 16 bps sequentially to 3.60% and 47 bps YoY, driven by repricing, disciplined loan pricing, accretion from acquired loans, and modest declines in deposit funding costs.
- Operating leverage improved: core efficiency ratio fell to 58.80% from 62.56% in Q2 and 64.89% last year, as noninterest expense dropped materially with the absence of Q2 merger costs and noninterest income increased.
- Strategic actions and catalysts: dividend increased 10% to $0.22; signed agreements to acquire 1st Colonial Bancorp (
$101M deal) and Cumberland Advisors ($3.3B AUM), expanding footprint and fee income potential. - Balance sheet mix shift: deposits decreased $106.9M as MPB exited ~$175M brokered CDs (with $279K swap cancellation gains), while interest-bearing transaction balances rose $85.3M; loans declined modestly due to elevated CRE payoffs.

What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- EPS/revenue beat with margin expansion: “Our net interest margin expanded by 16 basis points within the quarter and is now up to 3.6%... Good revenue growth + good NIM expansion + flat operating expenses + solid asset quality = a great quarter.”
- Asset quality remained strong: net charge-offs were ~$91K (<0.002% of average loans), and nonperforming assets decreased slightly vs Q2; ACL/loans at 0.77%.
- Efficiency improved: core efficiency ratio decreased 377 bps QoQ to 58.80%, reflecting higher NII, higher noninterest income, and lower noninterest expense as Q2 merger charges rolled off.
What Went Wrong
- Organic loan contraction: loans declined $11.8M in Q3 (1.0% annualized) and organic loan portfolio was down $53.3M YTD excluding acquisitions, largely due to CRE payoffs outpacing originations.
- Deposit outflows linked to strategy: total deposits fell $106.9M in Q3 as MPB exited ~$175M brokered CDs; noninterest-bearing balances fell $20.7M even as interest-bearing transactions rose $85.3M.
- Slight uptick in delinquency: loans past due 30+ days rose to 0.68% from 0.58% in Q2; nonperforming assets remain elevated vs last year (0.44% of assets vs 0.32% in Q3 2024).

Key Takeaways for Investors
- Earnings quality: Margin-driven beat with strong asset quality and operating discipline; the absence of Q2 merger costs amplified core efficiency gains.
- Funding mix optimization: Proactive exit of brokered CDs and swap unwinds reduced funding costs while preserving transactional deposit growth.
- Organic growth challenge: CRE payoffs and subdued demand are tempering loan growth; watch for pipeline recovery and post-M&A synergies to offset runoff.
- Strategic M&A adds optionality: 1st Colonial should bolster market presence; Cumberland Advisors adds ~$3.3B AUM and fee income potential near-term. Deal timing/approvals are key milestones.
- Capital and dividend signal: 10% dividend hike alongside well-capitalized ratios supports shareholder return continuity; buyback capacity remains (~$2.9M).
- Near-term trading catalyst: Estimate beats and NIM expansion, plus dividend raise and M&A announcements, are positive sentiment drivers; monitor any updates on closing timelines/terms.
- Medium-term thesis: Sustain NIM resilience and efficiency while stabilizing organic loans; realize fee growth from RIA and cross-sell; maintain credit discipline amid CRE normalization.
