DIVIDEND DECLARED
The Board of Directors of the Company voted to declare a cash dividend of $0.30 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2024 payable on September 13, 2024. This dividend equates to a 4.46% annualized yield based on the $26.88 closing share price of the Company's common stock on June 28, 2024, the last trading day of the second quarter 2024.

FINANCIAL CONDITION (June 30, 2024 compared to March 31, 2024)
Total assets grew $75.2 million at the end of the second quarter 2024 compared to the first quarter 2024 primarily due to loan growth and higher cash balances, partially offset by lower securities available for sale at the end of the second quarter.

Total cash and cash equivalents were $101.8 million, compared to $76.2 million at end of the first quarter 2024. Interest-earning deposits held with other banks totaled $62.2 million compared to $45.4 million at end of the first quarter and yielded 5.65% and 5.88%, respectively.

Total loans grew $52.5 million or 7% on an annualized basis. Commercial loans grew by $68.6 million or 14% annualized primarily driven by a $59.9 million, or 15% increase in commercial real estate and a $8.7 million, or 8%, increase in commercial and industrial loans. Residential loans decreased by $18.5 million, or 8% annualized, compared to the first quarter 2024 as we continue to focus on our held-for-sale mortgage business and allocate portfolio balances to higher yielding commercial loans. Consumer loans increased $3.9 million, or 16% annualized, driven by new home equity line originations in the second quarter 2024.

Securities available for sale decreased to $512.9 million compared to $527.6 million in the first quarter 2024 driven by pay downs of $22.0 million, called securities of $3.5 million, matured securities of $3.0 million and net amortization of $408 thousand, partially offset by security purchases of $18.1 million. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") stock increased to $14.8 million in the second quarter 2024 compared to $10.0 million in the first quarter 2024 driven by higher FHLB borrowings. Fair value adjustments decreased the security portfolio by $68.5 million at quarter-end of this quarter compared to $64.9 million at the end of the first quarter. The weighted average yield of the total securities portfolio for the second quarter 2024 was 4.00% compared to 4.02% at the end of the previous quarter primarily due to a run-off of lower coupon fixed-rate securities. As of the end of the first and second quarters 2024, respectively, our securities portfolio maintained an average life of nine years with an effective duration of five years and all securities remain classified as available for sale to provide flexibility in asset funding and other opportunities as they arise.

The allowance for credit losses increased $500 thousand to $28.9 million at the end of the second quarter 2024 compared to $28.4 million at the end of the first quarter 2024. Our allowance for credit losses continues to be driven by a combination of portfolio loan growth, nominal credit movement and general macroeconomic trends. Non-accruing loans decreased during the second quarter 2024 to $6.3 million from $6.9 million in the first quarter 2024. Charge-offs and specific reserves on non-accruing loans continue to be nominal, supported by relatively strong collateral values.

Total deposits remained at $3.1 billion at the end of the second quarter 2024. We continued to see a shift from non-maturity deposits to certificate of deposit accounts ("CDs"), as CDs increased $23.9 million in the second quarter versus the first quarter 2024. The increase was primarily driven by $6.8 million in personal CDs, $6.4 million in brokered deposits, $6.3 million in non-personal CDs, and $4.4 million in Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service, also known as CDARS, deposits. Non-maturity deposits decreased 2% on an annualized basis or $10.6 million. Senior borrowings increased $59.9 million to $329.3 million from the first quarter 2024 driven by funding loan growth and liquidity.

The Company's book value per share was $28.81 as of June 30, 2024 compared to $28.64 as of March 31, 2024. Unrealized losses on securities, net of taxes, reduced book value per share by $3.44 and $3.26 at the end of those respective periods. Tangible book value per share (Non-GAAP) was $20.68 at the end of the second quarter 2024, compared to $20.48 at the end of the first quarter 2024.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023)
Net interest margin was 3.09% compared to 3.22% in the second quarter 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by higher cost of funds, partially offset by lower borrowing costs. The yield on loans grew 42 basis points to 5.41% in the second quarter 2024, up from 4.99% in the same quarter 2023. Costs of interest-bearing deposits increased to 2.35% from 1.45% in the second quarter 2023 driven by the competitive pricing within the interest rate environment and change in deposit mix as we continue to experience a shift from non-maturity deposits to CDs. Borrowings decreased $69.5 million from the second quarter 2023 compounded with a 16 basis point decrease in yields on interest bearing liabilities to 4.57% in the second quarter 2024.

Total interest and dividend income increased by 9.2% to $46.8 million in the second quarter 2023 primarily driven by the repricing of adjustable-rate loans and originations of higher fixed-rate loans within the commercial portfolio. The yield on commercial real estate loans grew to 5.61% at the end of the second quarter 2024 from 5.21% in the second quarter 2023. Commercial and industrial yield grew to 6.76% at the end of the second quarter 2024 compared to 6.42% at the end of the second quarter 2023. Yields on earning assets continue to grow to 5.18% compared to 4.77% in the second quarter 2023.

The provision for credit losses was $585 thousand compared to $750 thousand in the second quarter 2023 as net charge-offs to total loans continue to remain nominal. Credit quality continues to be strong as non-accruing loans to total loans was 0.20% at the end of the second quarter 2024 compared to 0.22% in the second quarter 2023. Total delinquent and non-accruing loans to total loans was 0.30% at the end of the second quarter 2024 to compared to 0.33% in the second quarter 2023.

Non-interest income was $9.6 million in the second quarter 2024 compared to $9.0 million in the same quarter 2023. Wealth management income grew 10% to $4.2 million compared to $3.8 million in the in the second quarter 2023. Assets under management grew 12% in the second quarter 2024 to $2.6 billion from $2.3 billion in the second quarter 2023 driven by higher security valuations and a 2% growth in the managed accounts. Mortgage banking income increased $180 thousand compared to the second quarter 2023 driven by increased margins on our held-for-sale mortgage business.

Non-interest expense was $24.0 million in the second quarter 2024 compared to $23.4 million in the second quarter 2023 driven by salary and benefits, and other expenses, partially offset by the gain on sale of our Avery Lane office and lower professional services fees. Salary and benefit expenses increased 5%, or $637 thousand, from the comparative quarter 2023 driven in part by stock compensation due to increases in stock price and lower loan origination fee deferrals in the second quarter 2024. Other expenses increased to $4.4 million from $4.2 million in the second quarter 2023 primarily due to increases in charitable contributions to the community, software expenses, and debit and ATM card expenses.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide the reader with additional supplemental perspectives on operating results, performance trends, and financial condition. Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures is provided below. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders. An item which management excludes when computing non-GAAP core earnings can be of substantial importance to the Company's results for any particular quarter or year. Each non-GAAP measure used by the Company in this report as supplemental financial data should be considered in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information.

The Company utilizes the non-GAAP measure of core earnings in evaluating operating trends, including components for core revenue and expense. These measures exclude amounts which the Company views as unrelated to its normalized operations, including gains/losses on securities, premises, equipment and other real estate owned, acquisition costs, restructuring costs, legal settlements, and systems conversion costs. Non-GAAP adjustments are presented net of an adjustment for income tax expense.

The Company also calculates core earnings per share based on its measure of core earnings. The Company views these amounts as important to understanding its operating trends, particularly due to the impact of accounting standards related to acquisition activity. Analysts also rely on these measures in estimating and evaluating the Company's performance. Management also believes that the computation of non-GAAP core earnings and core earnings per share may facilitate the comparison of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry. The Company also adjusts certain equity related measures to exclude intangible assets due to the importance of these measures to the investment community.
