“The economic and financial services industry uncertainties have continued to present challenges as we begin 2024. However, ACNB Corporation continues to focus on executing our strategic plan. As a result, we are pleased to share our first quarter operating results.

Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $20.6 million, a decrease of $2.5 million, or 10.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in net interest income was driven primarily by an increase in the cost of deposits and an increase in borrowings.

The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 0.65% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of 53 basis points from the three months ended March 31, 2023. The average rate paid on total borrowings was 4.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of 223 basis points from the three months ended March 31, 2023. The average FTE yield on interest-earning assets increased 37 basis points from 4.37% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 4.74% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $5.7 million, an increase of $683 thousand, or 13.7%, from the three months ended March 31, 2023. Insurance commissions for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $2.1 million, an increase of $213 thousand from the three months ended March 31, 2023 driven primarily by organic growth and timing of commissions. Wealth management income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $962 thousand, an increase of $122 thousand from the three months ended March 31, 2023 driven primarily by market appreciation and new business generation. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net gains on sales or calls of investment securities were $69 thousand compared to a loss of $193 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $262 thousand.

Compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023, noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $4.7 million, or 484.2%, driven primarily by the repositioning of the investment securities portfolio which generated a $4.5 million pre-tax loss on the sale of investment securities for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $17.7 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 8.5%, from the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increases in salaries and employee benefits, professional services, other expenses, FDIC and regulatory expenses, and equipment. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $726 thousand driven primarily by higher health insurance costs and base wages. Professional services increased $234 thousand driven primarily by higher maintenance expenses related to a foreclosed asset held for resale and as a result of recruiting expenses for talent acquisition. Other expenses increased $166 thousand driven primarily by higher directors fees and operating losses. The $126 thousand increase in FDIC and regulatory was the result of a higher FDIC assessment due to changes in the composition of ACNB’s balance sheet. Equipment expense increased $122 thousand driven primarily by purchases of office equipment.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $489 thousand, or 2.8%, from the three months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increases in salaries and employee benefits and net occupancy partially offset by decreases in professional services and other expenses. Salaries and employee benefits increased $572 thousand driven primarily by increases to stock-based compensation and health insurance costs. Net occupancy increased $203 thousand driven primarily by higher snow removal costs, building maintenance and utilities. Professional services decreased $104 thousand as the prior quarter had higher loan review and consulting expenses. Other expenses decreased $99 thousand driven primarily by a lower mark-to-market loss on an SBIC fund compared to the prior quarter and timing of FDIC assessment expense.

Loans and Asset Quality

Total loans outstanding were $1.66 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $37.0 million, or 2.3%, from December 31, 2023 and an increase of $133.4 million, or 8.7%, from March 31, 2023. The increase in both periods was driven primarily by growth in the commercial loan portfolio in our core markets.

Asset quality metrics continue to be stable. The provision for credit losses was $223 thousand and the provision for unfunded commitments was a reversal of $151 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to a provision for credit losses of $786 thousand and the provision for unfunded commitments was a reversal of $242 thousand for three months ended December 31, 2023 and a provision for credit losses of $97 thousand and a $276 thousand provision for unfunded commitments for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Non-performing loans were $3.9 million, or 0.24%, of total loans at March 31, 2024 compared to $4.2 million, or 0.26%, of total loans at December 31, 2023 and $3.8 million, or 0.25%, of total loans at March 31, 2023. The decrease in the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the prior quarter was due to a specific reserve on one commercial and industrial relationship which was recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in non-performing loans at March 31, 2024 compared to the prior quarter was the result of several payoffs. Annualized net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were 0.00% of total average loans compared to 0.02% for both the three months ended December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023.

Deposits and Borrowings

Deposits totaled $1.84 billion at March 31, 2024, decreasing $26.6 million, or 1.4%, since December 31, 2023 and $220.6 million, or 10.7%, from March 31, 2023. The decrease of $26.6 million compared to December 31, 2023 was driven primarily by an outflow of municipal deposits. Included in total deposits were $1.34 billion interest-bearing deposits which decreased by $25.8 million, or 1.9%, from December 31, 2023 and by $125.8 million, or 8.6%, from March 31, 2023. Total non-interest bearing deposits were $499.6 million at March 31, 2024. Noninterest bearing deposits decreased by $749 thousand, or 0.1%, from December 31, 2023 and decreased by $94.8 million, or 15.9% from March 31, 2023.

Total borrowings were $272.6 million at March 31, 2024, an increase of $20.4 million, or 8.1%, compared to December 31, 2023. The increase in borrowings was driven primarily by the outflow of municipal deposits and to fund loan growth. The average rate on total borrowings was 4.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to 4.06% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2.15% for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Stockholders’ Equity, Dividends and Share Repurchases

Total stockholders’ equity was $279.9 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $277.5 million at December 31, 2023 and $255.8 million at March 31, 2023. Tangible book value² per share was $26.70, $26.44 and $23.66 at March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
