    المصدر: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 21 أكتوبر 2024 15:05:19   America/Chicago

    CLEARFIELD, Pa., Oct. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CNB Financial Corporation (“Corporation”) (NASDAQ: CCNE), the parent company of CNB Bank, today announced its earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

    Executive Summary

    • Net income available to common shareholders ("earnings") was $12.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to earnings of $11.9 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The quarterly increase was a result of increases in both net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense, as discussed in more detail below. The increase in third quarter 2024 earnings and diluted earnings per share when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 earnings of $12.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, was primarily due to the increase in non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense.

    • Earnings were $36.3 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to earnings of $40.8 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in earnings and diluted earnings per share comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to the rise in deposit costs year over year.

    • At September 30, 2024, loans totaled $4.5 billion, excluding the balances of syndicated loans. This adjusted total of $4.5 billion in loans represented an increase of $96.7 million, or 2.18% (8.69% annualized), compared to the same adjusted total loans measured as of June 30, 2024, and an increase of $153.4 million, or 3.51%, compared to the same adjusted total loans measured as of September 30, 2023. The increase in loans for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by qualitative commercial and industrial growth in the Erie and Columbus markets and continued growth in new commercial customer relationships in the Corporation's recent expansion market of Roanoke, coupled with growth in CNB's Private Banking division with notable activity in the Roanoke market. The year over year growth in loans as of September 30, 2024 compared to loans as of September 30, 2023 resulted primarily from growth in the Corporation's continued expansion into the newer markets of Cleveland and Roanoke, combined with growth in the Columbus and Erie markets and CNB Bank’s Private Banking division.

      • At September 30, 2024, the Corporation's balance sheet reflected an increase in syndicated lending balances of $15.5 million compared to June 30, 2024. The increase in syndicated lending balances was the result of the Corporation managing the level of its syndicated portfolio by ensuring its historical discipline of seeking high credit quality loans with favorable yields. Year over year, the Corporation's balance sheet reported a decrease in syndicated lending balances of $53.6 million compared to September 30, 2023, resulting from scheduled paydowns or early payoffs of certain syndicated loans. The syndicated loan portfolio totaled $69.5 million, or 1.51% of total loans, at September 30, 2024, compared to $53.9 million, or 1.20% of total loans, at June 30, 2024 and $123.1 million, or 2.74% of total loans, at September 30, 2023. As noted above, the Corporation is closely managing the level of its syndicated loan portfolio while it focuses more resources on organic loan growth from its in-market customer relationships.

    • At September 30, 2024, total deposits were $5.2 billion, reflecting an increase of $106.1 million, or 2.08% (8.26% annualized), from the previous quarter ended June 30, 2024, and an increase of $214.2 million, or 4.28%, compared to total deposits measured as of September 30, 2023. The increase in deposit balances compared to June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in noninterest-bearing business deposits and retail saving deposits. Additional deposit and liquidity profile details were as follows:

      • During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Corporation repositioned $135.0 million of brokered deposits from savings to certificates of deposits. Additionally, $50.0 million of maturing brokered certificates of deposit were replaced with a similar offering. The repositioning and replacement totaling $185.0 million during the quarter and reduced the weighted average annual percentage yield ("APY") from 5.70% to a locked-in APY of 4.37%, for maturity periods ranging from 12-14 months. This adjustment is expected to result in an estimated annual interest expense savings of $2.5 million for the Corporation. The mix of brokered deposits of 3.55% of total deposits at September 30, 2024, remained stable with the mix of 3.58% of total deposits at June 30, 2024.

      • At September 30, 2024, the total estimated uninsured deposits for CNB Bank were approximately $1.5 billion, or approximately 28.50% of total CNB Bank deposits. However, when excluding $103.1 million of affiliate company deposits and $462.7 million of pledged-investment collateralized deposits, the adjusted amount and percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits was approximately $950.6 million, or approximately 17.87% of total CNB Bank deposits as of September 30, 2024.

        • The level of adjusted uninsured deposits at September 30, 2024 was relatively unchanged with the prior quarter end's level. At June 30, 2024, the total estimated uninsured deposits for CNB Bank were approximately $1.5 billion, or approximately 29.00% of total CNB Bank deposits; however, when excluding $101.4 million of affiliate company deposits and $460.7 million of pledged-investment collateralized deposits, the adjusted amount and percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits was approximately $949.8 million, or approximately 18.22% of total CNB Bank deposits as of June 30, 2024.

      • At September 30, 2024, the average deposit balance per account for CNB Bank was approximately $33 thousand, which generally remained consistent with the average deposit balance per account from recent quarters. CNB Bank had increases in the volume of business deposits, as well as retail customer household deposits, including those added after the 2023 launches of (i) CNB Bank’s “At Ease” account, a service for U.S. service member and veteran families, and (ii) CNB’s women-focused banking division, Impressia Bank.

      • At September 30, 2024, the Corporation had $282.0 million of cash equivalents held in CNB Bank’s interest-bearing deposit account at the Federal Reserve. These excess funds, when combined with collective contingent liquidity resources of $4.5 billion including (i) available borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Bank of Pittsburgh ("FHLB") and the Federal Reserve, and (ii) available unused commitments from brokered deposit sources and other third-party funding channels, including previously established lines of credit from correspondent banks, resulted in the total on-hand and contingent liquidity sources for the Corporation as of September 30, 2024 to be approximately 5.0 times the estimated amount of adjusted uninsured deposit balances discussed above.

    • At September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Corporation had no outstanding short-term borrowings from the FHLB or the Federal Reserve's Discount Window.

    • At September 30, 2024, the Corporation's pre-tax net unrealized losses on available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities totaled approximately $62.5 million, or 10.30% of total shareholders' equity, compared to $84.1 million, or 14.33% of total shareholders' equity, at June 30, 2024. The change in unrealized losses was primarily due to changes in the yield curve in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2024, coupled with the Corporation’s scheduled bond maturities, which were all realized at par. Importantly, all regulatory capital ratios for the Corporation would still exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” levels as of both September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024 if the net unrealized losses at the respective dates were fully recognized. Additionally, the Corporation maintained $102.0 million of liquid funds at its holding company, which more than covers the $62.5 million in unrealized losses on investments held primarily in its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, as an immediately available source of contingent capital to be down-streamed to CNB Bank, if necessary.

    • Total nonperforming assets were approximately $42.0 million, or 0.70% of total assets, as of September 30, 2024, compared to $36.5 million, or 0.62% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024, and $29.3 million, or 0.51% of total assets, as of September 30, 2023. The increase in nonperforming assets for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to one commercial relationship (consisting of various loan types) totaling $7.9 million with a specific reserve balance of $2.2 million. Management does not believe there is risk of significant additional loss exposures beyond the specific reserves related to this loan relationship. The increase in non-performing assets at September 30, 2024 compared to September 30, 2023 was due to the loan relationship discussed above, as well as certain commercial and industrial relationships as previously disclosed in the fourth quarter of 2023 and second quarter of 2024, and a commercial real estate relationship as previously disclosed in the third quarter of 2023. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, net loan charge-offs were $1.2 million, or 0.11% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $2.8 million, or 0.25% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, and $732 thousand, or 0.06% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

    • Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR"), a non-GAAP measure, was $19.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $18.6 million and $18.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.1 The third quarter 2024 PPNR, when compared to the second quarter of 2024, reflected improvements in net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by higher non-interest expense. The increase in PPNR for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily attributable to the increase in non-interest income. PPNR was $55.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $59.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.1 The decrease in PPNR for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to the significant year-over-year increase in deposit costs, coupled with increases in certain personnel costs (primarily from new offices and personnel added in expansion markets), as well as additional technology expenses for recently completed full implementation of business development and customer relationship management applications.

    1 This release contains references to certain financial measures that are not defined under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section.

    Michael Peduzzi, President and CEO of both the Corporation and CNB Bank, commented on the Corporation’s positive quarterly results, stating, "CNB’s performance for the third quarter of 2024 was much in alignment with themes in a time of year when so many sports are active. We continue to have a strong defense with our traditionally sound loan and investment underwriting, disciplined loan and deposit pricing, and solid risk management practices. This was complemented by a solid offensive push as we translated pipeline activity and qualified business leads into sound loan growth, and an expansion of the number of relationships and accounts in our deposit base, all leading to notable increases in revenues. Further, thanks to effective “special team” efforts by our Finance team, we closely monitored market conditions and took advantage of an opportunity to realize substantial interest expense savings by repositioning a large portion of wholesale funding sources.

    The Corporation’s team across our entire footprint continues to be focused on controlling staffing levels and overhead cost management, while expanding the use of the Corporation’s previous investments in key sales and customer experience technologies. Our playbook for implementing our overall strategy remains the same – to maintain a team of motivated and engaged employees delivering products and services to achieve mutually beneficial and sustainable success for our clients and investors."

    Other Balance Sheet Highlights

    • Book value per common share was $26.13 at September 30, 2024, reflecting an increase from $25.19 at June 30, 2024 and $23.52 at September 30, 2023. Tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP measure, was $24.03 as of September 30, 2024, reflecting an increase of $0.94, or 16.20% (annualized) from $23.09 as of June 30, 2024 and a year-over-year increase of $2.63, or 12.29%, from $21.40 as of September 30, 2023.1 The increases in book value per common share and tangible book value per common share compared to June 30, 2024 were primarily due to a $9.1 million increase in retained earnings and a $10.1 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio for the past three months. The increases in book value per common share and tangible book value per common share compared to September 30, 2023 were primarily due to (i) a $34.4 million increase in retained earnings over the twelve months ended September 30, 2024, (ii) the Corporation's repurchase of 23,988 common shares at a weighted average price of $18.38 in the second quarter of 2024, and (iii) a $21.2 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio for the past twelve months.

    Loan Portfolio Profile

    • As part of our lending policy and risk management activities, the Corporation tracks lending exposure by industry classification and type to determine potential risks associated with industry concentrations, and if any concentration risk issues could lead to additional credit loss exposure. In the current post-pandemic and relatively inflationary economic environment, the Corporation has continued to evaluate its exposure to the office, hospitality, and multifamily industries within its commercial real estate portfolio. Even given the Corporation’s historically sound underwriting protocols and high credit quality ratings for borrowers in the commercial real estate industry segments, the Corporation monitors numerous relevant sensitivity elements, including occupancy, loan-to-value, absorption and cap rates, debt service coverage and covenant compliance, and developer/lessor financial strength both in the project and globally. At September 30, 2024, the Corporation had the following key metrics related to its office, hospitality and multifamily portfolios:
    • Commercial office loans:
      • There were 114 outstanding loans, totaling $117.0 million, or 2.55%, of the Corporation loans outstanding;
      • There were no nonaccrual commercial office loans at September 30, 2024;
      • There was one past due commercial office loan that totaled $214 thousand, or 0.18% of total commercial office loans outstanding at September 30, 2024; and
      • The average outstanding balance per commercial office loan was $1.0 million.
    • Commercial hospitality loans:
      • There were 173 outstanding loans, totaling $320.6 million, or 6.98%, of total Corporation loans outstanding;
      • There were no nonaccrual commercial hospitality loans at September 30, 2024;
      • There were no past due commercial hospitality loans at September 30, 2024; and
      • The average outstanding balance per commercial hospitality loan was $1.9 million.
    • Commercial multifamily loans:
      • There were 225 outstanding loans, totaling $349.1 million, or 7.60%, of total Corporation loans outstanding;
      • There was one nonaccrual commercial multifamily loan that totaled $268 thousand, or 0.08% of total multifamily loans outstanding. The one customer relationship did not have a related specific loss reserve at September 30, 2024
      • There were two past due commercial office loans that totaled $760 thousand, or 0.22% of total commercial multifamily loans outstanding at September 30, 2024; and
      • The average outstanding balance per commercial multifamily loan was $1.6 million.

    The Corporation had no commercial office, hospitality or multifamily loan relationships considered by the banking regulators to be a high volatility commercial real estate credit ("HVCRE").

    Performance Ratios

    • Annualized return on average equity was 9.28% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 8.94% and 9.80% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Annualized return on average equity was 9.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 10.74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
    • Annualized return on average tangible common equity, a non-GAAP measure, was 10.33% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 9.93% and 11.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.1 Annualized return on average tangible common equity, a non-GAAP measure, was 10.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 12.23% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.1
    • The Corporation's efficiency ratio was 66.34% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 65.94% and 67.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The efficiency ratio on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 65.58% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 65.20% and 66.26% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.1 The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily the result of an increase in incentive compensation related accruals which are based on various components of the Corporation's financial performance for the year.
    • The Corporation's efficiency ratio was 67.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 64.26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The efficiency ratio on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP ratio, was 66.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 63.60% the nine months ended September 30, 2023.1

    Revenue

    • Total revenue (net interest income plus non-interest income) was $58.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $54.6 million and $55.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

      • Net interest income was $47.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $45.7 million and $47.2 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. When comparing the third quarter of 2024 to the second quarter of 2024, the difference in net interest income of $1.8 million, or 3.87% (15.39% annualized), reflected the increase in total loans outstanding quarter over quarter, partially offset by targeted interest-bearing deposit rate increases to ensure both deposit relationship retention and new deposit growth in the Corporation's markets.

      • Net interest margin was 3.43%, 3.36% and 3.55% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.42%, 3.34% and 3.53% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.1 

        • The yield on earning assets of 5.98% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased 9 basis points from June 30, 2024 and increased 35 basis points from September 30, 2023. The increases in yield compared to June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 were attributable to the net benefit of higher interest rates on both variable-rate loans and new loan production.

        • The cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 3.21% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased 4 basis points from June 30, 2024 and 55 basis points from September 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the Corporation’s targeted interest-bearing deposit rate increases for deposit retention and growth initiatives given the competitive environment resulting from the numerous Federal Reserve rate hikes since the first quarter of 2022.
    • Total revenue was $167.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $166.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

      • Net interest income was $138.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $142.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. When comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the decrease in net interest income of $3.7 million, or 2.61% (3.49% annualized), was due to loan growth and the benefits of the impact of higher interest rates resulting in greater income on variable-rate loans, coupled with a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve, being more than offset by an increase in the Corporation's interest expense as a result of targeted interest-bearing deposit rate increases to ensure both deposit growth and retention.

      • Net interest margin was 3.40% and 3.66% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.38% and 3.64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.1 

        • The yield on earning assets of 5.89% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased 41 basis points from September 30, 2023. The increase in yield compared to September 30, 2023 was attributable to the net benefit of higher interest rates on both variable-rate loans and new loan production.

        • The cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 3.14% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased 80 basis points from September 30, 2023 primarily as a result of the Corporation’s targeted interest-bearing deposit rate increases for deposit retention and growth initiatives given the competitive environment resulting from the numerous Federal Reserve rate hikes since the first quarter of 2022. The Federal Reserve rate decrease announced in mid-September 2024, being only effective for a short period of time in the quarter, had no significant impact on the Corporation’s third quarter results.
    • Total non-interest income was $11.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $8.9 million and $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, notable changes compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 included increases in net realized and unrealized gains on equity securities and higher pass-through income from small business investment companies ("SBICs"). The increase in third quarter 2024 noninterest income compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to higher pass-through income from SBICs and net realized and unrealized gains on equity securities.
    • Total non-interest income was $28.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $24.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher pass-through income from SBICs coupled with an increase in net realized and unrealized gains on equity securities.

    Non-Interest Expense

    • For the three months ended September 30, 2024 total non-interest expense was $38.8 million, compared to $36.0 million and $36.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase of $2.8 million, or 7.77%, from the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily a result of an increase in salaries and benefits, card processing and interchange expenses, and other non-interest expenses. The increase in salaries and benefits resulted primarily from an increase in incentive compensation accruals, which are based on various components of the Corporation's financial performance for the year, coupled with the timing of profit-sharing accruals. The increase in card processing and interchange expenses related primarily to corporate cardholder rewards program accrual, while the increase in other non-interest expenses was primarily driven by the timing of expenditures and business generation related expenses. The increase in non-interest expense compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to higher salaries and benefits driven by costs for personnel added for new offices in expansion markets, an increase in personnel costs related to annual merit increases, increases in health insurance costs, and contractual renewal increases in the Corporation's investments in technology applications.
    • For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 total non-interest expense was $112.2 million, compared to $106.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase of $5.3 million, or 4.96%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily a result of an increase in salaries and benefits and technology expenses, partially offset by a decrease in card processing and interchange expenses. The increase in salaries and benefits was driven by an increase in personnel costs related to annual merit increases and growth in the Corporation's staff and new offices in its expansion markets, while the increase in technology was primarily due to year-over-year investments in technology applications aimed at enhancing both customer online banking capabilities, customer call center communications, and in-branch technology delivery channels. The decrease in card processing and interchange expenses related to the changes made by the Corporation to its cardholder rewards program.

    Income Taxes

    • Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $3.3 million, representing a 19.31% effective tax rate, compared to $3.0 million, representing an 19.03% effective tax rate, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $3.4 million, representing a 19.86% effective tax rate, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $9.2 million, representing an 18.92% effective tax rate compared to $10.6 million, representing a 19.47% effective tax rate, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

    Asset Quality

    • Total nonperforming assets were approximately $42.0 million, or 0.70% of total assets, as of September 30, 2024, compared to $36.5 million, or 0.62% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024, and $29.3 million, or 0.51% of total assets, as of September 30, 2023, as discussed above.
    • The allowance for credit losses measured as a percentage of total loans was 1.02% as of September 30, 2024 compared to 1.02% as of both June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. In addition, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was 117.03% as of September 30, 2024, compared to 130.88% and 169.34% as of June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The change in the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was primarily attributable to the levels of nonperforming assets, as discussed above.
    • The provision for credit losses was $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $2.6 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The $1.3 million increase in the provision expense for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023 was primarily a result of higher loan portfolio growth and increased net loan charge-offs in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023.
    • For the three months ended September 30, 2024, net loan charge-offs were $1.2 million, or 0.11% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $2.8 million, or 0.25% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, and $732 thousand, or 0.06% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
    • For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net loan charge-offs were $5.4 million, or 0.16% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $2.2 million, or 0.07% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, with most of the larger year-to-date charge-offs being as previously disclosed occurring in the first and second quarter of 2024.

    Capital

    • As of September 30, 2024, the Corporation’s total shareholders’ equity was $606.4 million, representing an increase of $19.7 million, or 3.35% (13.33% annualized), from June 30, 2024 and an increase of $57.2 million, or 10.41%, from September 30, 2023 primarily due to an increase in the Corporation's retained earnings (net income, partially offset by the common and preferred stock dividends paid) and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio for the past twelve months. The additions to shareholders equity from retained earnings were partially offset by the Corporation's repurchase of its common stock, as discussed above.
    • Regulatory capital ratios for the Corporation continue to exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” levels as of September 30, 2024, consistent with prior periods.
    • As of September 30, 2024, the Corporation’s ratio of common shareholders' equity to total assets was 9.12% compared to 8.99% at June 30, 2024 and 8.57% at September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2024, the Corporation’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, a non-GAAP measure, was 8.45% compared to 8.30% at June 30, 2024 and 7.86% at September 30, 2023. The increases compared to June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 were primarily the result of an increase in retained earnings coupled with a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, as discussed above.1

    Consolidated Financial Data Notes:     
    (1) Management uses non-GAAP financial information in its analysis of the Corporation’s performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. The Corporation’s management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP measures to analyze the Corporation’s financial performance without the impact of unusual items or events that may obscure trends in the Corporation’s underlying performance. This non-GAAP data should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the risks that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items included in these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below (dollars in thousands, except per share data).
    (2) Capital ratios as of September 30, 2024 are estimated pending final regulatory filings.
