Net income for Q2 2026 reached $5.03 million, up from $2.29 million a year earlier, as a 44 basis point expansion in net interest margin to 3.00% combined with a $6.57 million gain on the sale of an equity investment. Partially offsetting that gain was a $6.55 million loss on a securities portfolio repositioning, which management expects to recoup within 1.8 years through higher yields. Asset quality remains strong, with nonaccrual loans at just 0.03% of total loans and an allowance for credit losses covering 0.99% of loans. The bank's capital position is robust, with a Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 16.52%, well above regulatory minimums.
