  The company reported net income of $134.2 million ($3.49 diluted EPS), a return on average assets of 1.38%, and a return on average equity of 9.29% for 2025. Total loans increased by $329 million (4.25%) and customer deposits grew by $220.5 million.

• Asset Quality Deterioration Confirmed

  Nonperforming assets significantly increased to $55.6 million, or 0.69% of total loans plus OREO, at December 31, 2025, up from $27.9 million, or 0.36%, at December 31, 2024. This confirms the deteriorating asset quality noted in the recent 10-K.

• Executive Compensation Payouts

  Named Executive Officers (NEOs) received 2025 Management Incentive Plan (MIP) payouts at 119% of the corporate component target. Performance-based shares granted under the 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) vested at 172% on April 1, 2025, reflecting strong ROAE and TSR performance.

• Board Leadership Structure Changes

  Following the former Chair's resignation in late 2025, CEO Christopher J. McComish was appointed Chair of the Board, and Jeffrey D. Grube was appointed Lead Independent Director to strengthen independent oversight.

This definitive proxy statement provides comprehensive details on S&T Bancorp's 2025 financial performance, executive compensation, and corporate governance matters ahead of its May 12, 2026, Annual Meeting. While the company reported strong net income and EPS growth, a notable increase in nonperforming assets signals a deterioration in asset quality, which is a key concern for a financial institution. Investors should weigh the positive earnings and executive performance incentives against the negative trend in asset quality. The board's decision to waive the mandatory retirement age for the Lead Independent Director also highlights a focus on leadership continuity.
