FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Norwood Financial Corp announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results

Quarterly Highlights:

 

   

Net interest margin increased 5 basis points vs. the prior quarter and 11 basis points over the prior year.

 

   

Loans grew at an 9% annualized rate during the fourth quarter.

 

   

Completed capital raise that supports our long-term strategy and repositions our investment portfolio to improve our yield on the portfolio.

 

   

Capital continues to improve due to recent equity offering and lower AOCI adjustment.

Honesdale, Pennsylvania – January 27, 2025 - Norwood Financial Corp (Nasdaq Global Market-NWFL) and its subsidiary, Wayne Bank, announced results for the three months and fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Jim Donnelly, President and Chief Executive Officer of Norwood Financial Corp and Wayne Bank, stated, “During the fourth quarter, we successfully completed a capital raise that enabled us to reposition our investment portfolio for improved yields on the portfolio in future periods. While we incurred a one-time $20 million loss as a result of this repositioning, we believe the portfolio is better positioned for the current and future interest rate environment. Excluding this loss, we performed well during the fourth quarter, delivering higher net interest income year-over-year for both the fourth quarter and the full year. As a result of these actions, we believe the Company is financially stronger and better protected from changes in interest rates and will enhance our future performance.”

Discussion of financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2024:

 

   

The Company has a net loss of $12.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. This was $13 million lower than the same period last year due one-time $20 million loss incurred on the sale of securities during December.

 

   

Net interest income was higher during the fourth quarter of 2024 than 2023 as increases in asset yields outpaced increases in yields on liabilities.

 

   

Correspondingly, the net interest margin in the fourth quarter was 3.04% in 2024 compared to 2.93% in 2023.

Discussion of financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024:

 

   

The Company posted a had a net loss of $160 thousand, or -$0.02 per diluted share, for the full-fiscal year ended year December 31, 2024 compared to net income of $16.8 million, or $2.07 per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended December in31. 2023. This loss was primarily due to a one-time $20 million loss incurred on the sale of securities during December 2024.

 

   

The full-year net interest margin was 2.91% in 2024 versus 3.06% in 2023. Deposit costs were higher in 2024, especially in the earlier part of the year, before the Federal Reserve began to cut rates.

 

   

Total non-interest expenses for 2024 were $48.6 million compared to $43.5 million in 2023. The increase was generally due to higher compensation and data processing costs.

 

   

Adjusted net income for the year was lower as higher net interest income and total other income was more than offset by an increase in total other expenses.

 

   

As of December 31, 2024, total assets were $2.317 billion, compared to $2.201 billion at December 31, 2023. Loans receivable were $1.693 billion, total deposits were $1.859 billion, and stockholders’ equity was $213.5 million.

 

   

Tangible Common Equity was 8.05% as of December 31, 2024, versus 6.98% at the end of 2023.

The following non-GAAP financial measures exclude the one-time $20.0 million net realized loss incurred in the fourth quarter as a result of the repositioning of our investment portfolio. Please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release references adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on tangible equity, all of which are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures. Adjusted values were derived by reversing the effect of loss on sale of securities in 2024 along with the attendant tax effect. We believe the presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on tangible equity ensures comparability of these measures as the portfolio restructuring is not something the Company expects to be a recurring event.
