Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements include the accounts of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a stock holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rhinebeck Bank (the “Bank”), a New York chartered stock savings bank. The primary purpose of the Company is to act as a holding company for the Bank. The Bank provides a full range of banking and financial services to consumer and commercial customers through its
The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any other period.
The unaudited financial statements and other financial information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, and related notes, of the Company at and for the year ended December 31, 2024 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2025 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”).
For more information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. As of March 31, 2025, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements– Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies.
Basis of Financial Statements Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), the evaluation of goodwill for impairment and the valuation of deferred tax assets.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements may be reclassified as required to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on our previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity. From and after January 1, 2025, the Company reclassified swap income in its consolidated financial statements. In the consolidated statements of income as of March 31, 2024, $

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In annual periods, this requires disclosure of an entity’s accounting policy related to the entity’s presentation of cash flows associated with derivative instruments and the related gains and losses in the statement of cash flows. This also requires disclosure of the methods used in the diluted earnings per share computation for each dilutive security and clarifies that certain disclosures should be made during interim periods. The effective dates of ASU 2023-06 will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The amendments in ASU 2023-09 require greater disaggregation of income tax disclosures related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The ASU indicates that all entities will apply its guidance prospectively with an option for retroactive application to each period in the financial statements. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and for interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with an allowance for early adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures”, which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. The ASU requires new financial statement disclosures in tabular format, disaggregating information about prescribed categories underlying any relevant income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, ASU 2024-03 may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At March 31, 2025, the Company had
The Company evaluates securities in an unrealized loss position for impairment related to credit losses on at least a quarterly basis. Securities in unrealized loss positions are first assessed as to whether we intend to sell, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If one of the criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through current earnings. For securities that do not meet these criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value resulted from credit losses or other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Unrealized losses on asset-backed securities, state and municipal securities, and corporate bonds have not been recognized into income because the issuers are of high credit quality, we do not intend to sell and it is likely that we will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery. The decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments on the securities. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.
Federal agency obligations, residential mortgage-backed pass-through securities and commercial mortgage-backed pass-through securities are issued by U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises. Although a government guarantee exists on these investments, these entities are not legally backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government. Nonetheless, at this time we do not foresee any set of circumstances in which the government would not fund its commitments on these investments.

Actual maturities of mortgage-backed securities may differ from contractual maturities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid without any penalties.

The Company elected not to measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable, because a timely write-off policy exists. A security is placed on non-accrual status at the time any principal or interest payments become more than 90 days delinquent or if full collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain. Accrued interest for a security placed on non-accrual status is reversed against interest income. There were

In the normal course of business, the Company grants loans to officers, directors and other related parties. Balances and activity of such loans during the periods presented were not material.
On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, multifamily, construction and commercial loans. To assist in the review process, the Company engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Consumer loans are rated as performing or non-performing based on payment status in accordance with regulatory retail credit guidance. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. In addition, management utilizes delinquency reports, the watch list and other loan reports to monitor credit quality of other loan segments.
Credit Quality Indicators. The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on all loans at origination and is updated on a quarterly basis for loans risk rated Watch, Special Mention, Substandard, or Doubtful.
The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Watch – Loans classified as watch exhibit weaknesses that require more than usual monitoring. Issues may include deteriorating financial condition, payments made after due date but within 30 days, adverse industry conditions or management problems.
Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention exhibit signs of further deterioration but still generally make payments within 30 days. This is a transitional rating and loans should typically not be rated Special Mention for more than 12 months.
Substandard – Loans classified as substandard possess weaknesses that jeopardize the ultimate collection of the principal and interest outstanding. These loans exhibit continued financial losses, ongoing delinquency, overall poor financial condition, and/or insufficient collateral. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful – Loans classified as non-performing have all the weaknesses of substandard loans, and have deteriorated to the level that there is a high probability of substantial loss.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above-described process are considered Pass rated loans.

The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant.

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present the value of the minimum lease payments. The Company’s leases have maturities which range from 2026 to 2048, some of which include lessee options to extend the lease term. If the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability.

9. Commitments and Contingencies and Derivatives
Legal Matters
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Employment Agreements
The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain officers. The agreements provide for base salaries and incentive compensation based on performance criteria outlined in the agreements. The agreements also provide for insurance and various other benefits.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit, which include new loan commitments, undisbursed portions of construction loans and other lines of credit and loans sold with recourse. We are obligated under a recourse provision associated with certain first mortgage renovation loans sold in the secondary market to bear all costs when a default, including a foreclosure, occurs. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk are as follows:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since these commitments could expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon an extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include residential and commercial property, deposits and securities.

Interest Rate Swaps
The Company enters into interest rate swaps that allow commercial loan customers to effectively convert a variable-rate loan agreement to a fixed-rate loan agreement. Under these agreements, the Company simultaneously enters into a variable-rate loan and an interest rate swap agreement with a customer. The Company then enters into a corresponding and offsetting swap agreement with a third party to hedge the exposure created by the customer agreements. The interest rate swaps with both the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are marked to market through earnings. The fair values of the swaps are recorded as both an asset and a liability, in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in equal amounts for these transactions. The accrued interest

10. Regulatory Matters
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of total, common equity Tier 1 and additional Tier I capital (as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 324.20) to risk-weighted assets and of Tier I capital to average assets. Management believes, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
The most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, common equity Tier 1, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since then which management believes have changed the Bank’s category.
The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios were:

11. Fair Value
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial and non-financial instruments not recorded at fair value, is set forth below.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Available for Sale Securities
Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical securities, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include marketable equity securities and U.S. Treasury obligations. If quoted prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models (i.e., matrix pricing) or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Examples of such instruments include government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. Level 3 securities include securities for which significant unobservable inputs are utilized. Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
FHLB Stock
The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.
Loans
Loans receivable are carried at cost. For variable rate loans, which reprice frequently, carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair values adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the year end rates, estimated using local market data, at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral-dependent individually analyzed loans are recorded to reflect partial write-downs based on the observable market price or current appraised value of collateral.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is utilized in the fair value measurements.
Accrued Interest
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
30
Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
Mortgage Servicing Rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value and are included in other assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition.
Deposits
Deposit liabilities are carried at cost. The fair value of NOW, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities estimated using local market data to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on such deposits.
Mortgagors’ Escrow Accounts
The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on deposited escrow accounts of similarly expected maturities.
Advances from the FHLB
The fair value of the advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current FHLB interest rates for advances of similar maturity to a schedule of maturities of such advances.
Subordinated Debt
Based on the floating rate characteristic of these instruments, the carrying value is considered to approximate fair value.
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments
Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standings. Such amounts are not significant.
Loan Level Interest Rate Swaps
The fair value is based on settlement values adjusted for credit risks associated with the counterparties and the Company and observable market interest rate curves.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our most significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Certain of these accounting policies require management to use significant judgment and estimates, which can have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. We consider these policies to be our critical accounting estimates. The judgment and assumptions made are based upon historical experience, future forecasts, and/or other factors that management believes to be reasonable. Because of the nature of the judgment and assumptions, actual results could differ from estimates, which could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We consider the allowance for credit losses to be our most critical accounting policy.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company's allowance for credit losses is its estimate of credit losses currently expected in the loan portfolio, on unfunded lending commitments, and on its available-for-sale securities portfolio over the expected life of those assets. While these estimates are based on substantive methods for determining the required allowance, actual outcomes may differ significantly from estimated results, especially when determining required allowances for larger, complex commercial credits or unfunded lending commitments to commercial borrowers. Consumer loans, including indirect automobile loans and single family residential real estate, are smaller and generally behave in a similar manner, and loss estimates for these credits are considered more predictable. Additionally, the Company estimates the allowance for credit losses as a calculation of expected lifetime credit losses utilizing a forward-looking forecast of macroeconomic conditions, which may differ significantly from actual results. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance is provided in Note 3 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q and in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2025.
Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024
Total Assets. Total assets remained relatively stable at $1.26 billion at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, reflecting a minimal increase of $159,000. While several asset categories fluctuated during the period, the most notable changes included a $13.0 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and a $15.1 million decrease in available-for-sale securities. Net loans receivable increased by $4.7 million, or 0.5%, to $976.5 million and other assets decreased $1.1 million, or 4.5%.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $13.0 million, or 34.8%, to $50.5 million at March 31, 2025 from $37.5 million at December 31, 2024 primarily due to an $8.5 million, or 46.2%, increase in federal funds sold, as well as increases in deposits held at the FHLB, Federal Reserve Bank of New York and other interest-bearing depository accounts with proceeds resulting from principal payments and maturities of investment securities.
Investment Securities Available for Sale. Available-for-sale securities declined $15.1 million, or 9.4%, to $144.9 million at March 31, 2025 from $159.9 million at December 31, 2024, primarily due to paydowns, calls and maturities of $18.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in the unrealized loss of $2.3 million and purchases of $631,000.
Net Loans. Net loans receivable increased $4.7 million, or 0.5%, to $976.5 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $971.8 million at December 31, 2024. This increase reflects growth in our commercial and residential real estate loan portfolios of $17.9 million and $4.3 million, respectively, partially offset by a $17.7 million decrease in consumer loans. The increase in commercial real estate loans was primarily due to a $16.6 million increase in non-residential real estate loans and a $3.4 million increase in multi-family commercial real estate loans, partially offset by a $2.0 million decrease in commercial construction loans. The decrease in consumer loans is the result of a strategic reduction in indirect automobile loans of $17.7 million. At March 31, 2025, indirect automobile loans were 22.1% of assets, compared to 23.5% at December 31, 2024. Non-accrual loans decreased by $622,000, or 15.0%, between December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025.
39
Total Liabilities. Total liabilities decreased $4.0 million, or 0.4%, to $1.13 billion at March 31, 2025. The reduction was primarily driven by a $15.9 million decrease in FHLB advances and a $1.8 million decline in mortgagors' escrow accounts, partially offset by a $13.5 million increase in total deposits.
Deposits. Deposits increased $13.5 million, or 1.3%, to $1.03 billion at March 31, 2025 from $1.02 billion at December 31, 2024. Interest-bearing deposits increased $13.6 million, or 1.7%, while non-interest-bearing deposits decreased by $174,000. The increase in savings of $2.7 million and in money market accounts of $25.1 million reflected the Bank’s promotion of higher-yielding products in response to customer demand for better interest rates. These increases were partially offset by decreases in NOW accounts and certificates of deposit of $5.9 million and $8.3 million, respectively.
We participate in reciprocal deposit programs, obtained through the Certificate Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) and IntraFi Cash Service (ICS) networks, that provide access to FDIC-insured deposit products in aggregate amounts exceeding the current limits for depositors. This allows us to maintain deposits that might otherwise be uninsured. Our reciprocal deposits obtained through the CDARS and ICS networks totaled $33.6 million and $38.9 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We had no brokered deposits at either March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Mortgagors’ escrow accounts. Mortgagors’ escrow accounts decreased $1.8 million, or 19.1%, to $7.6 million at March 31, 2025 from $9.4 million at December 31, 2024, primarily due to the timing of property tax and insurance disbursements.
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. FHLB advances declined $15.9 million, or 22.8%, to $53.9 million at March 31, 2025 from $69.8 million at December 31, 2024. The reduction reflects the Company’s use of excess liquidity from the maturity of securities, lower loan origination activity and increased deposits to pay down borrowings.
Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $4.1 million, or 3.4%, to $126.0 million at March 31, 2025 from $121.8 million at December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to $2.3 million in net income and a $1.8 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss reflecting the results of the balance sheet restructuring. The Company’s book value per share was $11.35 at March 31, 2025, compared to $10.98 at December 31, 2024. The ratio of stockholders’ equity to total assets increased to 10.0% from 9.7% over the same period. Unearned common stock held by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan was $3.0 million and $3.1 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
Net Income. Net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.3 million, compared to $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2024. Diluted earnings per share were $0.21 for the first quarter of 2025, up from $0.10 for the same quarter a year ago. Interest and dividend income increased $1.1 million, or 7.0%, while interest expense decreased $1.1 million, or 16.9%. The provision for credit losses increased $270,000, or 325.3%. Non-interest income rose $161,000, or 10.1%, and non-interest expense increased $631,000, or 7.1%. Provision for income taxes increased $318,000, or 99.1%, between the comparable quarters.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $2.2 million, or 25.2%, to $11.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities rose 2 percentage points to 134.00%, while the net interest margin expanded by 89 basis points to 3.79% compared to the same quarter in 2024. The increase in the net interest margin was primarily due to a higher yield on loans and securities, coupled with a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate spread improved 94 basis points from 2.19% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to 3.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting better pricing on assets versus liabilities. A balance sheet restructuring in the second half of 2024 significantly increased the yield on our available for sale securities.
40
Interest Income. Interest income increased $1.1 million, or 7.0%, to $16.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $15.6 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher yields on loans and securities, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 60 basis points to 5.71%, while the average balance of interest-earning assets declined by $42.2 million, or 3.4%, to $1.18 billion. The average yield on loans increased 44 basis points, to 6.14%, and the average yield on available-for-sale securities increased 142 basis points, to 3.25%. The average balance of loans decreased $17.6 million, and the average balance of available-for-sale securities declined $33.7 million, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $1.1 million, or 16.9%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2024. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined by 34 basis points, to 2.58%, reflecting lower funding costs and a favorable shift in funding mix, despite the ongoing elevated interest rate environment. The average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased $46.2 million, or 5.0%, to $882.1 million, primarily due to a $48.0 million decline in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, which fell from $123.0 million to $75.0 million. The average cost of these advances also declined by 86 basis points, from 4.93% to 4.07%.
Provision for Credit Losses. The provision for credit losses on loans increased $270,000, or 325.3%, to $353,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $83,000 for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to increased loan production and increased charge-offs during the quarter.
Net charge-offs increased $260,000, or 104.0%, from $250,000 for the first quarter of 2024 to $510,000 for the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to increased net charge-offs of $162,000 and $139,000 in indirect automobile loans and commercial loans, respectively. The percentage of overdue account balances to total loans decreased to 1.38% as of March 31, 2025 from 1.71% as of December 31, 2024, while non-performing assets decreased $622,000, or 15.0%, to $3.5 million at March 31, 2025.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $161,000, or 10.1%, from the comparable period in 2024, due primarily to an increase of $166,000, or 66.4%, in other non-interest income as swap income increased. Service charges on deposit accounts also increased by $30,000, or 4.0%, as deposits increased. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in investment advisory income of $45,000, or 11.8%, resulting from a decline in assets under management due to unpredictable economic and market conditions. Gains on sales of loans also decreased $8,000 as we sold $385,000 of residential mortgage loans in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to sales of $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2024.
Non-Interest Expense. For the first quarter of 2025, non-interest expense rose to $9.5 million, reflecting a $631,000, or 7.1%, increase compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was broad-based, with almost all major expense categories rising. Other non-interest expense grew by $256,000, or 16.8%, driven by higher retail banking costs. Salaries and benefits rose $142,000, primarily due to increased production commissions. Marketing expense rose by $79,000, or 65.3%, largely due to promotional initiatives associated with the launch of higher-yielding deposit products. Additionally, professional fees, FDIC insurance expense, and data processing fees increased by $63,000, $44,000, and $30,000, respectively.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes increased $318,000, or 99.1%, totaling $639,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $321,000 for the same period in 2024. The increased income tax provision corresponds to higher pre-tax income during the quarter. The effective tax rate was 21.83% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to 22.26% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the period indicated (in thousands). The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the rate and volume columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume. The Company did not have any excludable out-of-period items or adjustments.

Management of Market Risk
General. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of loans and securities, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage our exposure to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, the Board of Directors maintains a management-level Asset/Liability Management Committee (the “ALCO”), which takes primary responsibility for reviewing the Company’s asset/liability management process and related procedures, establishing and monitoring reporting systems and ascertaining that established asset/liability strategies are being maintained. On at least a quarterly basis, the ALCO reviews and reports to the Board asset/liability management outcomes from various modeling scenarios. The ALCO also implements any changes in strategies and reviews the performance of any specific asset/liability management actions that have been implemented.
We manage our interest rate risk to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in market interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: originating loans with adjustable interest rates or with shorter terms, promoting core deposit products, and adjusting the interest rates and maturities of funding sources, as necessary. By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.
43
Net Economic Value Simulation. We analyze the Bank’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates through a net economic value of equity (“EVE”) model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. The EVE ratio represents the dollar amount of our EVE divided by the present value of our total assets for a given interest rate scenario. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology while the EVE ratio reflects that value as a form of capital ratio. We estimate what our EVE would be at a specific date. We then forecast what the EVE might be at the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate the EVE under scenarios where interest rates increase 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates and where interest rates decrease 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates.
The following table presents the estimated changes in the Bank’s EVE that would result from changes in market interest rates at March 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands).

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above table assumes that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our EVE and will likely differ from actual results.
Liquidity Management
We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, repay our borrowings and to fund loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives.
Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, loan sales, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities, sales and calls of investment securities and other short-term investments, earnings, funds provided from operations, as well as access to FHLB advances and other borrowings. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan and security sales and prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition.

As reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net cash provided by operating activities was $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to net cash used of $3.5 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to a prior year $5.0 million U.S. Treasury bond that matured on March 31, 2024 and was awaiting settlement. Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $13.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, a decrease from $27.5 million in the prior-year period, driven primarily by net loan growth of $5.1 million in the first three months of 2025 versus a net reduction in loans of $15.4 million in the comparable 2024 period as well as $18.1 million of securities proceeds in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2024. Cash flows from financing activities reflected a net use of $4.2 million in the current quarter, compared to $15.5 million used in the prior-year period, with the reduced outflows mainly resulting from changes in deposit balances and short-term debt repayments. As a result of these activities, cash and cash equivalents increased by $13.0 million during the quarter to $50.5 million as of March 31, 2025, from a beginning balance of $37.5 million.
At March 31, 2025, we had the following main sources of availability of liquid funds and borrowings:

The Bank has access to a preapproved secured line of credit with the FHLB. At March 31, 2025, the Bank had pledged $482.0 million of assets to the FHLB, which resulted in a secured line of credit of $331.9 million. At March 31, 2025, the Bank had borrowed $53.9 million under this line, with remaining secured borrowing capacity of $278.1 million.
We also have commitments and obligations under our post-retirement plan and other benefit plans and our off-balance sheet financial instruments, as described in Note 7 and Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial condition and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are periodically involved in legal proceedings, such as employment-related claims against us, claims to enforce liens, foreclosure or condemnation proceedings on properties in which we hold security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans, and other issues incidental to our business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factor represents a material update and addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
If we do not successfully manage the transition associated with the retirement of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), it could be viewed negatively by our customers and shareholders and could have an adverse impact on our business.
On March 21, 2025, Michael J. Quinn announced his intention to retire as the Company’s CEO and as a member of the Board effective on the earlier of December 31, 2025 or when a successor is found to ensure an orderly transition. The Board of Directors of the Bank has formed a Search Committee to find a successor to Mr. Quinn. Leadership transitions can be difficult and may present challenges, including potential disruption to our operations and relationships with customers, regulators, vendors, and employees. If the CEO transition is not effectively managed, or if we are unable to identify and secure a qualified successor in a timely manner, our ability to execute our strategic initiatives and meet our financial and operational goals could be negatively impacted. Additionally, uncertainty surrounding the transition may affect employee morale and retention, and could hinder our ability to attract and hire key personnel.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities, Use of Proceeds, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
In September 2022, the Board approved a stock repurchase plan pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to 247,506 shares of its common stock, of which 47,506 shares remain available for repurchase. The repurchase plan has no expiration date. No shares were repurchased under the stock repurchase plan during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
There were no sales of unregistered securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
