· Issued by 1st Summit Bancorp Johnstown, Inc. via Business Wire

JOHNSTOWN, Pa., April 14, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--1st Summit Bancorp of Johnstown (OTC: FSMK) ("1st Summit"), the parent company of 1st Summit Bank (the "Bank") today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Financial Highlights:

  • Net Income: The Company reported net income of $775 thousand for the first quarter of 2025, or $0.36 per diluted share, representing a 28.0% increase compared to the December 2024 quarter after excluding a non-recurring gain after tax from a sale-leaseback transaction completed in the fourth quarter of 2024.

  • Loan Growth: Total loans increased by 1.01% during the quarter, representing an annualized growth rate of 4.08%.

  • Net Interest Margin: The net interest margin expanded by 38 basis points, from 1.64% at March 31, 2024 to 2.02% at March 31, 2025, or 23.2%, from the prior year quarter.

  • Deposits: Total deposits declined by 5.8%% annualized from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025; however, the proportion of noninterest-bearing deposits increased to 10.3% of total deposits, up from 9.5% at December 31, 2024.

CEO Commentary:
Allison Johnson, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated:

"The first quarter of 2025 reflects our unwavering commitment to strengthening 1st Summit Bancorp's financial foundation. We achieved solid loan growth and a notable expansion in net interest margin, underscoring the effectiveness of our strategic initiatives."

"During the first quarter, we successfully resolved a significant impaired loan, which allowed us to release previously established reserves. This contributed to a reduction in our allowance for loan losses and a lower reserve coverage ratio. This highlights our proactive approach to credit risk management."

"We are responding proactively to the current interest rate environment to actively rebalance our asset and liability mix in an effort to enhance profitability. Our focus includes capitalizing on funding opportunities near the middle of the yield curve, which have been under pressure due to the expected impact of tariffs, and reducing our reliance on overnight funding, which is significantly more expensive at current rates. The duration of the funding we are procuring aligns well with maturities of long duration assets that will begin to mature in the middle of 2026."

"While we experienced a decline in total deposits, the improvement in our deposit mix—specifically, the increase in noninterest-bearing deposits—is a positive development. This shift aligns with our strategic emphasis on expanding commercial and industrial lending, which often brings associated operating account deposits. By deepening relationships with our business clients, we aim to further enhance our deposit composition and overall financial performance."

"Looking ahead, we remain optimistic about our growth prospects. Our focus is on delivering value to our shareholders through prudent financial management and exceptional customer service. We believe that our strategic initiatives position us well to capitalize on future opportunities."
