Jeffrey A. Stopko, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented on the third quarter 2026 financial results: "AmeriServ Financial achieved record quarterly earnings in the third quarter of 2026 due to growth in total revenue and favorable asset quality trends. The increase in total revenue was caused by improvement in our net interest income for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 because of effective balance sheet management. Specifically, our net interest margin increased by 21-basis points in the first nine months of 2026 leading to a $2.3 million increase in net interest income, which is important since it represents approximately 72% of our total revenue. The reengineering of our wealth management business is yielding positive results and contributed to growth in non-interest revenue. Our Company is well positioned for growth in the future as we have solid capital and improving efficiency."

All third quarter and nine months 2026 financial performance metrics within this document are compared to the third quarter and nine months of 2025 unless otherwise noted.

Net interest income in the third quarter of 2026 increased by $438,000, or 4.0%, from the prior year's third quarter and, for the first nine months of 2026, increased by $2.3 million, or 7.3%, when compared to the first nine months of 2025.  The Company's net interest margin of 3.41% for the third quarter of 2026 and 3.34% for the nine months of 2026 represents a 14-basis point improvement for the quarter and a 21-basis point increase for the nine-months.  Along with the sharply improved net interest margin performance, the increase also reflects controlled balance sheet growth, as both total earning assets and total deposits are at higher average levels due to effective balance sheet management. This, combined with effective pricing strategies and a steeper U.S. Treasury yield curve, resulted in both the total earning asset yield and cost of interest-bearing funds improving between years. Management believes the favorable net interest margin performance experienced in the first nine months of 2026 will continue into the fourth quarter. Earnings performance in 2026 was also favorably impacted by a lower provision for credit losses reflecting improvement in the bank's asset quality.  An increase in non-interest expense for both 2026 time periods was partially offset by improved non-interest income for the same time frames. Overall, the improvement in the Company's financial performance was caused by increased total revenue and a lower provision for credit losses which more than offset higher non-interest expense resulting in earnings through nine months of 2026 exceeding earnings through nine months of 2025 by $3.5 million, or 83%. 

Total investment securities averaged $311.5 million for the third quarter of 2026, which was $55.8 million, or 21.8%, higher than the $255.8 million average for the third quarter of 2025.  Similar trends were noted for the nine-month period. These increases reflect a higher level of loan prepayment activity as well as our liquidity position strengthening due to deposit growth.  Therefore, more funds were available to invest in the securities portfolio during a time when security yields improved, making purchases more attractive. As a result, the securities portfolio grew by $44.6 million, or 17.9%, since December 31, 2025.  New investment security purchases were also necessary to replace cash flow from maturing securities to maintain appropriate balances for pledging purposes related to public fund deposits. The higher balances and improved yields for new securities purchases caused interest income from investments to increase by $719,000, or 25.7%, for the third quarter and by $2.0 million, or 25.3%, for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the same time periods last year.

Total average loans for the third quarter of 2026 declined from the third quarter of 2025 by $62.5 million, or 5.9%, due to increased loan payoff activity, particularly from the commercial real estate (CRE) portfolio, which exceeded loan originations.  A similar trend was noted for the nine-month period as total average loans dropped $49.1 million, or 4.6%.  As a result of this decline in the CRE loan portfolio and growth in the bank's capital, the bank's CRE loan concentration in relation to capital has dropped from 352% at December 31, 2025, to 319% at September 30, 2026.  Total loan interest income decreased by $933,000, or 5.9%, for the third quarter and by $1.4 million, or 3.0%, for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the same time periods last year.  This decline reflects the lower average loan balance more than offsetting the benefits of a better interest rate environment in 2026, and a portion of CRE loans, that were booked during the COVID pandemic when interest rates were low, repricing upward in 2026.  Overall, through nine months of 2026, the average balance of total interest earning assets increased from last year's average by $7.3 million, or 0.5%, while total interest income increased by $676,000, or 1.3%, from the first nine months of 2025 due to the increased revenue contribution from the investment securities portfolio.

On the liability side of the balance sheet, total deposits averaged $1.24 billion for the third quarter of 2026 which was modestly higher than the third quarter of 2025 average due to the Company's successful business development efforts.  Additionally, the Company's core deposit base continues to demonstrate the strength and stability that it has for many years due to customer loyalty and confidence in AmeriServ Financial Bank.  The Company does not utilize brokered deposits as a funding source.  The loan to deposit ratio averaged 81.0% in the third quarter of 2026, which indicates that the Company has ample capacity to continue to grow its loan portfolio and is well positioned to support our customers and our community during times of economic volatility.

Total interest expense decreased by $652,000, or 8.7%, for the third quarter of 2026 and decreased by $1.6 million, or 7.3%, for the nine months when compared to both time periods of 2025.  Deposit interest expense declined by $1.1 million, or 5.8%, through the first nine months of 2026 despite total average interest-bearing deposits growing by $29.0 million, or 2.7%, compared to the first nine months of last year.  The decrease in deposit interest expense reflects management's effective deposit pricing strategies along with the benefit of the Federal Reserve easing monetary policy during the final four months of 2025.  This reduction in interest-bearing deposit costs contributed to the previously mentioned improvement in the net interest margin.  Overall, total deposit cost (including the benefit of non-interest-bearing demand deposits) averaged 1.92% for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, which is an 18-basis point improvement from the third quarter of 2025. 

 Total borrowings interest expense decreased by $93,000, or 10.0%, for the third quarter of 2026 and declined by $493,000, or 17.7%, for the first nine months when compared to both time periods of 2025.  Due to the higher level of total average deposits, management elected not to replace maturing Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances during the first nine months of 2026. Therefore, the total average balance of FHLB borrowings for the first nine months of 2026 decreased by $15.9 million, or 27.7%, from the same period of last year. The cost of the company's subordinated debt increased as of September 1, 2026, from its previous five-year fixed rate of 3.75% to a floating rate of 6.94% (311-basis points over three-month term SOFR) which increased interest expense by $72,000 in the third quarter of 2026.

The Company recorded a $3,000 provision for credit losses recovery in the third quarter of 2026 after recording a $360,000 provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2025, resulting in a favorable shift of $363,000.  For the first nine months of 2026, the Company recognized an $80,000 provision for credit losses recovery after recognizing a $3.4 million provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2025, resulting in a net favorable change of $3.5 million. The provision recovery in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 reflected a continuing favorable trend for historical loan loss rates along with a softening of reserve requirements due to the contraction in the size of the loan portfolio.  The large provision for credit losses in the first nine months of 2025 was needed to resolve the Company's largest non-performing loan which also included a related $2.8 million loan charge-off in the second quarter of last year.  

Non-performing assets totaled $8.2 million at September 30, 2026, which represented a decrease of $326,000, or 3.8%, since year-end 2025. Non-performing loans represented 0.77% of total loans on September 30, 2026.  The Company recognized net loan charge-offs of $228,000, or 0.03% of total average loans, in the first nine months of 2026 compared to net loan charge-offs of $2.9 million, or 0.37% of total average loans, in the first nine months of 2025.  Overall, the Company's allowance for loan credit losses provided 169% coverage of non-performing loans and represented 1.29% of total loans at September 30, 2026.   

Total non-interest income in the third quarter of 2026 increased by $117,000, or 2.7%, from the prior year's third quarter and increased by $434,000, or 3.4%, in the first nine months of 2026 when compared to the first nine months of 2025.  The increase in both time periods was due primarily to higher levels of wealth management fees in 2026 which increased by $595,000 in the third quarter and $903,000, or 10.6%, for the nine-month period.  The third quarter increase included the receipt of a $402,000 transition payment for moving our broker dealer to Ameriprise Financial Services.  The remainder of the increase for both periods was due to market appreciation of customer assets as the equity markets moved to record levels throughout 2026.  Overall, the fair market value of wealth management assets totaled $2.8 billion at September 30, 2026, and increased by $121.9 million, or 4.5%, since December 31, 2025.  Other income also increased by $366,000 for the third quarter and $328,000 for the nine months of 2026 due largely to positive adjustments to the fair market value of interest rate swaps related to a risk participation agreement for a commercial banking customer.  These favorable items were partially offset by a decrease in BOLI revenue of $291,000 for the third quarter and $199,000 for the nine months due to fewer death claims in 2026.  The Company also recognized a loss on trading securities of $438,000 for the third quarter and $441,000 for the nine months of 2026 as rising interest rates negatively impacted the performance of this asset.   

Total non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2026 increased by $176,000, or 1.5%, when compared to the third quarter of 2025 and increased by $1.9 million, or 5.2%, during the first nine months of 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025.  Professional fees increased by $664,000 for the third quarter and by $1.7 million, or 76.0%, for the nine months due to additional expenses related to expanded consulting services provided to the Company by SB Value Partners in accordance with the amended and restated consulting agreement. The costs related to the migration and upgrade of the bank's core processing system caused data processing and IT expense to increase by $110,000 for the third quarter and $202,000 for the first nine months of 2026. A reduced number of employees in 2026 caused salaries and employee benefits to decrease by $90,000 in the third quarter and to increase by only $248,000, or 1.1%, for the nine-month period.  Other expenses decreased by $500,000 in the third quarter and $266,000, or 7.0%, for the nine months as the bank recognized a favorable settlement charge credit of $410,000 on the bank's defined benefit pension plan in the third quarter of 2026. 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $1.8 million in the first nine months of 2026, or an effective tax rate of 19.2%, which compares to income tax expense of $948,000, or an effective tax rate of 18.5%, in the first nine months of 2025. The higher income tax expense in 2026 was caused by the Company's increased pre-tax earnings this year.

The Company had total assets of $1.45 billion, shareholders' equity of $122 million, a book value of $7.18 per common share and a tangible book value of $6.38(1) per common share on September 30, 2026.  Book value per common share increased by $0.24, or 3.5%, and tangible book value per common share also increased by $0.27, or 4.4%, over the past 12 months. The Company and Bank continued to maintain a strong capital position that exceeds the regulatory defined well-capitalized status as of September 30, 2026.

QUARTERLY COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND

The Company's Board of Directors declared a $0.03 per share quarterly common stock cash dividend. The cash dividend is payable November 16, 2026, to shareholders of record on November 2, 2026. This cash dividend represents a 2.6% annualized yield using the October 16, 2026, closing stock price of $4.54 and a 20% payout ratio based upon 2026 year to date earnings.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

RETURN ON AVERAGE TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY, TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY RATIO, AND TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE

(Dollars in thousands, except share, per share, and ratio data)

(Unaudited)

The press release contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP).  These non-GAAP financial measures are "return on average tangible common equity", "tangible common equity ratio", and "tangible book value per share".  This non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.  These non-GAAP measures are used by management in their analysis of the Company's performance or, management believes, facilitate an understanding of the Company's performance.  We also believe that presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of our historical operating results and trends in our underlying operating results.  We consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends.
