Balance   Sheet   Highlights
Total assets on June 30, 2026 were $2.335 billion, an increase of 4.3% from $2.239 billion on December 31, 2025. Significant changes in the balance sheet from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026 include:
Debt Securities Available for Sale:  Decreased $2.2 million, or (0.5%), net of purchases, due primarily to paydowns.  On June 30, 2026, the net unrealized loss in the portfolio was $29.1 million compared to $26.8 million at year-end 2025.
Net L oans:  Increased $48.2 million or 3.1% (6.2% annualized) over the year-end 2025 balance, primarily from an increase of $45.8 million in commercial real estate (CRE) loans and $24.7 million in residential 1-4 family loans, which was partially offset by a decrease of $19.6 million in commercial (C&I) loans. As of June 30, 2026, CRE loans totaled $949.4 million with the largest collateral segments being: apartment buildings ($161.9 million), hotels and motels ($105.8 million), and office buildings ($100.1 million), primarily in the Bank's market area of south-central Pennsylvania. The Bank's CRE non-owner occupied concentration ratio was 348.2% of risk-based capital as of June 30, 2026, down from 349.9% on December 31, 2025.
Deposits:  Increased $88.8 million or 4.8% (9.6% annualized)) from year-end 2025. The majority of the growth occurred in noninterest-bearing checking accounts and money management accounts, which was partially offset by a decrease in interest-bearing checking and savings accounts. At June 30, 2026, 17.7% of total deposits were in noninterest checking accounts, compared to 16.9% at year-end 2025. For the first six months of 2026, the cost of total deposits was 1.51%, a decrease from 1.85% for the full year of 2025. On June 30, 2026, the Bank estimated that approximately 90% of its deposits were FDIC insured or collateralized.
Shareholders' Equity:  Increased $8.6 million to $183.8 million on June 30, 2026 from year-end 2025, and retained earnings increased $10.2 million, net of dividends of $3.0 million, over the same period.  The accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCI) increased $1.9 million during the first six months of 2026 to $23.5 million. On June 30, 2026, the book value of the Corporation's common stock was $40.91 per share and tangible book value (1)  increased $1.81 per share from December 31, 2025 to $38.90 per share.  In December 2025, an open market repurchase plan was approved to repurchase 150,000 shares over a one-year period and 10,950 shares were repurchased in the first six months of 2026 under the approved plan to fund the dividend reinvestment plan.  The Bank is considered to be well-capitalized under regulatory guidance as of June 30, 2026.
Average Assets :  Average interest-earning assets for the first six months of 2026 were $2.198 billion, compared to $2.146 billion for the same period in 2025, an increase of 2.5%. This increase occurred primarily in the loan portfolio which increased 8.8%, driven by a $82.2 million (9.9%) increase in commercial real estate loans and a $44.0 million (17.6%) increase in first lien 1-4 residential real estate loans. The yield on earning assets decreased from 5.28% for the first six months of 2025 to 5.25% for the first six months of 2026. The yield on the loan portfolio increased by 9 basis points, but this increase was partially offset as higher yielding investments continued to paydown and the yield on interest-earning deposits in other banks declined. The yield on earning assets was 5.22% for the second quarter of 2026.   Total deposits averaged $1.878 billion for the first six months of 2026, an increase of $26.7 million (1.4%) over the average balance for the same period in 2025.  The cost of total deposits decreased from 1.95% for the first six months of 2025 to 1.51% for the first six months of 2026 and decreased to 1.50% for the second quarter of 2026.
Nonperforming Assets:  Nonperforming loans (nonaccrual loans and loans 90 days past due and still accruing) totaled $17.7 million on June 30, 2026, compared to $8.5 million on December 31, 2025, an increase of $9.2 million due to the addition of an $8.8 million CRE loan to nonaccrual during the second quarter of 2026.  Nonperforming loans were 1.1% of total gross loans on June 30, 2026 compared to 0.55% on December 31, 2025. The nonperforming loans are comprised primarily of two (2) CRE loans to unrelated borrowers totaling $17.4 million.  Of these two CRE loans, one is for a matured $7.0 million construction loan on a mixed-use commercial project.  During the second quarter, the Bank committed to provide additional funding of up to $2.5 million (with $1.6 million advanced as of June 30, 2026) to fully enclose the property and protect the collateral, and to pay all past due construction costs. As part of this funding commitment, a forbearance agreement was signed by the developer that ceased all construction until funding from new sources was acquired, established specific performance criteria for the developer, and established specific remedies for the Bank in the event of non-compliance with the forbearance agreement.   Based on a discounted "as-is" appraisal received in the first quarter of 2026 and the additional funding committe
