Earnings per share for the first nine months of 2024 were $3.25, as compared to earnings of $2.81 per share for the comparable period in 2023.

At September 30, 2024, total assets were $2.199 billion, an increase of $57 million, or 3%, compared to $2.142 billion at December 31, 2023.

Total deposits increased by $14 million, or 1%, to $1.724 billion compared to $1.710 billion at the end of 2023.

Paul M. McCarthy, Chairman & CEO, said, “the primary reason for the increase in consolidated earnings was a higher level of realized and unrealized gains on the Company’s equity portfolio in 2024. The increase in realized and unrealized gains on the Company’s equity portfolio was partially offset by a decrease in net interest income and an increase in provision for credit losses.”
