Citizens Financial Services, Inc. Reports Unaudited Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Citizens Financial Services, Inc (Nasdaq: CZFS), parent company of First Citizens Community Bank (the "Bank"), released today its unaudited consolidated financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Highlights Net income for the first nine months of 2025 was $26,089,000, which was $6,254,000, or 31.5% more than 2024's net income through September 30, 2024 due to the increase in net interest income after the provision for credit losses of $8,920,000. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 was 18.9% compared to 17.8% in the comparable period in 2024. Net income was $10,005,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, which was $2,469,000 more than the net income for 2024's comparable period due to an increase in net interest income after the provision for credit losses of $3,116,000. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was 19.1% compared to 18.5% in the comparable period in 2024. Net interest income before the provision for credit losses was $71,790,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $8,208,000, or 12.9%, over the same period a year ago and was primarily due to an increase in investment income and a decrease in interest expense. The provision (release) for credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $500,000 and $1,875,000, respectively compared to $(200,000) and $2,587,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The provision for the 2025 periods was driven by the current economic forecasts. The provision for 2024 was significantly impacted by loans that were not sold as part of the sale of a division known as Braavo that occurred in the first quarter of 2024. The vast majority of the Braavo loans that were retained after the sale were originated by Huntington Valley Bank in 2023 prior to the acquisition and were current as of the acquisition date in 2023. The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, directly attributable to these loans was $1,806,000. Return on average equity for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2025 was 12.52% and 11.15% compared to 10.31% and 9.23% for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024. If the provision for the credit losses attributable to the Braavo loans and the gain on the sale of Braavo were excluded, the return on average equity for the nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024 would have been 9.56% (non-GAAP). (1) Return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP) for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2025 was 17.29% and 15.56% compared to 14.82% and 13.39% for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024. If the provision for the credit losses attributable to the Braavo loans and the gain on the sale of Braavo were excluded, the return on average tangible equity for the nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024 would have been 13.87% (non-GAAP). (1) Return on average assets for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2025 was 1.33% and 1.16% compared to 1.01% and 0.89% for the three and nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024. If the provision for the credit losses attributable to the Braavo loans and the gain on the sale of Braavo were excluded, the return on average assets for the nine months (annualized) ended September 30, 2024 would have been 0.92% (non-GAAP). (1) Non-performing assets decreased $5,618,000, or 19.6% since December 31, 2024 and totaled $22,994,000 as of September 30, 2025, which is $1,051,000 less than the balance as of September 30, 2024. During the third quarter of 2025, the Bank recognized additional interest income of $473,000 from the pay-offs of three relationships that for portions of the last year were considered non-performing. The decrease since December reflects three large relationships being placed back on accrual status due to making contractual payments for at least six consecutive months and the pay-offs of three large relationships in the third quarter of 2025 offset by placing two large relationships on non-accrual status. As a percent of loans, non-performing assets totaled 0.98%, 1.24% and 1.03% as of September 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 Compared to 2024 For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net income totaled $26,089,000 which compares to net income of $19,835,000 for the first nine months of 2024, an increase of $6,254,000. Basic earnings per share of $5.44 for the first nine months of 2025 compared to $4.14 for the first nine months last year. Annualized return on equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 11.15% and 9.23%, while annualized return on assets was 1.16% and 0.89%, respectively. The increase in performance when comparing 2025 to 2024 was due to an increase in the net interest margin from 3.09% to 3.44% and a decrease in the provision for credit losses. Net interest income before the provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $71,790,000 compared to $63,582,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in an increase of $8,208,000, or 12.9%. Average interest earning assets increased $39,854,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to an increase in taxable investments and outstanding student loans. Average loans increased $20,223,000, while average investment securities increased $24,472,000. The yield on interest earning assets increased nine basis points to 5.63%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 30 basis points to 2.72%. As a result, the tax effected net interest margin increased from 3.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 3.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $1,875,000 compared to $2,587,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $712,000. The provision for 2025 was driven by the economic forecasts and the annual update of loss drivers, which includes historical loss data, as well as prepayment and curtailment speeds. The provision for 2024 was impacted by the Braavo loans as previously mentioned and an increase in past due and classified loans during the second quarter of 2024. Total non-interest income was $10,946,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which is $1,116,000 less than the non-interest income of $12,062,000 for the same period last year. The primary drivers were the gain on the sale of assets associated with Braavo and earnings on bank owned life insurance due to the passing of a former employee in the first quarter of 2024. Total non-interest expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $48,709,000 compared to $48,918,000 for the same period last year, which is a decrease of $209,000. Salary and benefit costs increased $567,000 due to additional healthcare expenses and post-employment benefits. There are 12 fewer FTEs in 2025 compared to 2024. The decrease in professional fees and software costs is due to the sale of the Braavo division in 2024. The provision for income taxes increased $1,759,000 when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to the same period in 2024 as a result of an increase in income before income tax of $8,013,000. The effective tax rate was 18.9% and 17.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 Compared to 2024 For the three months ended September 30, 2025, net income totaled $10,005,000 which compares to net income of $7,536,000 for the comparable period of 2024, an increase of $2,469,000 or 32.7%. Basic earnings per share of $2.09 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compares to $1.57 for the 2024 comparable period. Annualized return on equity for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 12.52% and 10.31%, while annualized return on assets was 1.33% and 1.01%, respectively. Net interest income before the provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $25,140,000 compared to $21,324,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in an increase of $3,816,000, or 17.9%. Average interest earning assets increased $24,110,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to increases in the average balance of investments. Average loans decreased $12,068,000, while average investment securities increased $34,955,000. The tax effected net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was 3.60% compared to 3.09% for the same period last year. The yield on interest earning assets increased 16 basis points to 5.74%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 39 basis points to 2.67%. The provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2025 of $500,000 was driven by the change in economic factors during the quarter. The provision (release) for credit losses of ($200,000) for the 2024 period was due to changes in qualitative factors in the calculation related to inflation. Total non-interest income was $3,854,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, $99,000 more than the comparable period last year. The primary driver of the increase was an increase in brokerage and insurance commissions of $216,000. Total non-interest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $16,134,000 compared to $16,029,000 for the same period last year, which is an increase of $105,000, or 0.7%.
