Management Commentary
Tom Wayne, Chief Executive Officer, reported, “Earnings in the second quarter of 2025 were up significantly from both the prior quarter and the second quarter of 2024. It is fitting that we achieved such strong results in our 25th year as a community bank. This was primarily due to strong net interest income growth of 7.6% over the prior quarter and 16.0% over the comparable quarter in 2024, coupled with a notable increase in noninterest income, up 64.6% from the prior quarter and 63.7% from the second quarter of 2024. We achieved robust loan growth, with loans receivable increasing 8.8% from the comparable quarter end in 2024, funded by a combination of increased deposits and strategic borrowings. Our efficiency ratio improved to 59.1% as an increase in total income outpaced the rise in noninterest expenses. While nonperforming assets to total assets saw an increase to 0.73% from 0.67% from the prior quarter, our capital and liquidity levels remain solid. Oak Ridge continues to focus on maintaining and developing full client relationships, including long-term core deposit and lending solutions and other products and services that meet our customers� financial objectives. We are incredibly proud of our entire team and appreciate their efforts in serving our clients and managing the Bank in a safe and sound manner.�

Dividend Announcement
A quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share of common stock is payable on September 3, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 19, 2025. “We are pleased to pay another quarterly cash dividend to our stockholders,� said Mr. Wayne. “Paying stockholders a portion of our earnings reflects our continuing commitment to enhance stockholder value.�

Financial Review

Net Interest Income
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net interest income was $6.8 million, up from $5.8 million in the second quarter of 2024. The annualized net interest margin was 4.16%, an increase of 35 basis points from 3.81% in the second quarter of 2024, due to increases in yields on loans and decreases in costs on interest-bearing deposits.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net interest income was $13.1 million, up from $11.5 million for the same period in 2024. The annualized net interest margin was 6.06%, up 24 basis points from 5.82% in the same period in 2024, due to increases in yields on loans and decreases in costs on interest-bearing deposits.

Provision for Credit Losses
The Bank recorded a provision for credit losses of $402,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $322,000 in the second quarter of 2024. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.10% at June 30, 2025, up from 1.05% at December 31, 2024. Nonperforming assets represented 0.73% of total assets at June 30, 2025, an increase from 0.53% at December 31, 2024. The bank is actively engaged in the process of seeking payment on the guaranteed portion of defaulted Small Business Administration (SBA) loans. Of the eight SBA loans with an outstanding balance of $4.5 million that were in nonaccrual status at June 30, 2025, the bank has initiated the Guaranty Purchase Process for seven of these loans, which have an outstanding balance of $4.4 million. This process involves legal action to obtain payment from the SBA on the guaranteed portion of the loans.

Noninterest Income
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, noninterest income totaled $1.2 million, compared to $763,000 for the second quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily driven by a $329,000 gain on the sale of SBA loans, with no comparable gain on sales in the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, there was a $50,000 increase in mortgage banking income and a $25,000 increase in service charges on deposits. Other service charges and fees also increased by $40,000.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, noninterest income was $2.0 million, up from $1.6 million in the same period in 2024. This was mainly due to gains of $329,000 on the sale of SBA loans and $42,000 on the sale of investment securities, with no comparable gain on sales in the first six months of 2024. Mortgage banking income also increased by $100,000, and service charges on deposits increased by $50,000.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase from $4.6 million in the comparable period in 2024. This was primarily due to a $100,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $54,000 increase in equipment expense, a $50,000 increase in data and items processing, and a $112,000 increase in other expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $80,000 decrease in occupancy expense.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, noninterest expense totaled $9.4 million, an increase of $423,000 from $9.0 million in the comparable period in 2024. The main causes of this increase were a $269,000 increase in other expenses, a $200,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, and a $100,000 increase in data and items processing. This was partially offset by a $150,000 decrease in occupancy expense.
