Mifflinburg Bancorp, Inc., Reports First Quarter 2025 Earnings

Mifflinburg, PA – Mifflinburg Bancorp, Inc. (“Company”) (OTC Pink: MIFF), parent company of Mifflinburg Bank and Trust Company (“Bank”), has released its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of 2025.

Financial Results

Net income, as reported under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025 was $1,806,000 compared to $1,356,000 for the same period in 2024, a 33.2% increase. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarters-ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $0.97 and $0.73, respectively. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.20% and 12.66% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to 0.97% and 9.88% for the same period of 2024.

Net interest income for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025 was $4.7 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2024, a 23.8% increase. The significant increase in net interest income is primarily driven by loan growth of 3.0% quarter-to-date and by market interest rates starting to decline thus slowing the increase in cost of funds. Yield on earning assets increased 55 basis points, to 5.24% for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025 compared to the quarter-ended March 31, 2024, while the cost of funds increased 14 basis points, to 2.35%, as compared to the same time period in 2024. The net interest margin increased from 2.87% for the quarter-ended March 31, 2024 to 3.31% for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025.

The Bank recorded a provision for credit losses of $70,000 for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025. This is offset by a $63,000 reduction in the unfunded commitment reserve. The Bank did not record a provision for credit losses for the quarter-ended March 31, 2024.

Non-interest income for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025 was $585,000 compared to $567,000 for the same period in 2024, a 3.2% increase. The increase in non-interest income is primarily the result of a $52,000 gain on sale of premises in the first quarter of 2025.

Non-interest expense for the quarter-ended March 31, 2025 was $3.1 million compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 2024, a 10.1% increase. The increase in non-interest expense is primarily the result of merger expenses totaling $163,000 that was recorded in the first quarter of 2025.

An income tax provision of $419,000 was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to an income tax provision of $231,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, an 81.4% increase. The increase in the tax provision is primarily the result of non-deductible merger expenses and by tax-exempt interest income representing a smaller percentage of total interest income.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased to $607.9 million as of March 31, 2025 from $596.7 million as of December 31, 2024, an increase of 1.9%. Cash and cash equivalents increased $3.8 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. Net loans increased by $13.0 million, or 3.0%, offset by securities available for sale decreasing $5.2 million and by interest-bearing time deposits decreasing $1.0 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. Total deposits increased $16.9 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025, and Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $9.0 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025.
