MENDOTA, Ill., April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Tri-County Financial Group, Inc. (The Company) (OTCQX: TYFG) today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2025. Net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.6 million ($1.07 per share), compared to $2.7 million ($1.10 per share) during the first quarter of 2024. The net interest margin was 3.31% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 2.93% for the first quarter of 2024. Net interest income was $11.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $10.5 million in the same period of 2024, or a 10% increase. Non-interest income was $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.6 million, or 20%, compared to $3.0 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase is attributed mostly to improved earnings in First State Mortgage, which is performing approximately $0.5 million better through three months than March 31, 2024. Non-interest expense was $11.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $11.2 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.9%. Our investment portfolio consists entirely of debt securities classified as available-for-sale; therefore, unrealized gains and losses are fully reported on our balance sheet. None of our securities are classified as held-to-maturity. The investment portfolio decreased $21.8 million or 13% year over year and totaled $147.4 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $169.1 million at March 31, 2024. The reduction of the securities portfolio in 2025 helped to reduce borrowings. Total loans decreased $12.3 million, or 1%, to $1.278 billion at March 31, 2025, from $1.291 billion at March 31, 2024. Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans were 0.40% as of March 31, 2025, compared to 0.63% at March 31, 2024. The provision for credit loss had a provision of $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, which is attributed to economic conditions moderating and the unfunded commitments increasing approximately $20 million from the prior quarter. The allowance for credit loss ended at $14.5 million at March 31, 2025 and represented 1.14% of gross loans. Asset quality continues to remain solid and charge offs remain low. Total deposits increased $18.2 million, or 1%, year-over-year. Approximately $38 million and $87.5 million consisted of brokered deposits at March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances were $32.9 million and $74.5 million at March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company's capital levels remain solid as of March 31, 2025, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.79%. On March 18, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a regular dividend of $0.25 per share, payable April 10, 2025, to shareholders of record on March 31, 2025. In announcing the results, Tri-County Financial Group, Inc.
