LINKBANCORP, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter 2025 and Full Year 2025 Financial Results and Declares Dividend

prnewswire.com

HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LINKBANCORP, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNKB) (the "Company"), the parent company of LINKBANK (the "Bank"), reported net income of $2.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to net income of $7.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Excluding expenses associated with the pending merger with Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp. ("Burke & Herbert") and other non-core expenses, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net income was $11.7 million 1 for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to $11.0 million 1 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $33.5 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, compared to $26.2 million, or $0.71 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 were adversely affected by increased provision expense primarily related to a specific reserve established for a single commercial credit (the "Commercial Relationship") with total exposure of $5.0 million, requiring a full impairment, with an after-tax effect of $4.0 million. The determination of this reserve resulted from concerns with the Commercial Relationship raised during the fourth quarter of 2025, leading to the identification of purported fraudulent activity in January 2026.

Additionally, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per share of common stock which is expected to be paid on March 16, 2026 to shareholders of record on February 27, 2026.

"Overall, we were pleased with the core performance reflected in our quarterly and annual results, despite the impact of the required provision for a single commercial lending relationship," said Andrew Samuel, Chief Executive Officer of LINKBANCORP. "Annual net income reached an all-time high on strong growth in net interest income, continued progress in fee income and continued discipline in operating expenses. Looking ahead to 2026, we are excited to build on our strong organic growth, deliver exceptional service to our clients, and prepare for a successful merger with Burke & Herbert to create value for our shareholders."

Income Statement

Net interest income before the provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $27.1 million compared to $26.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 and $25.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the significant growth in average earnings assets. Net interest margin was 3.74% for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 3.75% for the third quarter of 2025, and 3.85% for the fourth quarter of 2024. The spread on interest rates was stable quarter over quarter as the average loan yield decreased from 6.26% for the third quarter of 2025 to 6.22% for the fourth quarter of 2025, while the cost of funds decreased from 2.34% for the third quarter of 2025 to 2.32% for the fourth quarter of 2025. Interest income from purchase accounting accretion during the fourth quarter of 2025 was approximately $150 thousand less than that recognized in the third quarter of 2025 and $813 thousand less than the fourth quarter of 2024.

Noninterest income increased slightly quarter-over-quarter to $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2025. Year-over-year, noninterest income increased $326 thousand from $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $19.5 million compared to $18.2 million for the third quarter of 2025 and $18.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase resulted primarily from an increased incentive compensation accrual, which was driven by achievement of organic growth goals, as well as a $500 thousand impairment on assets included in other expense.

Income tax expense was $1.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting an effective tax rate of 26.1% compared to $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2025, reflecting an effective tax rate of 21.7% and $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting an effective tax rate of 21.9%.

Balance Sheet

Total assets were $3.07 billion at December 31, 2025 compared to $3.12 billion at September 30, 2025 and $2.88 billion at December 31, 2024. Deposits and net loans as of December 31, 2025 totaled $2.55 billion and $2.53 billion, respectively, compared to deposits and net loans of $2.67 billion and $2.43 billion, respectively at September 30, 2025 and $2.36 billion and $2.23 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2024. Deposits and net loans exclude recorded balances held for sale in the Branch Sale of $93.6 million and $91.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024, which are reflected within liabilities held for sale and assets held for sale.

Total loans at December 31, 2025 were $2.56 billion, compared to $2.46 billion at September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $99.8 million, with the majority of the growth in commercial loans. For the full year, total loans have increased $307.1 million 2 from December 31, 2024, excluding the impact of the Branch Sale, or 13.1% annualized. Total commercial loan commitments originated in the fourth quarter of 2025 were $199.4 million with funded balances of $132.7 million. The average commercial loan commitment originated during the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled approximately $1.1 million with an average outstanding funded balance of $750 thousand. Total deposits at December 31, 2025 were $2.55 billion compared to $2.67 billion at September 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $113.3 million or -4.3% annualized driven by seasonal outflows related primarily to professional services and commercial clients. For the full year, total deposits have increased $256.3 million 2 from December 31, 2024, or 10.9%, adjusting for the impact of the Branch Sale and changes in brokered deposits. Noninterest bearing deposits totaled $603.7 million at December 31, 2025, down from $640.1 million at September 30, 2025. Brokered deposits decreased $40.0 million to $35.0 million at December 31, 2025. Average deposits increased $57.4 million, or 2.3%, to $2.56 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to $2.50 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. This continued growth reflects our focus on developing deep relationships with our retail, professional services, and commercial clients to build a strong deposit franchise.

The Company continues to maintain strong on-balance sheet liquidity, as total cash, cash equivalents, and securities available for sale were $314.9 million at December 31, 2025 compared to $462.1 million at September 30, 2025 and $311.7 million at December 31, 2024. Available sources of liquidity remain stable, with total availability of sources of liquidity of $1.31 billion at December 31, 2025.

Shareholders' equity increased to $306.4 million at December 31, 2025 from $305.5 million at September 30, 2025. Book value per share increased to $8.18 at December 31, 2025 compared to $8.16 at September 30, 2025. Tangible book value per share increased to $6.20 1 at December 31, 2025 compared to $6.15 1 at September 30, 2025 and $5.36 1 at December 31, 2024, representing 15.7% growth year over year.

Asset Quality

The Company recorded a $6.6 million provision for credit losses during the fourth quarter of 2025, $5.0 million of which related to a specific reserve for the Commercial Relationship referenced above. As noted above, the impairment resulted from concerns with the Commercial Relationship raised during the fourth quarter of 2025, leading to the identification of purported fraudulent activity in January 2026. The Company is pursuing all available sources of recovery. Based on the Company's review of the circumstances of the purported fraudulent activity involving this borrower, the Company believes this incident is an isolated occurrence and not indicative of a broader increase in exposure to fraud-related losses in connection with its lending businesses. The remaining $1.6 million in provision recorded was driven by the strong loan growth experienced in the fourth quarter.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's non-performing assets decreased to $24.4 million, representing 0.79% of total assets, compared to $24.6 million, representing 0.79% of total assets at September 30, 2025, resulting from the successful sale of multiple properties from one credit relationship, offset by the addition of the Commercial Relationship. Loans 30-89 days past due at December 31, 2025 were $8.22 million, representing 0.32% of total loans compared to $4.73 million or 0.19% of total loans at September 30, 2025 and $2.89 million or 0.13% of total loans at December 31, 2024. The increase was driven entirely by the inclusion of the Commercial Relationship, without which loans 30-89 days past due at December 31, 2025 would have decreased to $3.24 million.

The allowance for credit losses for loans was $31.7 million, or 1.24% of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2025, compared to $25.3 million, or 1.03% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2025. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses for loans to nonperforming assets was 129.85% at December 31, 2025, compared to 102.90% at September 30, 2025. The increase in the allowance for credit losses was primarily due to the $5.0 million specific reserve for the Commercial Relationship.

The Company recorded $57 thousand in net recoveries during the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $300 thousand in net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2025.

Capital

The Bank's regulatory capital ratios were well in excess of regulatory minimums to be considered "well capitalized" as of December 31, 2025. The Bank's Total Capital Ratio and Tier 1 Capital Ratio were 12.07% and 10.94% respectively, at December 31, 2025, compared to 12.31% and 11.39%, respectively, at September 30, 2025 and 11.55% and 10.74%, respectively, at December 31, 2024. The Company's ratio of Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets was 7.75% 1 at December 31, 2025 compared to 7.56% 1 at September 30, 2025 and 7.16% 1 at December 31, 2024.

(1) - These capital ratios have been calculated using bank-level capital

(2) - This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

(3) - The efficiency ratio, as adjusted represents noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, excluding gains or losses from securities sales and merger related expenses. This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

(4) - We calculate tangible common equity as total shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangibles, and we calculate tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and other intangibles. This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

(5) - We calculate tangible book value per common share as total shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangibles, divided by the outstanding number of shares of our common stock at the end of the relevant period. Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure, and, as we calculate tangible book value per common share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per common share. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this release.

(6) - Charge offs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 do not include the impact of a settlement of a purchase credit deteriorated loan ("PCD") that resulted in a net decrease to the allowance of $2.0 million, which was covered by a specific reserve established on this PCD loan at the time of acquisition.

Appendix A – Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This document contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company's performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specified items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the Company's financial condition and results. Non-GAAP measures are not formally defined under GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by us. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in comparing the financial condition and results of operations of financial institutions due to the industry prevalence of such non-GAAP measures. See the tables below for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
