(the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GCBC), the holding company for the Bank of Greene County and its subsidiary Greene County Commercial Bank, today reported net income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, which is the third quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

Highlights:
Donald Gibson, President & CEO stated: “We are proud to report another quarter of record performance, with all-time highs in net income, total assets, net loans and total deposits. These results are not achieved in isolation, they reflect the trust our customers place in us and the dedication of our team.
At our core, we remain a community bank. Every loan we make, every dollar we gather, and every relationship we build is rooted in the communities we serve. We are grateful to our customers, our communities, and employees for their continued support and commitment.
Our success is not defined by a single quarter, but by consistent performance over time. That consistency is driven by our people, our employee-owners and positions us to deliver long-term value for our shareholders while remaining true to our mission as a relationship-focused community bank.”
Total consolidated assets for the Company were $3.2 billion at March 31, 2026, primarily consisting of $1.7 billion of net loans and $1.2 billion of total securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity. Consolidated deposits totaled $2.8 billion at March 31, 2026, consisting of retail, business, municipal and private banking relationships.
Pre-provision net income was $31.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $24.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $7.6 million, or 31.6%. Pre-provision net income measures the Company’s net income not including the provision for credit losses. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure assists investors in comprehending the impact of the provision for credit losses on the Company’s reported results, offering an alternative view of the Company’s performance and the Company’s ability to generate income in excess of its provision for credit losses.
The Company strategically managed its balance sheet by focusing on higher-yielding loans and securities and lowering deposit rates to align with the Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate cuts. This resulted in a higher net interest margin for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025. The recent global conflicts, higher energy prices and shifting tariff policies have complicated the economic outlook. With shifting global alliances and market volatility our focus remains our commitment to building shareholder value while serving the financial needs of our communities. The Company continues to deliver strong performance and stability against an unpredictable geopolitical landscape.
