Third Quarter 2025 Financial Commentary
Transportation Invoice and Dollar Volumes – Transportation invoice volumes of 8.9 million decreased 3.0% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. Transportation dollar volumes of $9.3 billion increased 2.0% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. The average dollars per invoice were $1,044 in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $1,060 in the second quarter of 2025 and $993 in the third quarter of 2024. Volumes remain lower than prior periods primarily due to the ongoing freight recession and the impact of tariffs. Dollars per invoice increased as compared to the the third quarter of 2024 due to a slight increase in overall freight rates as described in the Cass Freight Index®.
Facility Expense Invoice and Dollar Volumes – Facility expense invoice volumes of 4.1 million decreased 2.2% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. Facility expense dollar volumes totaled $6.2 billion, an increase of 13.9% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase in dollar volumes was due to a combination of higher energy usage and prices, in addition to onboarding new clients with high dollar volumes as compared to the related transaction count.
Processing Fees – Processing fees decreased $31,000, or 0.2% over the same period in the prior year reflecting lower transportation and facility transaction volumes.
Financial Fees – Financial fees, earned on a transactional level basis for invoice payment services when making customer payments, decreased $601,000, or 5.5%. The decrease in financial fees was primarily due to a decrease in average payments in advance of funding of 13.4% in addition to changes in the manner whereby facility vendors receive payments.
Net Interest Income – Net interest income increased $3.4 million, or 19.3%. The increase in net interest income was attributable to the net interest margin improving to 3.87% as compared to 3.55% in the same period last year, in addition to an increase in average interest-earning assets of $187.6 million, or 9.4%.
The Company’s net interest margin improvement was driven by increases in the average yield on loans and investment securities of 26 and 48 basis points, respectively, combined with a decrease in the average cost of total deposits of 36 basis points. The increase in loan yield was driven by the continued maturing and re-pricing of existing fixed rate loans to current market interest rates. The increase in the investment securities yield was driven by the repositioning of the portfolio at the end of the second quarter as well as purchases of investments at current market rates during the third quarter. The decline in the cost of total deposits was driven by the reduction in short-term interest rates.
Provision for Credit Losses - The Company recorded a release of credit losses of $193,000 during the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $140,000 in the third quarter of 2024. The release of credit losses for the third quarter of 2025 was largely driven by the decrease in total loans of $28.7 million, or 2.6%, as compared to June 30, 2025.
Personnel Expenses - Personnel expenses increased $1.1 million, or 4.1% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. Salaries and commissions decreased $425,000, or 2.1%, as a result of a decrease in average full-time equivalent employees (“FTEs”) of 6.9% due to strategic investments in various technology initiatives. Share-based compensation and employee profit sharing increased $155,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, due to the improvement in earnings. Other benefits increased $491,000, or 11.4%, due to higher health insurance costs, partially offset by the decrease in average FTEs.
Equipment Expense - Equipment expense increased $455,000 as compared to the third quarter of 2024 primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense on software related to recently completed technology initiatives.
Loans - When compared to June 30, 2025, loans decreased $28.7 million, or 2.6%. The Company is being highly selective regarding loan growth in light of current economic conditions and the decrease in average deposits.
Payments in Advance of Funding – Average payments in advance of funding decreased $27.3 million, or 13.4%, as compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to the continued consolidation of freight carriers, partially offset by a 2.0% increase in transportation dollar volumes.
Deposits – Average deposits decreased $17.9 million, or 1.7%, when compared to the third quarter of 2024. The Company has experienced deposit attrition due to a decrease in the overall level of some larger commercial deposits due to client funding needs for acquisitions and other purposes.
Accounts and Drafts Payable - Average accounts and drafts payable increased $196.5 million, or 19.4%, as compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase in these balances, which are non-interest bearing, are primarily reflective of the increase in facility and transportation dollar volumes of 13.9% and 2.0%, respectively. The significant increase in facility dollar volumes was driven by the onboarding of new clients with high dollar volumes in proportion to transaction volumes, rising energy prices, and higher than normal temperatures driving energy usage.
Shareholders’ Equity - Total shareholders’ equity increased $2.6 million since June 30, 2025 as a result of net income of $9.1 million and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $3.2 million primarily related to the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, partially offset by the repurchase of Company stock of $6.7 million and dividends of $4.1 million.
Dividend - On October 21, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend of $0.01 to $0.32 per share beginning with the dividend payable on December 15, 2025 to shareholders of record on December 5, 2025.
Asset Quality - Non-performing loans totaled $7.1 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $3.7 million as compared to June 30, 2025. The Company is actively working to reduce these loan balances and does not believe there is more than nominal loss exposure in these loans based on collateral position.

On April 7, 2025, the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement providing for the sale of its Telecom Expense Management & Managed Mobility Services (“TEM”) business to Asignet USA Inc. The sale closed on June 30, 2025. The Company has applied discontinued operations accounting in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 205-20, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations,” to the assets and liabilities being sold related to the Company's TEM Business Unit as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, as applicable. All financial information in this earnings release is reported on a continuing operations basis, unless otherwise noted.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain of the financial measures and ratios the Company presents, including “adjusted net income from continuing operations,” and “adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations,” are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company refers to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” The Company considers the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding certain revenue and expense items that the Company believes are not indicative of its primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. The Company believes that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of the Company’s performance. The non-GAAP financial measures the Company presents may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company’s peers or other companies. The Company compensates for these differences by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever the Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
Forward Looking Information
All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this release, including without limitation the Company’s future prospects and performance, the business strategy and the plans and objectives of the Company's management for future operations, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this release, words such as “estimate,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “likely,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “intend,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projected,” and variations of these terms and similar expressions. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Actual results or business conditions may differ materially from those projected or suggested in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors including, but not limited to, those described below and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date of this release. Unless required by law, the Company does not undertake to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

www.cassinfo.com | ©2025 Cass Information Systems | Net Interest Income NET INTEREST INCOME AVERAGE INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS NET INTEREST MARGIN The net interest margin (NIM) improved 32 basis points from Q3 2024 to 3.87% largely driven by increases in the average yield on loans and investment securities of 26 and 48 basis points, respectively, combined with a decline in the average cost of total deposits of 36 basis points. The Company generally benefits from a higher interest rate environment due to a large percentage of its funding sources being non-interest bearing. $17.6M $17.8M $19.3M $19.5M $21.0M Q3 '24 Q4 '24 Q1 '25 Q2 '25 Q3 '25 $2.00B $2.02B $2.10B $2.09B $2.19B Q3 '24 Q4 '24 Q1 '25 Q2 '25 Q3 '25 3.55% 3.55% 3.75% 3.78% 3.87% Q3 '24 Q4 '24 Q1 '25 Q2 '25 Q3 '25 31
www.cassinfo.com | ©2025 Cass Information Systems | Net Interest Income (Continued) The Company’s net interest margin has historically trended above the average 5-year UST. With the rise in long- term bond yields over the last 3-4 years, the yields on many of the Company’s fixed rate loans and investment securities are below current market interest rates. If mid and longer-term bond yields remain at or close to current levels, as the Company’s interest-earning assets mature and re-price to current market rates over the coming quarters and years, the Company’s NIM should benefit, thereby increasing net interest income. 32

www.cassinfo.com | ©2025 Cass Information Systems | Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Certain of the financial measures and ratios the Company presents, including “adjusted net income from continuing operations,” and “adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations,” are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company refers to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” The Company considers the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that the Company believes are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. The Company believes that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of the Company’s performance. The non-GAAP financial measures the Company presents may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company’s peers or other companies. The Company compensates for these differences by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever the Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables. 37
