Exhibit 99.1
FIRST BUSINESS BANK REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2025 NET INCOME OF $14.2 million
-- Continued loan and deposit growth and record fee income drive robust earnings --
MADISON, Wis., October 30, 2025 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- First Business Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”, the “Bank”, or “First Business Bank”) (Nasdaq:FBIZ) reported quarterly net income available to common shareholders of $14.2 million, or earnings per share ("EPS") of $1.70. This compares to net income available to common shareholders of $11.2 million, or $1.35 per share, in the second quarter of 2025 and $10.3 million, or $1.24 per share, in the third quarter of 2024.
“First Business Bank’s robust balance sheet growth and operating leverage drove outstanding financial performance during the quarter,” said Corey Chambas, Chief Executive Officer. “We continued to execute our relationship-based growth strategy, producing record pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, 10% loan growth, 9% core deposit growth, and a strong and stable net interest margin. We also experienced improved asset quality, including an 18% reduction in non-performing assets. This led to a 13% year-to-date increase in top-line revenue and drove exceptional growth in shareholder value, with tangible book value expanding 16% from the prior year.”

Third Quarter 2025 Compared to Second Quarter 2025
Net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 3.3%, to $34.9 million.
The Bank reported provision for credit losses of $1.4 million compared to $2.7 million in the linked quarter. The current quarter provision reflects net chargeoffs, loan growth, and an increase in unfunded commitments partially offset by improvement in the economic outlook in our model forecast and a decrease in general reserve qualitative factors.
Non-interest income increased $2.4 million, or 32.9%, to $9.6 million.
Non-interest expense increased $732,000, or 2.9%, to $25.7 million, while operating expense increased $417,000, or 1.7%, to $25.4 million.
3
Income tax expense increased $1.0 million to $3.0 million. The effective tax rate was 17.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 14.6% for the linked quarter. The increase in tax expense reflects an increase in pre-tax income and annual return to provision adjustments including updating tax credit partnership estimates. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 16.3%. The Company expects to report an effective tax rate between 16% and 18% for 2025.
Total period-end loans and leases receivable increased $84.6 million, or 10.4% annualized, to $3.337 billion. The average rate earned on average loans and leases receivable was 7.10%, up 11 basis points from 6.99% in the prior quarter. Excluding fees in lieu of interest, the average rate earned on average loans and leases receivable was 6.84%, up six basis points from 6.78% in the prior quarter.
Total period-end core deposits increased $59.0 million, or 9.3% annualized, to $2.592 billion. The average rate paid was 2.89%, up 14 basis points from 2.75% in the prior quarter primarily due to an increase in higher-cost certificates of deposit.
Period-end wholesale funding, including FHLB advances and brokered deposits, decreased $40.6 million, or 4.1%, to $952.9 million. Consistent with the Bank’s long-held philosophy to minimize exposure to interest rate risk, management will continue to utilize the most efficient and cost-effective source of wholesale funds to match-fund fixed-rate loans, as necessary.
Non-performing assets decreased $5.2 million to $23.5 million, or 0.58% of total assets, improving from 0.72% in the prior quarter. The decrease reflects pay downs on non-accrual C&I loans and charge-offs of previously reserved equipment finance loans, partially offset by new non-accrual equipment finance loans. We continue to expect full repayment of the previously disclosed Asset-Based Lending ("ABL") loan that defaulted during the second quarter of 2023. The liquidation process under Chapter 7 bankruptcy and related litigation has delayed final resolution. The current balance of this loan is $6.1 million. Excluding this ABL loan, non-performing assets totaled $17.4 million, or 0.43% of total assets in the current quarter and $22.6 million, or 0.56% of total assets in the linked quarter.
The allowance for credit losses, including the unfunded credit commitments reserve, increased $172,000, or 0.5%, primarily due to increases in general reserves driven by loan growth and an increase in unfunded commitments, partially offset by a decrease in specific reserve requirements, an improvement in the economic outlook in our model forecast, and improvement in qualitative factors. The allowance for credit losses, including unfunded credit commitment reserves, as a percent of total gross loans and leases was 1.15% compared to 1.18% in the prior quarter.

Third Quarter 2025 Compared to Third Quarter 2024
Net interest income increased $3.9 million, or 12.5%, to $34.9 million.
The Company reported provision for credit losses of $1.4 million, compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. See the Provision for Credit Loss breakdown table below for more detail.
Non-interest income increased $2.6 million, or 36.5%, to $9.6 million.
5
Non-interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 11.2%, to $25.7 million. Operating expense increased $2.8 million, or 12.4%, to $25.4 million.
Total period-end loans and leases receivable increased $286.4 million, or 9.4%, to $3.337 billion.
Total period-end core deposits grew $209.4 million, or 8.8%, to $2.592 billion. The average rate paid decreased 45 basis points to 2.89%, reflecting a decrease in short-term market rates. Total average core deposits grew $222.0 million, or 9.3%, to $2.597 billion.
Period-end wholesale funding increased $82.5 million, or 28.0%, to $952.9 million.
Non-performing assets increased to $23.5 million, or 0.58% of total assets, compared to $19.4 million, or 0.52% of total assets, primarily driven by new non-accrual loans in the C&I transportation and logistics portfolio partially offset lower non-accrual equipment finance loans. Excluding the ABL loan described above for which we expect full repayment, non-performing assets totaled $17.4 million, or 0.43% of total assets and $13.0 million, or 0.35% of total assets in the prior year quarter.
The allowance for credit losses, including unfunded commitment reserves, increased $2.9 million to $38.4 million primarily due to higher general reserves as a result of loan growth and quantitative factors partially offset by lower specific reserves. The allowance for credit losses as a percent of total gross loans and leases was 1.15%, compared with 1.16% in the prior year.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
Certain financial information provided in this release is determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (United States) (“GAAP”). Although the Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of its business, these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies.
TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE
“Tangible book value per share” is a non-GAAP measure representing tangible common equity divided by total common shares outstanding. “Tangible common equity” itself is a non-GAAP measure representing common stockholders’ equity reduced by intangible assets, if any. The Company’s management believes that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in period-to-period changes in book value per common share exclusive of changes in intangible assets. The information provided below reconciles tangible book value per share and tangible common equity to their most comparable GAAP measures.

TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY TO TANGIBLE ASSETS
“Tangible common equity to tangible assets” (“TCE”) is defined as the ratio of common stockholders’ equity reduced by intangible assets, if any, divided by total assets reduced by intangible assets, if any. Adjusted TCE ratio is defined as TCE adjusted for net fair value adjustments of financial assets and liabilities. For more information on fair value adjustments please refer to Note 19 - Fair Value Disclosures in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s management believes that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the relative changes from period to period in common equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets. The information below reconciles tangible common equity and tangible assets to their most comparable GAAP measures.

EFFICIENCY RATIO & PRE-TAX, PRE-PROVISION ADJUSTED EARNINGS
“Efficiency ratio” is a non-GAAP measure representing non-interest expense excluding the effects of the SBA recourse provision, impairment of tax credit investments, losses or gains on repossessed assets, amortization of other intangible assets and other discrete items, if any, divided by operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus non-interest income less realized gains or losses on securities, if any. “Pre-tax, pre-provision adjusted earnings” is defined as operating revenue less operating expense. In the judgment of the Company’s management, the adjustments made to non-interest expense and non-interest income allow investors and analysts to better assess the Company’s operating expenses in relation to its core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete items. The information provided below reconciles the efficiency ratio and pre-tax, pre-provision adjusted earnings to its most comparable GAAP measure.

ADJUSTED NET INTEREST MARGIN
16
“Adjusted Net Interest Margin” is a non-GAAP measure representing net interest income excluding the fees in lieu of interest and other recurring, but volatile, components of net interest margin divided by average interest-earning assets less other recurring, but volatile, components of average interest-earning assets. Fees in lieu of interest are defined as prepayment fees, asset-based loan fees, non-accrual interest, and loan fee amortization. In the judgment of the Company’s management, the adjustments made to net interest income allow investors and analysts to better assess the Company’s net interest income in relation to its core client-facing loan and deposit rate changes by removing the volatility that is associated with these recurring but volatile components. The information provided below reconciles the net interest margin to its most comparable GAAP measure.
