Michael Price, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our focus on organic growth and strategic acquisitions continues to position First Commonwealth for sustained success, delivering value to our shareholders and communities.” Earnings GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $33.4 million, or $0.32 per share, compared to $32.7 million, or $0.32 per share in the first quarter of 2025, and $37.1 million, or $0.36 per share for the second quarter of 2024.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income (FTE) of $106.6 million increased $10.7 million from the previous quarter and increased $11.3 million from the prior year quarter. The increase from the previous quarter was primarily due to a 21 basis point expansion in the net interest margin and a $411.1 million increase in interest earning assets. The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 was 3.83%, an increase of 21 basis points from the previous quarter and an increase of 26 basis points from the second quarter of 2024. The increase from the previous quarter was due primarily to a 17 basis point increase in the yield on loans and a nine basis point increase in the yield on securities. The net interest margin benefitted further by an eight basis point decrease in the cost of deposits. The total cost of funds was 2.02% in the second quarter of 2025, which represents a decrease of five basis points from the previous quarter. Total average deposits (excluding acquired deposits) grew $91.6 million, or 3.8% annualized, in the second quarter of 2025 as compared to the previous quarter.

Asset Quality Provision (excluding acquisition Day-1 non-PCD provision for CenterGroup) expense in the second quarter of 2025 totaled $8.9 million as compared to $5.7 million in the previous quarter. The increase in the provision expense from the previous quarter was primarily the result of a $2.6 million increase in specific reserves. The increase in specific reserves was driven by a commercial floorplan relationship that was moved to nonaccrual status during the quarter. The commercial dealer floorplan portfolio totaled $152.7 million as of June 30, 2025. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of end-of-period loans in the second quarter of 2025 was 1.39% as compared to 1.32% in the previous quarter. At June 30, 2025, nonperforming loans totaled $99.5 million, an increase of $40.1 million from the previous quarter. The increase in nonperforming loans was primarily due to the aforementioned dealer floorplan relationship, which was moved into nonaccrual status and $8.4 million of acquired nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans represented 1.04% of total loans for the period ended June 30, 2025 as compared to 0.65% and 0.64% for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. During the second quarter of 2025, net charge-offs were $2.8 million as compared to $3.1 million in the previous quarter and $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans (annualized) were 0.12%, 0.14% and 0.20% for the periods ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense Noninterest income (excluding securities gains and losses) totaled $24.7 million for the second quarter of 2025, as compared to $22.5 million for the first quarter of 2025 and $25.2 million for the second quarter of 2024. The $2.3 million increase from the previous quarter was primarily due to a $0.4 million increase in other income which includes a $0.4 million increase in gain on sale of Small Business Administration (SBA) loans and a $0.4 million gain on the sale of property held as Other Real Estate Owned (OREO), a $0.4 million increase in gain on sale of mortgage loans, a $0.4 million increase in Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) income, and a $0.2 million increase in other revenue due to limited partnership gains, partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in swap fee income. There were no material security gains during the quarter. Noninterest expense (excluding merger-related expense) of $72.3 million increased $1.2 million from the previous quarter. The increase from the previous quarter was driven by a $1.0 million increase in other operating expenses primarily driven by higher loan expenses related to higher loan volume, a $0.4 million increase in furniture and equipment and a $0.3 million increase in other professional fees. Partially offsetting these increases was a $0.8 million decrease in occupancy expense. The core efficiency ratio was 54.1% during the second quarter of 2025 as compared to 59.1% in the previous quarter and 53.6% in the second quarter of 2024.
