NEWS RELEASE
TO BUSINESS EDITOR:
PEOPLES FINANCIAL SERVICES CORP.
Reports Unaudited First Quarter 2026 Earnings
Moosic, PA, April 30, 2026/PRNEWSWIRE/ – Peoples Financial Services Corp. (“Peoples” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PFIS), the bank holding company for Peoples Security Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results at and for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Peoples reported net income of $14.7 million, or $1.47 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net income of $15.0 million, or $1.49 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Return on average assets (“ROAA”) and return on average equity (“ROAE”) on an annualized basis for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was 1.15% and 11.26% compared to 1.22% and 12.70% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The $0.3 million reduction in net income comparing the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was primarily due to an increase in the provision for credit losses due to strong loan growth, coupled with an increase in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by increases in net interest income and non-interest income.
“We delivered a stable first quarter despite a more challenging operating environment,” stated Gerard Champi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Peoples. The slight reduction in net income reflects our continued commitment to responsible credit management and investment in our people and infrastructure. At the same time, strong performance in net interest income and non-interest income underscores the resilience of our franchise. With ROAA and ROAE remaining healthy, we are well-positioned to build momentum throughout the year and continue creating value for our shareholders and communities. As we move through 2026, we are committed to disciplined expense management, thoughtful credit oversight, and continued investment in the capabilities that support sustainable growth.” concluded Champi.
In addition to evaluating its results of operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Peoples routinely supplements its evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as tangible stockholders’ equity and core net income, and tax-equivalent net interest income and related ratios, among others. The reported results included in this release contain items, which Peoples considers non-core, namely net gains and losses on the sale of available for sale (“AFS”) investment securities and acquisition-related expenses. Peoples believes the reported non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding its operating performance and trends. Where non-GAAP disclosures are used in this press release, a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP measure is provided in the accompanying tables. The non-GAAP financial measures Peoples uses may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures of other financial institutions and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP.

First Quarter 2026 Results – Comparison to First Quarter 2025
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $3.4 million to $42.9 million from $39.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. On a FTE basis, net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased $3.4 million to $43.7 million from $40.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in FTE net interest income was due to a $2.4 million increase in tax-equivalent interest income, a non-GAAP measure1, coupled with a $1.0 million decrease in interest expense. The Company’s net interest spread widened 18 basis points to 3.10 % for the first quarter of 2026 from 2.92 % for the same quarter of 2025. Additionally, comparing the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, the Company’s FTE net interest margin widened 17 basis points to 3.67% from 3.50 %, respectively.
The $2.4 million increase in FTE interest income was largely due to an increase in the volume of earning assets and increases to FTE yields on taxable investment securities. Total average earning assets increased $168.1 million comparing first quarters of 2026 and 2025, due primarily to increases in average taxable loans, tax-exempt investments and federal funds sold, partially offset by a reduction in average taxable investments and tax-exempt loans. Overall average loans, net, increased $139.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the prior year three-month period ended March 31, 2025, as an increase in average taxable loans of $161.5 million was partially offset by a reduction in average tax-exempt loans of $21.8 million. Average investments totaled $611.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, and $643.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $32.0 million. Average federal funds sold increased $62.1 million to $88.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $26.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The FTE yield on earning assets increased 1 basis point to 5.51% for the first quarter of 2026 from 5.50% for the comparable quarter of 2025. The yield on taxable loans decreased 13 basis points to 5.92% from 6.05% comparing the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively, which primarily reflected a 75-basis point reduction in the prime rate during the second half of 2025. Additionally, accretion

associated with purchase accounting fair value discounts on purchased loans was $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $1.0 million as compared to $4.1 million for the same period of 2025. Remaining net discounts on purchased loans as of March 31, 2026 totaled $39.5 million. The FTE yield on the total investment securities portfolio increased 85 basis points to 3.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from 2.95% for the same three months of 2025. The increase in yield was predominantly due to ongoing strategic portfolio repositioning as new purchases were added at yields higher than existing portfolio yields.
The $1.0 million decrease in interest expense, comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, was due primarily to decreases in average deposit rates and a reduction in average volumes of higher-costing time deposits, specifically, brokered deposits, partially offset by increases in average volumes on non-maturity deposits and borrowed funds. The average rate paid for interest-bearing deposits decreased 30 basis points to 2.16% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 2.46% from the same period of 2025 which largely reflected a reduction in overall market rates. Average interest-bearing deposits decreased $34.5 million to $3.4 billion, or 78.5% of total average deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $3.4 billion, or 79.7% of average total deposits, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Average brokered deposits decreased $127.5 million to $121.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $248.5 million for the comparable three-month period of 2025. Average noninterest bearing deposits increased $54.6 million to $929.7 million, or 21.5% of total average deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $875.1 million, or 20.3% of total average deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Average total borrowings increased $105.5 million to $264.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $159.0 million for the same period of 2025, which was primarily due to a combination of increases in long-term borrowings and the new issuance of subordinated debt, which occurred in the second quarter of 2025. Additionally, the Company’s cost of borrowings increased 49 basis points to 5.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 5.18% for the same three months of 2025. The increase in average long-term debt was due primarily to term advances through the FHLB of Pittsburgh’s community lending program as the Company shifted its wholesale funding from brokered CDs to FHLB advances with more favorable rates.
Short-term borrowings averaged $39.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, at an average cost of 3.85% compared to $20.2 million at an average cost of 4.52% for the comparable three-month period in 2025. Long-term debt, which includes term borrowings from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, averaged $134.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, at an average cost of 4.25% compared to $97.8 million at an average cost of 4.88% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. In June 2025, the Company called and redeemed $33.0 million of its subordinated notes due in June 2030 that repriced to 9.08% and issued $85.0 million in fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due June 2035 at an initial fixed rate through June 2030 of 7.75%. Subordinated debt, net of debt issuance costs, averaged $83.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, at an average cost of 8.52% compared to $33.0 million at an average cost of 5.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The average cost of subordinated debt for the three months ended March 31, 2026 included the impact from amortization of debt issuance costs.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the provision for credit losses was $1.4 million, an increase of $1.2 million from the $0.2 million recorded for the same three months of 2025. The increase was primarily due to the impact of significant loan growth during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, partially offset by decreases in qualitative factor adjustments primarily related to seasoning of the commercial equipment financing portfolio.
Noninterest income was $6.9 million and $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to increases in interest rate swap income, net gains on equity securities and mortgage banking income. Interest rate swap income increased to $0.6 million from a negligible amount in the year ago quarter due to increased loan transaction volume. Net gains on equity investments securities were $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.4 million compared to $0.1 million for the same quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting an increase in the market value of the Company’s holding of common stock of publicly traded bank holding companies. Mortgage banking income, which includes gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans and commission income received on brokered mortgages, increased $0.1 million comparing the first quarters of 2026 and 2025 due primarily to an initiative to grow this line of business. Additionally, non-interest income for the first quarter of 2026 included a $0.5 million gain on the sale of a portion the Company’s AFS mortgage-backed securities portfolio as part of an ongoing strategy, to restructure the portfolio with higher-yielding securities. Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2025 included a $0.7 million gain on the sale of the Company’s former corporate headquarters in Scranton, PA.

Noninterest expense increased $2.5 million to $29.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $27.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which primarily reflected increases in salaries and employee benefits expense, occupancy and equipment expenses, and other expenses. Salaries and employee benefits expense was $14.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $13.5 million for the same three months in 2025. The $1.0 million increase resulted primarily from annual merit increases and higher health insurance costs. Net occupancy and equipment expense was $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $1.1 million from $6.6 million for the same quarter of 2025. The increase was largely caused by higher maintenance costs due to elevated snowplowing costs and increases in data processing expenses. Other expenses increased $1.0 million to $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in other expenses primarily reflected increases in corporate business development and bank shares tax expense.
Income tax expense was $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate was 20.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 17.8% in the prior year’s same quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate was largely due to an increase in amortization associated with the Company’s low income housing tax credits investments, coupled with an increase in the provision for state income taxes.
BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
At March 31, 2026, total assets, loans, and deposits were $5.4 billion, $4.2 billion, and $4.4 billion, respectively.
Total loans increased $123.3 million to $4.2 billion at March 31, 2026, as compared to $4.1 billion at December 31, 2025. Strong demand in all markets for commercial loans, commercial and residential real estate loans, and municipal loans were partially offset by reductions to equipment financing, consumer and indirect auto loans.
Total investments were $542.9 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $587.2 million at December 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, available for sale securities totaled $469.3 million, a decrease of $43.3 million from $512.6 million at December 31, 2025. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company sold $31.9 million of its U.S. government agency and sponsored agency mortgage backed securities in a partial repositioning of its available for sale securities portfolio. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $0.5 million. Held to maturity (“HTM”) securities totaled $70.6 million at March 31, 2026, a decrease of $1.4 million from $72.0 million at December 31, 2025. The unrealized loss on AFS securities increased $3.9 million from $29.1 million at December 31, 2025, to $33.0 million at March 31, 2026. The unrealized losses on the held to maturity portfolio totaled $9.6 million at March 31, 2026 and $9.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increases in unrealized losses related to the AFS and HTM investment portfolios reflected increased market interest rates comparing March 31, 2026 to December 31, 2025.
Total deposits were $4.4 billion at March 31, 2026, a decrease of $8.7 million from $4.4 billion at December 31, 2025. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $14.8 million to $969.3 million at March 31, 2026, from $954.5 million at December 31, 2025. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $23.5 million comparing March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, which largely reflected decreases in retail time deposits, and brokered deposits partially offset by increases in money market and interest-bearing demand deposits. As part of strategic balance sheet management initiatives, the Company continued to reduce its higher rate brokered CD portfolio. As a result, brokered time deposits decreased $40.1 million to $112.1 million at March 31, 2026 from $152.2 million at December 31, 2025. Total retail deposits, which exclude brokered deposits, increased $31.4 million to $4.3 billion at March 31, 2026, from $4.3 billion at December 31, 2025.
The Company maintained a strong capital position at March 31, 2026. Stockholders’ equity equaled $525.5 million or $52.50 per share at March 31, 2026, compared to $519.8 million or $52.01 per share at December 31, 2025. The increase in stockholders’ equity from December 31, 2025, is primarily attributable to net income, partially offset by dividends paid to shareholders and a $2.9 million increase to accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting primarily from a $3.0 million increase in the unrealized loss on AFS securities, net of deferred income taxes, to $25.8 million at March 31, 2026 from $22.8 million at December 31, 2025.
Tangible book value, a non-GAAP measure1, increased to $42.29 per share at March 31, 2026, from $41.64 per share at December 31, 2025. Dividends declared for the first quarter of 2026 were $0.625 per share compared to $0.6175 for the same quarter of 2025.

ASSET QUALITY REVIEW
The Company’s asset quality was stable at March 31, 2026 as compared to December 31, 2025, but showed significant improvement compared to March 31, 2025. Nonperforming assets, which include nonperforming loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and foreclosed assets, were $12.3 million or 0.29% of loans, net, and foreclosed assets at March 31, 2026, compared to $12.1 million or 0.30% of loans, net, and foreclosed assets at December 31, 2025, which resulted from an increase in loans on nonaccrual status partially offset by a reduction in accruing loans that were past due 90 days or more. However, as compared to March 31, 2025, nonperforming assets decreased $11.3 million from $23.7 million, which was primarily due to an $11.6 million reduction in nonaccrual loans. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.23% at both March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025 compared to 0.47% at March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company had one foreclosed commercial property recorded at $0.8 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, net charge-offs were $0.8 million and the provision for credit losses was $1.4 million, compared to net charge-offs of $0.9 million and a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million for the same period of 2025. The allowance for credit losses equaled $39.6 million or 0.94% of loans, net, at March 31, 2026, compared to $39.0 million or 0.96% of loans, net, at December 31, 2025 and $41.1 million or 1.03% of loans, net at March 31, 2025.
