Exhibit 99.1

Clinton, NJ -- Unity Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTY), parent company of Unity Bank, reported net income of $9.5 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to net income of $9.6 million, or $0.93 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. This represents a 1.4% decrease in net income and no change in net income per diluted share. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Unity Bancorp reported net income of $19.0 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, compared to net income of $20.0 million, or $1.91 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This represents a 4.7% decrease in net income and a 2.6% decrease in net income per diluted share.

Second Quarter Earnings Highlights

●	Net interest income, the primary driver of earnings, was $23.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.4 million, as compared to $23.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Net interest margin (“NIM”) decreased 8 basis points to 4.01% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increasing faster than the yield of interest-earning assets.
●	The provision for credit losses on loans was $0.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The provision in the current quarter was primarily driven by increases in the specific reserve.
---	---
●	Provision for credit losses on Available For Sale (“AFS”) debt securities was $0.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, as compared to no provision for the prior quarter. The impairment was entirely attributable to the same corporate debt security for which a partial provision was taken in the fourth quarter of 2023. The Company owns $5 million in par of this position and moved the position into non-accrual status during the three months ending June 30, 2024. The net carrying value of the position was $3.1 million as of June 30, 2024.
---	---
●	Noninterest income was $2.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The $0.3 million increase was primarily due to increased BOLI income, other income and gain on sale of SBA loans. Other income is primarily comprised of interchange & wire fee revenues. The Bank sold $3.9 million of SBA loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
---	---
●	Noninterest expense was $12.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $12.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower compensation and benefit expenses, partially offset by increased furniture & equipment expense.
---	---
●	The effective tax rate was 24.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to 25.0% for the quarter ending March 31, 2024.
---	---

Balance Sheet Highlights

●	Total gross loans decreased $1.5 million, or 0.1%, from December 31, 2023, primarily due to decreases in the residential construction and residential mortgage categories. These decreases were partially offset by increases in the commercial loan category.
●	As of June 30, 2024, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of gross loans was 1.20%.
---	---
●	Total deposits increased $86.7 million, or 4.5%, from December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, 18.3% of total deposits were uninsured or uncollateralized. The Company’s deposit composition as of June 30, 2024, consisted of 21.0% in noninterest bearing demand deposits, 15.0% in interest-bearing demand deposits, 27.5% in savings deposits, and 36.5% in time deposits.
---	---
●	As of June 30, 2024, the loan to deposit ratio was 107.9%, representing a continued reduction from 112.9% as of December 31, 2023. Because the Company is in compliance with its 110% threshold, management plans to expand lending initiatives to non-owner occupied borrowers.
---	---
●	As of June 30, 2024, investments comprised 5.6% of total assets. Available for sale debt securities (“AFS”) were $99.1 million or 3.8% of total assets. Held to maturity (“HTM”) debt securities were $36.2 million or 1.4% of total assets. As of June 30, 2024, pre-tax net unrealized losses on AFS and HTM were $4.7 million and $7.2 million, respectively. These pre-tax unrealized losses represent approximately 4.2% of the Company’s Tier 1 capital. Equity securities were $9.9 million or 0.4% of total assets as of June 30, 2024.
---	---
●	Borrowed funds decreased $81.6 million from December 31, 2023. Borrowed funds were entirely comprised of borrowings from the FHLB.
---	---
●	Shareholders’ equity was $273.4 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $261.4 million as of December 31, 2023. The $12.0 million increase was primarily driven by 2024 earnings, partially offset by share repurchases and dividend payments. In the first half of 2024, Unity Bancorp repurchased 218,768 shares for approximately $5.9 million, or a weighted average price of $27.04 per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, Unity Bancorp repurchased 68,771 shares for approximately $1.8 million, or a weighted average price of $26.77 per share.
---	---
●	Book value per common share was $27.41 as of June 30, 2024, compared to $25.98 as of December 31, 2023. This increase primarily reflects earnings offset by dividend payouts and share repurchases.
---	---
●	Below is a summary of the Company’s regulatory capital ratios:
---	---
o	The Leverage Ratio increased 53 basis points to 11.67% at June 30, 2024, compared to 11.14% at December 31, 2023.

---	---
●	As of June 30, 2024, nonperforming assets were $15.2 million, compared to $19.2 million as of December 31, 2023 and $16.9 million as of March 31, 2024.
