ACNB CORPORATION REPORTS

FOURTH QUARTER AND 2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS

GETTYSBURG, PA, January 23, 2025 --- ACNB Corporation (NASDAQ: ACNB) ("ACNB" or the "Corporation"), financial holding company for ACNB Bank and ACNB Insurance Services, Inc., announced net income of $6.6 million, or $0.77 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a $2.5 million, or 61.0%, increase, compared to net income of $4.1 million, or $0.48 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and a $609 thousand, or 8.5%, decrease compared to net income of $7.2 million, or $0.84 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The Corporation reported net income of $31.8 million, or $3.73 per diluted earnings per share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $158 thousand, or 0.5%, compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The financial results for both the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 were impacted by $885 thousand and $2.0 million, respectively, in merger-related expense due to the pending acquisition of Traditions Bancorp, Inc. Financial results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 were impacted by a $2.8 million reversal of the provisions for credit losses and unfunded commitments. Financial results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 were impacted by a repositioning of the investment securities portfolio in which ACNB sold approximately $51.1 million in book value of available for sale investment securities generating an after-tax loss of approximately $3.5 million.

2024 Highlights

  • Retuon average assets was 1.31% and retuon average equity was 10.94% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.
  • Fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") net interest margin was 3.79% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to 4.07% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
  • Total non-performing loans to total loans, net of unearned income, was 0.40% at December 31, 2024 compared to 0.26% at December 31, 2023. The increase in non-performing loans to total loans, net of unearned income, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was driven primarily by one long- standing commercial relationship in the healthcare industry, comprised of both owner-occupied commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, that moved into non-performing loan status during the current year.

  • Net charge-offs to average loans outstanding were 0.02% for both the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
  • Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio1 of 10.72% at December 31, 2024 compared to 9.48% at December 31, 2023.

  • ACNB and ACNB Bank capital levels remain well in excess of ACNB's internal minimums and those required to be categorized as a well-capitalized institution by our bank regulators.

"We are excited to share a strong year of operating results with our shareholders. Our continued focus on community banking principles have produced another year of solid financial performance and continued strong returns for our shareholders. In addition, we were successfully able to announce the strategic acquisition of Traditions Bancorp, Inc. that will create one of the largest community banks in Pennsylvania with assets less than $5 billion. We currently expect the acquisition of Traditions Bancorp, Inc. to be effective February 1, 2025." said James P. Helt, ACNB Corporation President and Chief Executive Officer.

"As we tuour focus to 2025, we look forward to successfully integrating Traditions Bank's customers and employees into the ACNB model as we expand our presence in York and Lancaster counties. We are confident that this acquisition will complement our current operations with profitable growth opportunities and will contribute to our commitment of enhancing long-term shareholder value."

Mr. Helt continued, "We would like to express our gratitude for the continued support of our shareholders, customers and employees that have enabled us to fulfill our vision to be the independent financial services provider of choice in the markets that we serve by building relationships and finding solutions."

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 totaled $21.1 million, an increase of $170 thousand, or 0.8%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 driven by an increase in the FTE net interest margin over the same period. The FTE net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was 3.81%, an increase of 4 basis points from 3.77% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in FTE net interest margin was driven primarily by the recognition of nonaccrual interest income on a commercial loan removed from nonaccrual status, a decrease in average short-term borrowings, a decrease in a time deposit promotional rate and an increase in seasonal, lower-cost deposits. Total average loans decreased $4.4 million, or 0.3%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The yield on total loans was 5.61% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 5 basis points compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Total average borrowings decreased $15.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period in September 30, 2024. A short-term $25.0 million FHLB advance was paid off during August of 2024. The average rate paid on total borrowings was 4.27% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of 4 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2024. Total average interest-bearing deposits increased $14.3 million, or 1.1%, for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period September 30, 2024 driven primarily by a $10.5 million increase in average time deposit balances due to an ongoing promotion and an increase in brokered time deposits. In October of 2024, ACNB Bank issued $24.1 million in brokered time deposits. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 0.96% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 4 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 totaled $83.6 million, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 5.3%, from $88.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 driven by a decrease in the FTE net interest margin over the same period. The FTE net interest margin for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was 3.79%, a 28 basis points decrease from 4.07% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was driven primarily by a higher cost of funds and an increase in long-term borrowings. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 0.83% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 58 basis points from the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The average rate paid on total borrowings was 4.36% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 74 basis points from the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Total average borrowings increased $162.5 million, or 127.2%, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period of 2023.

Total average loans grew $94.9 million, or 6.0%, and the yield increased 36 basis points for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period of 2023.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $5.8 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 15.1%, from the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was driven primarily by insurance commissions and wealth management income. Insurance commissions for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $2.1 million, a $682 thousand, or 24.5%, decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to seasonality in policy renewals. Wealth management income was $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a $181 thousand, or 15.2%, decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2024 driven primarily by lower estate income.

Noninterest income, excluding net gains (losses) on sales or calls of securities, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was $24.7 million, an increase of $976 thousand, or 4.1%, from the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. On December 15, 2023, ACNB completed a repositioning of the investment securities portfolio by selling $51.1 million in book value of AFS debt securities, consisting of lower-yielding agency debt securities, for an estimated pre-tax loss of $4.5 million. The increase in noninterest income, excluding net gains (losses) on sales or calls of securities, was driven primarily by wealth management income, insurance commissions and gain from mortgage loans held for sale. Wealth management income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was $4.2 million compared to $3.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by portfolio market appreciation, estate income and new business generation. Insurance commissions for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 were $9.8 million compared to $9.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The increase of $435 thousand was driven primarily by growth in commissions on policy renewals and new business. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, gains from mortgage loans held for sale increased $245 thousand, compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as a result of a higher volume of mortgage loans sold.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $18.4 million, an increase of $144 thousand, or 0.8%, from the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by equipment and other expenses partially offset by lower salaries and employee benefits. Equipment expenses increased $626 thousand, or 36.9%, driven primarily by higher core processing and software expenses and incremental purchases of office equipment related to the upcoming Traditions acquisition of $355 thousand.

Press Release/Fourth Quarter and 2024 Financial Results

Other expenses increased $169 thousand, or 8.4%, driven primarily by a decrease in the net asset value of a Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") investment and an increase in marketing, miscellaneous employee and director expenses. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $699 thousand, or 6.3%, driven primarily by lower base wages and employee health insurance expense. Merger-related expense totaled $885 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Noninterest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 increased $4.6 million, or 7.0%, compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by merger-related and salaries and employee benefits expenses. Merger-related expense totaled $2.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to none for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $2.0 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 driven primarily by higher employee health insurance expense and higher base wages. Additionally, equipment expense increased $807 thousand, or 12.4% due to higher core processing and software maintenance expenses coupled with incremental purchases of office equipment related to the upcoming Traditions acquisition of $355 thousand. Professional services expense decreased $180 thousand, or 7.8%, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 driven primarily by a decrease in consulting expenses.

Loans and Asset Quality

Total loans outstanding were $1.68 billion at December 31, 2024, an increase of $5.8 million, or 0.3%, from September 30, 2024 and an increase of $54.9 million, or 3.4%, from December 31, 2023. The increases from both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were driven primarily by growth in the commercial real estate portfolio in our core markets and was spread throughout the Bank's geographic footprint and across various property types. The commercial real estate portfolio grew $70.8 million, or 7.9%, in 2024. The collateral for these loans is primarily spread across our Pennsylvania and Maryland market areas. Despite the intense competition in the Corporation's market areas, management continues to focus on asset quality and disciplined underwriting standards in the loan origination process.

Asset quality metrics continue to be stable. The provisions for credit losses and unfunded commitments were $249 thousand and $44 thousand, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $81 thousand and $40 thousand, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, there were reversals to the provisions for credit losses and unfunded commitments of $2.4 million and $326 thousand, respectively, compared to a provision for credit losses of $860 thousand and a $16 thousand reversal to the provision for unfunded commitments for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in the provisions for credit losses and unfunded commitments for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year was driven primarily by updated estimates utilized as input assumptions within the Current Expected Credit Loss "CECL" model calculation. These estimates, which were based on more current information available during 2024, drive input assumptions which are used in the determination of the Corporation's allowance for credit losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments.

Non-performing loans were $6.8 million, or 0.40%, of total loans, net of unearned income, at December 31, 2024 compared to $6.6 million, or 0.39%, of total loans at September 30, 2024 and $4.2 million, or 0.26%, of total loans at December 31, 2023. The increase in non-performing loans at December 31, 2024 compared to the prior quarter was driven primarily by one loan that moved to greater than 90 days past due and still accruing partially offset by the movement of one relationship back to accruing status. The increase in non- performing loans at December 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 was driven primarily by one long-

standing commercial relationship in the healthcare industry, comprised of both owner-occupied commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, that moved into non-performing loan status during the year. Annualized net charge-offs for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were 0.04% of total average loans compared to 0.01% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Net charge-offs for both the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were 0.02% of total average loans.

Deposits and Borrowings

Deposits totaled $1.79 billion at December 31, 2024, an increase of $1.2 million, or 0.1%, since September 30, 2024 and a decrease of $69.3 million, or 3.7%, from December 31, 2023. Included in total deposits were $1.34 billion interest-bearing deposits at December 31, 2024 which increased $13.2 million, or 1.0%, from September 30, 2024 and decreased $20.5 million, or 1.5%, from December 31, 2023. Time deposits, included in interest-bearing deposits, increased $16.3 million, or 6.3%, and $40.9 million, or 17.6%, since September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. In October of 2024, ACNB Bank issued $24.1 million in brokered time deposits to offset outflows of municipal deposits during the quarter. Total noninterest- bearing deposits were $451.5 million at December 31, 2024 compared to $463.5 million at September 30, 2024 and $500.3 million at December 31, 2023.

Total borrowings were $271.2 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $21.9 million, or 7.5%, compared to September 30, 2024 and an increase of $19.0 million, or 7.5%, compared to December 31, 2023. The decrease in total borrowings from September 30, 2024 to December 31, 2024 was driven primarily by a seasonal decrease in repurchase agreements. The increase in total borrowings from December 31, 2023 to December 31, 2024 was driven primarily by an increase in FHLB borrowings to fund balance sheet activity.

The average rate on total borrowings was 4.27% for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to 4.31% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 4.06% for the three months ended December 31, 2023. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, the average rate on total borrowings was 4.36% compared to 3.62% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Stockholders' Equity

Total stockholders' equity was $303.3 million at December 31, 2024 compared to $306.8 million at September 30, 2024 and $277.5 million at December 31, 2023. Tangible book value2 per share was $29.51, $29.90 and $26.44 at December 31, 2024, September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
