Shareholders, Clients, and Team Members:

Despite a difficult operating environment, your Company is reporting pre-tax income of approximately $2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The Company reported 13.44% return on average tangible shareholders' equity, strong liquidity and asset quality metrics. The recent downward movement in long term treasury yields improved the Company's unrealized loss position and resulting tangible book value to $18.98 per share. Earnings of $0.60 per share for the quarter were suppressed by significant headwinds for our residential mortgage team and increased costs due to inflationary pressures, however, the bank has offset some of those headwinds by right sizing staffing levels with decreases of over 16% in the past five quarters.

I am pleased to report that the Board of Directors declared a $0.22 per common share dividend payable June 15, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 31, 2023. The dividend is approximately 37% of the reported net income for the first quarter of 2023.

While we expect the headwinds and compressing margins to continue to have a negative impact on your Company's earnings throughout 2023 and into 2024, we believe that continued efforts on cost control, new loan volumes, and repricing of existing loans at market rates through this cycle will offset some of that earnings pressure. The efforts of the team and our strong corporate values of respect for and accountability to our shareholders, clients, colleagues, and communities are the foundation for the continued success of your Company. Thank you for your ongoing support and the trust you have placed in us.

Respectfully,

Brian D. Young,
President and CEO
