The increase was primarily due to a $5.5 million increase in net interest income, and a $0.4 million decrease in provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in non-interest expense.Net interest income increased $5.5 million, or 33.3%, to $22.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $16.6 million for the same period in 2025.The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a provision for credit losses of $0.6 million for the same period in 2025.Non-interest income increased slightly by $0.03 million, or 3.9%, to $0.85 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $0.82 million for the same period in 2025.Non-interest expense increased $0.7 million, or 10.4%, to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2025.The following is a recap of the significant items that impacted results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026:Interest income increased $3.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to an increase in interest and fees on loans of $4.4 million, or 14.0%, to $35.9 million, resulting from higher market interest rates and higher average loan portfolio balances.  Interest earned on average deposits held at the Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") decreased $1.3 million, or 60.3%, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, due to lower average balances on deposit and a decrease in the interest rate on those deposits.  Interest expense decreased $2.4 million, or 14.1%, to $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on deposits, due to a decrease in market interest rates, as well as a decrease in interest expense on borrowings.The Company booked a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a provision for credit losses of $0.6 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was due to lower growth in loans during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025.  Non-interest income increased $32.0 thousand, or 3.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily as a result of an increase in bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") income.  Non-interest expense increased $0.7 million, or 10.4%, to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025.  The increase was primarily driven by an increase in compensation and benefits of $0.4 million, and an increase in other operating expense of $0.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in professional services of $0.1 million, compared to the same period in 2025.  Income tax expense increased $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.  The effective tax rate for the three ended March 31, 2026 was 23.9%, compared to 24.5% for the same period in 2025.March 31, 2026 discussion of financial conditionTotal assets decreased to $2.21 billion at March 31, 2026, from $2.25 billion at December 31, 2025, a decrease of $36.5 million, or 1.6%, primarily due to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by an increase in net loans.Cash and cash equivalents totaled $110.9 million at March 31, 2026, as compared to $156.9 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to an increase in loan balances, and a decrease in primarily non-interest bearing and brokered deposit balances, partially offset by an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLBNY") borrowings.The investment securities portfolio decreased to $13.1 million at March 31, 2026, from $13.5 million at December 31, 2025, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 2.9%, primarily due to pay downs of securities. Gross loans increased $8.1 million or 0.4%, to $2.04 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to gross loans at December 31, 2025.Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2026 decreased to $9.2 million, or 0.45% of total loans, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 14.9%, from $10.8 million of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2025. OREO at March 31, 2026 was $2.9 million, unchanged from December 31, 2025.  Nonperforming assets (consisting of nonperforming loans and OREO) represented 0.54% and 0.61% of total assets at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Loans past due 30 to 89 days were $3.9 million at March 31, 2026, an increase of $0.4 million from December 31, 2025.  The allowance for credit losses was $34.9 million at March 31, 2026, as compared to $34.6 million at December 31, 2025.

The decrease in deposits was primarily driven by a decrease in non-interest bearing deposits of $32.4 million, time deposits of $24.0 million, brokered time deposits of $14.0 million, and interest-bearing deposits of $12.6 million, partially offset by an increase in money market deposits of $22.6 million. Total borrowings increased $10.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, to $153.4 million at March 31, 2026, from $143.4 million at December 31, 2025, due to a $10.0 million increase in outstanding FHLBNY borrowings. Total equity increased to $335.6 million at March 31, 2026, up from $324.5 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $11.0 million, or 3.4%, primarily due to the retention of earnings, partially offset by the payment of $2.1 million of cash dividends. CEO outlook and commentaryVito S. Pantilione, President and Chief Executive Officer of Parke Bancorp, Inc. and Parke Bank, provided the following statement:"2026 has started off with many of the challenges in 2025 continuing, and in some instances worsening. The immigration crisis, no clear direction of interest rates, inflation remaining a serious concern, the Russia – Ukraine war continuing, and the Iran conflict that started in February, are all challenges making it difficult to identify the market's direction. The market seemed to be checking the boxes for a couple of rate cuts, however, Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz, combined with the interruption of oil production has triggered sharp increases in oil and gas prices, reigniting inflation. It is important for banks, including Parke Bank, to remain nimble and responsive to address possible challenges and evolving opportunities.""Parke Bank had a pretty good first quarter in 2026. When comparing it to the first quarter of 2025, our Assets, Loans, Deposits and Shareholder Equity increased from the first quarter of 2025 to the first quarter of 2026. Net income for the first quarter of 2026 increased 52.3% to $11.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2025. This increase was partially due to the growth and yield of our loan portfolio, in addition to our tight control of expenses, with an Efficiency Ratio of 31.39% at March 31, 2026. Our Return on Assets improved to 2.19%, a 48.0% increase from the first quarter of 2025, and our Return on Equity improved to 14.47%, a 39.7% increase from the first quarter of 2025. The improvement of our Net Interest Margin to 4.17%, a 29.9% improvement, played an important part in these improved numbers.""Parke Bank is well positioned to navigate the many challenges affecting the economy and the market, with strong capital, earnings, liquidity and continued tight control of expenses."Forward Looking Statement DisclaimerThis release may contain forward-looking statements.

I'm a big fan of this family run bank. Low expense ratio, consistently high ROE over the years, and given that they've focused on loans instead of holding securities, the bank hasn't been affected by this big drop on bond prices.
