Adjusted net income increased by $5.3 million, or 84.71%, in the nine month comparison when adjusted for nonrecurring, merger related costs. This resulted in an increase in adjusted earnings per share of $0.93. Earnings for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2025 increased to $2.50 per share compared to $1.96 per share for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2025 as merger related costs in the third quarter of 2024 no longer impact the calculation.

Edwards continued, “During the quarter, we increased our semi-annual dividend to $0.27 per share, which represents an increase of 17.39%, when compared to the semi-annual dividend of $0.23 per share paid in the third quarter of 2024. I believe we remain well positioned for growth and success in the future and know that our employees will continue to deliver on our brand promise of being “Always our Best” for our customers each and every day.”
