The earnings per weighted average common share for the second quarter of 2026 were $0.19 compared to earnings per weighted average common share of $0.27 for the second quarter of 2025. Per share figures are based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 4,617,466 for the second quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The decrease in net income for the second quarter of 2026 was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income of $553,000 to $4,919,000 for the second quarter of 2026 compared with $5,472,000 for the second quarter of 2025. Total interest income decreased by $527,000 to $6,937,000 for the second quarter of 2026 as compared with $7,464,000 for the second quarter of 2025 due to lower interest income on securities and overnight federal funds. Total interest expense increased by $26,000 to $2,018,000 for the second quarter of 2026 as compared with $1,992,000 for the second quarter of 2025 due to higher interest rates paid on borrowings.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Net income for the first six months of 2026 decreased $209,000 to $2,343,000 compared to net income of $2,552,000 for the first six months of 2025. The earnings per weighted average common share for the first six months of 2026 were $0.51 compared to earnings per weighted average common share of $0.55 for the first six months of 2025. Per share figures are based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 4,617,466 for the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The income tax expense decreased $101,000 to $519,000 for the first six months of 2026 as compared with $620,000 for the first six months of 2025. The decrease was due to lower pre-tax income in 2026 compared to 2025.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Return on average assets for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, decreased 0.01% to 0.63% compared to 0.64% for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. The Company\u2019s efficiency ratio increased 2% to 80% for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 78% for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <u>Asset Quality<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>\u201cThe Bank\u2019s leadership remains committed to maintaining high-quality assets. We are closely monitoring economic conditions and staying vigilant for any potential changes in interest rates,\u201d said Chevis C. Swetman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <u>Shareholders\u2019 Equity<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Total shareholders\u2019 equity increased by $1,043,000 from $100,667,000 at December 31, 2025, to $101,710,000 at June 30, 2026. The improvement in shareholders\u2019 equity was partially due to the six-month earnings of $2,343,000 through June 30, 2026. Also, the Company has paid dividends of $831,000 to shareholders of record since December 31, 2025. The Company also experienced an increase of $469,000 in unrealized losses on securities in 2026. The Company reported $29,398,000 and $28,929,000 in unrealized losses on the available for sale securities portfolio as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. These unrealized losses are presented in accumulated other comprehensive income for the respective periods. The cause of the unrealized losses has primarily resulted from higher interest rates that have impacted the current market value of available for sale securities. The unrealized losses are not related to any credit deterioration within the portfolio. The Company has maintained strong liquidity and continues to do so; therefore, the Company does not foresee a sale of any affected securities that would cause the realization of these losses by the Company as part of net income in the near future.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Bank\u2019s leverage ratio has not been impacted by these unrealized losses on available for sale securities due to an opt-out election previously made by the Bank in accordance with current regulatory capital requirements and therefore remained strong at 15.22% as of June 30, 2026.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <u>Liquidity<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>The Company maintains a well-capitalized balance sheet which includes strong capital and liquidity. The Bank provides a full range of banking, financial and trust services in our local markets. The majority of the Bank\u2019s deposits are fully FDIC insured. The Company evaluates on an ongoing and continuous basis its financial health by preparing for various moderate to severe economic scenarios.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">As of June 30, 2026, total deposits have increased $5,348,000 to $609,777,000 from $604,429,000 as of December 31, 2025. This is mainly due to an influx of public fund tax deposits during the first and last quarters of 2026 and 2025 that are then allocated by the public accountholders throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <u>About the Company<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Founded in 1896, with $771 million in total assets as of June 30, 2026, The Peoples Bank operates 18 bank facilities along the Mississippi Gulf Coast in Hancock, Harrison, Jackson and Stone counties. In addition to offering a comprehensive range of retail and commercial banking services, the Bank also operates a trust and investment services department that has provided customers with financial, estate and retirement planning services since 1936.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Peoples Financial Corporation\u2019s common stock is listed on the OTCQX Best Market under the symbol PFBX.
