Insights

Middlefield delivered impressive Q2 results with 46.2% EPS growth, margin expansion, and improved asset quality despite banking sector challenges.

Middlefield Banc Corp's Q2 2025 results showcase a remarkably strong performance across multiple metrics. The 46.2% year-over-year increase in EPS to $0.76 is particularly impressive in today's banking environment. This substantial earnings growth stems from several factors working in tandem: record loan growth (up 5.6% to $1.58 billion), net interest margin expansion (up 37 basis points to 3.88%), and improved asset quality (nonperforming assets to total assets down 32 basis points to 1.30%).

The bank's net interest income jumped 15.6% year-over-year to $17.4 million, demonstrating effective balance sheet management amid a challenging rate environment. The 37 basis point margin expansion is particularly notable as many regional banks continue struggling with margin compression. This expansion likely stems from their success in managing deposit costs while maintaining loan yields.

On the asset quality front, the improvement is significant and against the trend seen at many peers. The bank successfully reduced a problematic loan, bringing nonperforming assets down $4.9 million from December 2024. The $506,000 recovery for credit losses in Q2 further underscores the improving credit picture.

The 8.4% deposit growth is another bright spot, though the increasing reliance on brokered deposits (now $165.1 million vs. $86.5 million year-over-year) bears watching as these are typically more expensive and less stable than core deposits. However, management reported a seven-basis point reduction in funding costs since the start of the year, suggesting they're navigating this challenge effectively.

The real estate exchange in Westerville that generated a $1.2 million one-time gain demonstrates strategic market positioning, particularly in Central Ohio where the bank sees growth opportunities. While this transaction boosted quarterly results, even excluding this non-recurring item, the core operational performance remains strong.

Shareholder value continues to build with book value up 4.3% to $26.74 and tangible book value increasing 6.1% to $21.60. The 5% dividend increase implemented in Q1 2025 reflects management's confidence in sustainable profitability.

The commercial real estate (CRE) portfolio appears well-diversified across sectors, with healthy loan-to-value ratios (mostly in the 50-65% range), providing a buffer against potential market volatility. At 43.1% of the total loan portfolio, the CRE concentration is manageable and better positioned than many community banks with heavier commercial real estate exposure.

MIDDLEFIELD, Ohio, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Middlefield Banc Corp. (NASDAQ: MBCN) today reported financial results for the sixmonths ended June 30, 2025.

“The second quarter of 2025 was another strong quarter of growth, profitability and value creation for Middlefield,� stated Ronald L. Zimmerly, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer. “Total loans have increased at an 8.2% annualized rate since the beginning of the year to a record $1.58billion, asset quality continued to improve sequentially, and our net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 expanded 37 basis points year-over-year to 3.88%. These results led to strong growth in profitability during the quarter. Net income also benefited from a $1.2million net gain on the exchange of real estateassociated with the relocation of our Westerville, Ohio branch. Relocating our Westerville office is a great opportunity, supported by favorable demographics and underscores our multi-year strategy to expand our presence in the Central Ohio region. We expect our new Westerville branch to open in the second half of 2025.�

“I am pleased by the strong start to 2025 and the direction we are headed. We remain focused on investing in our platform, which includes upgrades to our technology infrastructure, adding new, experienced commercial bankers, and pursuing opportunities to expand Middlefield across our compelling Ohio markets. As a result of these efforts and the contributions of our high-performing team, we expect additional loan and core deposit growth to benefit profitability throughout the remainder of 2025,� concluded Mr. Zimmerly.

Asset Quality
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a recovery ofcredit losses of $411,000,compared to a recovery ofcredit losses of $49,000for the same period of 2024.

Net recoveries were $227,000, or (0.03%)of average loans, annualized, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net recoveries of $97,000, or (0.01%) of average loans, annualized, for the same period of 2024.

Nonperforming loans at June 30, 2025, were $25.1 million, compared to $16.0 million at June 30, 2024. The year-over-year increase in nonperforming assets wasprimarily due toa $12.0million loan moved to nonaccrual in the 2024 third quarter.The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025, stood at $22.3 million, or 1.41% of total loans, compared to $21.8 million, or 1.46% of total loans at June 30, 2024. The increase in the allowance for credit losses was mainly from changes in projected loss drivers, prepayment assumptions, curtailment expectations over the reasonable and supportable forecast period, and geographic footprint of unemployment data,as well as an overall increase in total loans.

Mr. Ranttila continued, “Asset quality demonstrates the success of our disciplined approach to credit quality and risk management, as nonperforming assets to total assets have improved to 1.30% at June 30, 2025, compared to 1.56% at March 31, 2025, and 1.62% at December 31, 2024. Over the past sixmonths, non-performing assets declined by $4.9million from $30.0 million at December 31, 2024, primarily as a result of the successful payoff of onepreviously disclosed non-accruing loan. In addition, reductions in the reserve against individually analyzed loans as well as thereserve for unfunded commitments drove a $506,000 recovery for credit losses in the second quarter. We continue to expect stable economic activity across our Central, Western and Northeast Ohio markets that will support loan demand and asset quality throughout 2025.”�
