Christopher J. Murphy III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In spite of the noise in the economy and the uncertainty in the market, we are pleased to have achieved record quarterly net income during the quarter and net interest margin expansion compared to the previous quarter. Higher rates on investment securities, increased average loan and lease balances, and less reliance on higher costing short-term borrowings lead to a 12-basis point improvement of our margin from the prior quarter. This marks the fifth consecutive quarter of margin expansion despite persistent deposit rate competition. Most importantly, our balance sheet remained strong during the quarter and is well positioned to handle economic uncertainty, which seems to be increasing every day, adversely impacting our customers and their businesses. Our liquidity position is solid and our historically conservative capital position was maintained.

"During the first quarter of 2025 we were very happy to learn that 1st Source Bank won several local and national accolades. For the second consecutive year, we were included in Forbes' America's Best Banks list and came in at #26 out of the top 100 named. This award is driven by 10 metrics addressing growth, credit quality and profitability - a set of proof points that we are continuing to maintain a strong and stable balance sheet, sustainable earnings, and are staying true to our mission of helping our clients achieve security, build wealth, and realize their dreams.

"Additionally, for the fourth consecutive year, we were named to Forbes' America's Best Midsize Employers list. We are especially proud of this award because the list identifies companies that are rated most highly by their employees. They ranked the employers on everything from salary, work environment, training programs, and opportunities to advance. It is confirmation that our leadership team is upholding our culture built on core values of integrity, teamwork, superior quality, outstanding client service, and community leadership.

"In March, we were also pleased to learn that we were designated by S&P Global Market Intelligence's unit as among the Top 50 Community Banks with $3B to $10B in assets for the second year in a row, coming in at #25. This is a testament to our commitment to making smart financial decisions for the long term.

"At the state and local levels, we were recognized for our small business lending across the state of Indiana for the 12th consecutive year by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). 1st Source once again received the Community Bank Gold Level Award for delivering the greatest number of SBA loans in Indiana in 2024. We were also proud to learn that we won five awards in Northwest Indiana Business Magazine's Best of Business awards in the Banking and Finance category. The awards won included Best Bank for Business, Best Bank for Customer Service, Best Business Investment Firm, Best Institution for Obtaining a Business Loan, and Best Wealth Management Advisory Firm - all in Michiana.

"And finally, in the first quarter, our Kouts and Portage Avenue Banking Centers underwent renovations and were converted to our side-by-side banking model. Our Winamac Banking Center was moved to a new location and now also showcases the side-by-side model. This experience invites clients behind the teller line, allowing for the Bank's clients and bankers to have a more transparent and inclusive relationship. We are also excited to have opened a new banking center in Carmel, Indiana in early April. This new location complements our existing loan production office in the Greater Indianapolis market, and we are eager to be able to serve both personal and business clients in that area with our full suite of services," Mr. Murphy concluded.

FIRST QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Loans and Leases

First quarter average loans and leases were $6.80 billion, which was up $122.53 million or 1.84% from the previous quarter, and increased $294.88 million, up 4.53% from the first quarter a year ago. Average loan and lease growth from the previous quarter occurred primarily within the Commercial Real Estate, Aircraft, Commercial and Agricultural, and Construction Equipment portfolios. Average loan and lease growth from the first quarter of 2024 was primarily in the Commercial Real Estate, Construction Equipment, and Renewable Energy portfolios. End of period loans and leases of $6.86 billion on March 31, 2025, were relatively flat from December 31, 2024, and were up $300.62 million or 4.58% from March 31, 2024.

Deposits

First quarter average deposits were $7.33 billion, which was up $187.39 million, or 2.62%, from the previous quarter, and up $322.44 million or 4.60% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Average deposit balances increased from the previous quarter primarily due to higher brokered and savings balances offset by lower interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing demand balances. Average deposit balance growth from the first quarter of 2024 was primarily in time, savings, and interest-bearing demand offset by decreased noninterest-bearing demand and brokered deposits. End of period deposits of $7.42 billion on March 31, 2025, were up $187.73 million or 2.60% from December 31, 2024, and were up $362.45 million or 5.14% from March 31, 2024.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

First quarter 2025 tax-equivalent net interest income increased $1.57 million to $81.09 million, up 1.97% from the previous quarter and increased $9.02 million, up 12.52% from the first quarter a year ago.

First quarter 2025 net interest margin was 3.89%, an increase of 12 basis points from the 3.77% in the previous quarter and an increase of 35 basis points from the same period in 2024. On a fully tax-equivalent basis, first quarter 2025 net interest margin was 3.90%, up 12 basis points compared to the 3.78% in the previous quarter, and an increase of 36 basis points from the same period in 2024. The increase from the prior quarter and first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher rates on investment securities, increased average loan and lease balances and less reliance on higher costing short-term borrowings. Additionally, higher net interest recoveries contributed seven basis points during the first quarter compared to three basis points in the previous quarter and four basis points in the prior year first quarter.

Noninterest Income

First quarter 2025 noninterest income of $23.10 million was up $4.62 million, or 25.00% from the previous quarter, and increased $0.95 million, up 4.27% compared to the first quarter a year ago.

The increase in noninterest income compared to the previous quarter was mainly due to available-for-sale securities losses of $3.90 million and a $0.86 million writedown on a small business capital investment that were realized in the prior quarter, and increased insurance contingent commissions offset by lower debit card income, fewer deposit account fees, and reduced equipment rental income as demand for operating leases continued to decline.

The increase in noninterest income compared to the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to increased partnership investment gains on sale of renewable energy tax equity investments, increased interest rate swap fees, higher brokerage and commission fees, increased insurance contingent commissions and higher trust and wealth and advisory income due to improvements in overall market performance. These increases were offset by reduced equipment rental income as demand for operating leases declined and decreases in mortgage banking income from lower sales volumes and servicing fees.

Noninterest Expense

First quarter 2025 noninterest expense of $53.08 million decreased $1.13 million or 2.09% compared to the prior quarter and increased $4.37 million or 8.98% from the first quarter a year ago.

The increase in noninterest expense compared to the first quarter of 2024, was the result of higher salaries and wages from normal merit increases, increased incentive compensation and higher group insurance claims. Additionally, we saw increased data processing costs, higher professional fees as a result of increased audit and legal fees, fewer gains on the sale of fixed assets and off-lease equipment, and increased occupancy expense. These increases were offset by lower leased equipment depreciation and decreased blanket insurance premiums.

Credit

The allowance for loan and lease losses increased to $157.47 million as of March 31, 2025, or 2.29% of total loans and leases primarily as a result of a weakened forward economic outlook with increased uncertainty. This percentage compared to 2.27% at December 31, 2024, and 2.26% at March 31, 2024. Net charge-offs of $0.18 million were recorded for the first quarter of 2025, compared with net charge-offs of $0.69 million in the prior quarter and net charge-offs of $6.12 million in the same quarter a year ago.

The provision for credit losses was $3.27 million for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of $0.32 million from the previous quarter and a decrease of $4.21 million compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease in the provision expense compared to the first quarter a year ago was due to decreased net charge-offs and lower special attention outstandings offset by loan growth and an increase in the provision for unfunded commitments. The ratio of nonperforming assets to loans and leases was 0.63% as of March 31, 2025, compared to 0.46% on December 31, 2024, and 0.34% on March 31, 2024.

Capital

As of March 31, 2025, the common equity-to-assets ratio was 12.96%, compared to 12.44% at December 31, 2024, and 11.65% a year ago. The tangible common equity-to-tangible assets ratio was 12.14% at March 31, 2025, compared to 11.61% at December 31, 2024, and 10.79% a year earlier. The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio, calculated under banking regulatory guidelines, was 14.71% at March 31, 2025, compared to 14.21% at December 31, 2024, and 13.48% a year ago.

Capital accretion over the last twelve months has been driven primarily by growth in retained earnings and a reduction in unrealized losses in our short-duration investment securities available-for-sale portfolio.

During the first quarter of 2025, 7,554 shares were repurchased for treasury reducing common shareholders' equity by $0.45 million.
