Andrea G. Short, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to announce that we achieved record quarterly net income during the third quarter along with net interest margin expansion and an improved efficiency ratio. Average loans and leases grew $112.77 million, up 1.58% while average deposits increased marginally due to seasonal outflows of public fund deposits, compared to the previous quarter. Average year-to-date deposits, net of brokered deposits, increased $238.74 million or 3.50% compared to the prior year. Strong credit quality continued during the quarter with low net charge-offs, a lower provision for credit losses, and a reduction in nonperforming assets. Our liquidity and capital positions remained strong during the quarter.
“We were excited to launch the Payments Hub platform for our Treasury Services clients, offering significant time savings and efficient payment routing. This new platform modernizes and simplifies payment operations for single, electronic payments by bringing payment activities into a centralized platform. It incorporates standard ACH, FedNow®, Real-Time Payments® and Instant Payments®, all of which offer different combinations of speed, cost, and availability. Rather than requiring our clients to become experts in each payment type, this new platform uses intelligent payment routing, which chooses the best payment choice balancing speed and costs.
“We were very pleased to learn during the third quarter that 1st Source Bank was named to the American Banker list of 2026 Top-Performing Banks with $2 billion to $10 billion in assets. Banks were ranked on their three-year average return on average equity, or ROAE, using year-end 2025 data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence and analyzed by Capital Performance Group (CPG). Additionally, 1st Source was included in Bank Director’s RankingBanking list of The Best U.S. Banks in 2026, which ranks the 300 largest publicly traded banks.
“Another welcome honor was when two of our Board members along with myself, were named on the Indiana 250 list by IBJ Media. Chris Murphy, our Executive Chairman, and Tracy Graham were both included in the list that highlights the most influential business leaders in Indiana. We are honored to have this level of experience and leadership on our Board of Directors.” Mrs. Short concluded.
