As a result of our steadfast commitment to our shareholders, customers, and employees, our financial performance during the year has positioned ACNB Corporation to meet the future demands facing our industry and our customers,” said James P.

“We began 2023 with our rebranding efforts and the concept of One Together, One Team, One Brand. The goal of brand realignment is for ACNB Corporation and its subsidiaries to operate cohesively under one name and one brand to effectively serve the financial needs of customers throughout the organization’s footprint in southcentral Pennsylvania and central Maryland.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 totaled $21.5 million, a decrease of $252 thousand, or 1.2%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decline in net interest income was driven primarily by an increase in the cost of deposits and an increase in borrowings. The FTE net interest margin was 3.93%, a decrease of 8 basis points from 4.01% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 0.51% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 25 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average rate paid on total borrowings was 4.06% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 23 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 4.62% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 16 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Net interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 totaled $88.3 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 5.9%, over the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The increase in net interest income was driven primarily by higher interest rates. Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) fees and purchase accounting accretion for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 totaled $1.2 million compared to $3.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The FTE net interest margin was 4.07% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 71 basis points from 3.36% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 0.25% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 10 basis points from the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $970 thousand, a decrease of $5.3 million, or 84.6%, from the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, noninterest income was $18.4 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 15.4%, compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in both periods was driven primarily by the repositioning of the investment securities portfolio which generated a $4.5 million pre-tax loss on the sale of investment securities.

Insurance commissions for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $1.9 million, a decrease of $681 thousand from the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to seasonality in annual policy renewals. Insurance commissions for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was $9.3 million, an increase of $1.0 million from the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 driven primarily by higher contingent income, organic growth and the full year contribution from the acquisition of the business and assets of the Hockley & O’Donnell Insurance Agency in early 2022. Wealth management income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was $3.6 million, an increase of $484 thousand from the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 driven primarily by strong market returns, greater sales activity and new business generation. Earnings on investment in bank-owned life insurance for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was $1.9 million, an increase of $346 thousand from the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 driven primarily by additional purchases during the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $17.2 million, an increase of $837 thousand, or 5.1%, from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increases in salaries and employee benefits, equipment, professional services and FDIC and regulatory expenses. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $527 thousand driven primarily by an increase in incentive compensation, an increase in employment taxes and an increase in expense due to loan originations. Equipment expense increased $176 thousand driven primarily by increases in core processing and annual maintenance expenses and purchases of additional equipment. Professional services increased $103 thousand primarily as a result of increased loan review and consulting expenses. The $68 thousand increase in FDIC and regulatory was the result of a higher FDIC assessment due to changes in the composition of ACNB’s balance sheet.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, noninterest expense was $66.1 million compared to $60.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The $5.8 million, or 9.6%, increase was primarily driven by increases in salaries and employee benefits, professional services, marketing and corporate relations, FDIC and regulatory and other expenses. Salaries and employee benefits increased $5.0 million in the comparable period, driven primarily by an increase to incentive compensation, partly due to a partial reversal of incentive compensation in 2022, an increase in stock-based compensation, a general increase in base wages and commissions, due in part to the full year impact of the acquisition of the business and assets of the Hockley & O’Donnell Insurance Agency, an increase in pension expense, a partial reversal of expenses in 2022 related to loan originations, and an increase in ACNB Bank’s supplemental executive retirement plan and split dollar life insurance expenses. Professional services increased $234 thousand driven primarily by an increase in recruiting, external audit and consulting expenses. Marketing and corporate relations increased $313 thousand driven primarily by an increase of $283 thousand related to the rebranding of ACNB Bank’s Maryland banking locations. FDIC and regulatory expense increased $260 thousand as a result of a higher FDIC assessment due to changes in the composition of ACNB bank’s balance sheet. Other expense increased $744 thousand driven primarily by the write-off of an investment in a partnership, an increase in director expenses, a mark-to-market loss on an SBIC fund and internet banking expenses.

Loans and Asset Quality

Total loans outstanding were $1.63 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $12.0 million, or 0.7%, from September 30, 2023 and an increase of $89.4 million, or 5.8%, from December 31, 2022. The increase in both periods was driven primarily by growth in the commercial loan portfolio in our core markets.

Asset quality metrics continue to be stable. The provision for credit losses was $786 thousand and the provision for unfunded commitments was a reversal of $242 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to a provision for credit losses of $250 thousand and the provision for unfunded commitments was a reversal of $171 thousand for three months ended September 30, 2023 and no provision for credit losses or unfunded commitments for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Non-performing loans were $4.2 million, or 0.26%, of total loans at December 31, 2023 compared to $3.6 million, or 0.22%, of total loans at September 30, 2023 and $3.9 million, or 0.25%, of total loans at December 31, 2022. The increase in the provision for credit losses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and non-performing loans at December 31, 2023 compared to the prior quarter was driven by one commercial and industrial relationship and was not indicative of a general weakness in the overall loan portfolio. Annualized net charge-offs for the three months ended December 31, 2023 were 0.02% of total average loans compared to 0.03% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 0.02% for three months ended December 31, 2022.

Deposits and Borrowings

Total deposits were $1.86 billion at December 31, 2023. Deposits decreased by $89.5 million, or 4.6%, since September 30, 2023 and decreased by $337.2 million, or 15.3%, from December 31, 2022. The decrease of $89.5 million compared to September 30, 2023 was driven by an outflow of municipal deposits of $41.7 million and a replacement of $30.0 million of brokered deposits with long-term borrowings. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, ACNB Bank restrained deposit rates for the better part of the year despite an increase in market interest rates and an increase in rates by competitors. As a result, total deposits declined during 2023 as customers sought higher yielding alternative deposit and investment products.

Total borrowings were $252.2 million at December 31, 2023, an increase of $98.8 million compared to September 30, 2023. The increase in borrowings was driven primarily by the outflow of municipal deposits and replacement of brokered deposits. Total borrowings increased $189.2 million from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2023 to fund loan growth and deposit outflows during that period. The average rate on total long-term borrowings was 4.77% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to 4.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 4.56% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, the average rate on total long-term borrowings was 4.76% compared to 3.97% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Stockholders’ Equity, Dividends and Share Repurchases

Total stockholders’ equity was $277.5 million at December 31, 2023 compared to $255.6 million at September 30, 2023 and $245.0 million at December 31, 2022. Tangible book value1 per share was $26.44, $23.80 and $22.41 at December 31, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

On January 23, 2024, the Board of Directors approved and declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of ACNB Corporation common stock payable on March 15, 2024, to shareholders of record as of March 1, 2024. This per share amount reflects a $0.02, or 7.1%, increase over the same quarter of 2023.

ACNB repurchased 13,838 shares of ACNB common stock during the three months ended December 31, 2023 at a cost of $452 thousand. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, ACNB repurchased 61,066 shares of ACNB common stock at a cost of $2.0 million.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

Note: The Corporation has presented the following non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation’s results of operations and financial condition. These non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation’s industry. Investors should recognize that the Corporation’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other corporations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
