Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts, but rather statements based on the Company’s current expectations regarding its business strategies, intended results and future performance. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends” and similar expressions. Management’s ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results include, but are not limited to, the following:
• General and local economic conditions;
• Our ability to realize the expected cost savings and other efficiencies related to our branch optimization and operational efficiency initiatives;
• Changes in market interest rates, deposit flows, demand for loans, real estate values and competition;
• Competitive products and pricing;
• The ability of our customers to make scheduled loan payments;
• Loan delinquency rates and trends;
• Our ability to manage the risks involved in our business;
• Our ability to integrate the operations of businesses we acquire;
• Our ability to control costs and expenses;
• Inflation, market and monetary fluctuations;
• Changes in federal and state legislation and regulation applicable to our business;
• Actions by our competitors; and
• Other factors disclosed in the Company’s periodic reports as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

Overview
The following discussion and analysis is presented to assist in the understanding and evaluation of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. It is intended to complement the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction therewith. The detailed discussion focuses on our consolidated financial condition as of June 30, 2023, compared to the consolidated financial condition as of December 31, 2022 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities. Our results of operations also are affected by our provisions for loan losses, noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income consists primarily of fees and service charges on deposit accounts, insurance commissions, income from bank-owned life insurance and other income. Noninterest expense consists primarily of expenses related to salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, contracted services, legal and professional fees, advertising, deposit and general insurance and other expenses.
Financial institutions like us, in general, are significantly affected by economic conditions, competition, and the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders, interest rate conditions, and funds availability. Our operations and lending are principally concentrated in southwestern Pennsylvania and Ohio Valley market areas.
Explanation of Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information in understanding our underlying results of operations or financial position and our business and performance trends as they facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the financial services industry. Non-GAAP adjusted items impacting the Company's financial performance are identified to assist investors in providing a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business and in analyzing the Company’s operating results on the same basis as that applied by management. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of our business and performance, they should not be considered an alternative to GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable with similar non-GAAP measures which may be presented by other companies. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found herein.
The interest income on interest-earning assets, net interest rate spread and net interest margin are presented on a fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax benefit of income on certain tax-exempt loans and securities using the federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0%. We believe the presentation of net interest income on a FTE basis ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice.
The following table reconciles net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin on a FTE basis for the periods indicated:

Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP measure calculated based on tangible common equity divided by period-end common shares outstanding. We believe this non-GAAP measure serves as a useful tool to help evaluate the strength and discipline of the Company's capital management strategies and as an additional, conservative measure of the Company’s total value.

Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition Analysis
Assets
Total assets increased $23.8 million, or 1.7%, to $1.43 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $1.41 billion at December 31, 2022.
Cash and Securities
• Cash and due from banks decreased $25.6 million, or 24.7%, to $78.1 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $103.7 million at December 31, 2022, due to loan growth.
• Securities decreased $8.6 million, or 4.5%, to $181.4 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $190.1 million at December 31, 2022. The securities balance was primarily impacted by $8.1 million of repayments on mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligation securities and a $332,000 decrease in the market val ue in the equity securities portfolio, which is primarily comprised of bank stocks.
Loans, Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) and Credit Quality
• Total loans increased $51.3 million, or 4.9%, to $1.10 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $1.05 billion at December 31, 2022. Loan growth was driven by increases in commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate and residential mortgages of $32.2 million, $21.8 million, and $7.8 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in consumer loans of $12.1 million. Growth in commercial and industrial loans included the purchase of $8.9 million of syndicated loans.
• The ACL - Loans was $10.7 million at June 30, 2023 and $12.8 million at December 31, 2022. As a result, the ACL - Loans to total loans was 0.97% at June 30, 2023 compared to 1.22% at December 31, 2022. The change in the ACL -Loans was primarily due to the Company's adoption of CECL. At adoption, the Company decreased its ACL - Loans by $3.4 million. Contributing to the change in ACL - Loans was a prior year charge-off of $2.7 million and qualitative factors that significantly impacted the incurred loss model driven by historical activity compared to the newly adopted CECL methodology that is centered around using a forecast approach.
• Net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $96,000, or 0.04% of average loans on an annualized basis. Net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $2.5 million, or 1.01% of average loans on an annualized basis primarily due to the aforementioned $2.7 million charge-off of a commercial and industrial loan. Net recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $660,000 primarily due to recoveries totaling $750,000 related to the prior year charged-off loan. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $2.5 million.
• Nonperforming loans, which includes nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more, were $4.1 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $5.8 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease of $1.7 million was due to ten loans totaling $1.7 million being moved from nonaccrual to accrual status during the current period. Nonperforming loans to total loans ratio was 0.37% at June 30, 2023 compared to 0.55% at December 31, 2022.
Other
• Intangible assets decreased $891,000, or 25.6%, to $2.6 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $3.5 million at December 31, 2022 primarily due to amortization expense recognized during the period.
• Accrued interest and other assets increased $5.6 million, or 26.8%, to $26.7 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $21.1 million at December 31, 2022 due to the sale of a $2.0 million syndicated loan which was sold but not yet settled at the end of the period, and increases in accounts receivable for Exchange Underwriters, income taxes receivable and BOLI death benefit claims receivable $853,000, $761,000 and $664,000.
Liabilities
Total liabilities increased $17.4 million, or 1.3%, to $1.32 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $1.30 billion at December 31, 2022.
Deposits
• Total deposits decreased $5.2 million to $1.26 billion as of June 30, 2023 compared to $1.27 billion at December 31, 2022. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased $62.8 million and time deposits increased $60.4 million, while non interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $74.3 million, money market deposits decreased $23.3 million and savings deposits decreased $30.8 million. The increase in interest-bearing demand deposits is primarily the result of higher interest rates attracting more customers and/or additional deposits from existing customers while higher time deposits resulted from the offering of a higher-rate certificate of deposit product. FDIC insured deposits totaled approximately 61.1% of total deposits while an additional 16.5% of deposits were collateralized with investment securities at June 30, 2023.

Borrowings
• Long-term borrowings increased $20.0 million, or 136.6%, to $34.7 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $14.6 million at December 31, 2022. During the second quarter, the Bank entered into $20.0 million of FHLB advances for a term of 24 months at 4.92%, the proceeds of which were utilized to match fund originations within the Bank's commercial and industrial loan portfolio.
• Short-term borrowings decreased $8.1 million, or 100.0%, as there were no short-term borrowings at June 30, 2023, compared to $8.1 million at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, short-term borrowings were comprised entirely of securities sold under agreements to repurchase. These accounts were transitioned into other deposit products and account for a portion of the interest-bearing demand deposit increase.
Accrued Interest Payable and Other Liabilities
• Accrued interest payable and other liabilities increased $10.6 million, or 139.8%, to $18.2 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $7.6 million at December 31, 2022 primarily due to the purchase of $8.9 million of syndicated loans which were unfunded at the end of the period.
Stockholders’ Equity

Net interest margin (GAAP) increased to 3.29% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 3.12% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Fully Tax Equivalent (FTE) net interest margin (Non-GAAP) increased 17 basis points (bps) to 3.30% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 3.13% for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Interest and Dividend Income
• Interest and dividend income increased $4.2 million, or 38.7%, to $15.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $11.0 million the three months ended June 30, 2022.
◦ Interest income on loans increased $3.7 million, or 37.9%, to $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The average balance of loans increased $71.5 million to $1.08 billion from $1.01 billion, generating $724,000 of additional interest income on loans, and the average yield increased 112 bps to 5.00% compared to 3.88% causing a $3.0 million increase in interest income on loans.
◦ Interest income on interest-earning deposits at other banks increased $599,000, to $721,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as the average yield increased 443 bps, partially offset by a decrease of $1.9 million in average balances.

Interest Expense
• Interest expense increased $3.3 million, or 413.6%, to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $795,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Rising market interest rates led to the repricing of interest-bearing demand and money market deposits and a shift in deposits from non interest-bearing to interest-bearing demand and time deposits and resulted in a 137 bps, or 466.9%, increase in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This accounted for a $3.2 million increase in interest expense. Additionally, interest-bearing deposit balances increased $104.5 million, or 12.7%, to $930.1 million as of June 30, 2023 compared to $825.6 million as of June 30, 2022, accounting for a $70,000 increase in interest expense.

Provision for Credit Losses. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The provision for credit losses recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $432,000 and was required primarily due to loan growth coupled with a modeled slowdown in loan prepayment speeds. This compared to $3.8 million in provision for credit losses recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the charge-off of a $2.7 million commercial and industrial loan to a borrower that ceased operations.
Noninterest Income . Noninterest income increased $164,000, or 7.8%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily related to a $142,000 increase in commercial and personal insurance commissions and a decrease in net losses on securities of $99,000.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $1.1 million, or 13.0%, to $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Salaries and benefits increased $692,000, or 15.2%, to $5.2 million primarily due to merit increases, revenue producing staff additions and associated $160,000 of recruiting costs, and $80,000 of severance costs related to the discontinuation of indirect automobile lending. Data processing expense increased $272,000, or 61.0%, to $718,000, due to increased ongoing costs related to the fourth quarter 2022 core conversion and equipment expense increased $101,000 or 55.5%, to $283,000, due to costs associated with the implementation of new interactive teller machines.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense was $699,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to and income tax benefit of $44,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This change was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $74,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

◦ Interest expense on deposits increased $5.2 million, or 459.6%, to $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Rising market interest rates led to the repricing of interest-bearing demand and money market deposits and a shift in deposits from non interest-bearing to interest-bearing demand and time deposits and resulted in a 113 bps increase in average cost of interest-bearing deposits compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This accounted for a $5.1 million increase in interest expense. Additionally, interest-bearing deposits increased $76.1 million, or 9.1%, accounting for a $115,000 increase in interest expense.

Rate Volume Analysis. The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated. FTE yield adjustments have been made for tax exempt loan and securities income utilizing a marginal federal income tax rate of 21%. The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume. The total column represents the sum of the prior columns.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.
Other than loan commitments and standby and performance letters of credit, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a significant current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors. Refer to Note 6 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this report for a summary of commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Management
Liquidity. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and maturities, calls and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are typically predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
The Company regularly adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon its assessment of expected loan demand, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and the objectives of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits with other banks and short- and intermediate-term securities. The Company believes that it had sufficient liquidity at June 30, 2023 to satisfy its short- and long-term liquidity needs.
The Company’s most liquid assets are cash and due from banks, which totaled $78.1 million at June 30, 2023. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. Unpledged securities, which provide an additional source of liquidity, totaled $10.1 million at June 30, 2023. In addition, at June 30, 2023, the Company had the ability to borrow up to $466.1 million from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, of which $444.1 million is available. The Company also has the ability to borrow up to $115.9 million from the FRB through its Borrower-In-Custody line of credit agreement and the Company also maintains multiple line of credit arrangements with various unaffiliated banks totaling $50.0 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, currently these credit arrangements have remained unused.
At June 30, 2023, $79.1 million, or 46.7% of total time deposits mature within one year. If these time deposits do not remain with the Company, the Company will be required to seek other sources of funds. Depending on market conditions, the Company may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than it currently pays on these time deposits. The Company believes, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of its time deposits will remain with it, either as time deposits or as other deposit products. The Company has the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered. The Bank's current deposit portfolio is 61.1% insured by the FDIC, and with additional coverage of 16.5% from the Bank's investment securities; of the total deposits held at the Bank only 22.4% are uninsured.
We are committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position; therefore, we monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. The marginal cost of new funding, however, whether from deposits or borrowings from the FHLB, will be carefully considered as we monitor our liquidity needs. Therefore, in order to minimize our cost of funds, we may consider additional borrowings from the FHLB in the future.
CB Financial is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity to pay any dividends to its shareholders and for other corporate purposes. Its primary source of liquidity is dividend payments it receives from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends to CB Financial is subject to regulatory limitations. At June 30, 2023, CB Financial (on an unconsolidated, stand-alone basis) had liquid assets of $16.0 million. The ability to pay future dividends or conduct stock repurchases may be limited under applicable banking regulations and regulatory policies due to expected losses for future periods and/or the inability to upstream funds from the Bank to the Company as a result of lower income or regulatory capital levels.
Capital Management. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, each must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
