Union Bankshares Announces Earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026

and Declares Quarterly Dividend

Morrisville, VT April 15, 2026 - Union Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ - UNB) today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and declared a regular quarterly cash dividend. Consolidated net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $3.0 million, or $0.65 per share, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.55 per share, for the same period in 2025.

Balance Sheet

Total assets reached $1.63 billion as of March 31, 2026 from $1.52 billion as of March 31, 2025 representing growth of $100.3 million, or 6.6%. The increase was driven by increases in Federal funds sold and the securities portfolio. Federal funds sold and overnight deposits were $25.3 million as of March 31, 2026 compared to $8.9 million as of March 31, 2025. Investment securities increased to $315.6 million as of March 31, 2026 compared to $249.6 million as of March 31, 2025, an increase of $66.0 million, or 26.4% due to a strategic decision to pre-invest future cash flows from the portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2025. Total loan growth was modest during the comparison periods at $15.8 million or 1.3%, with outstanding balances of $1.18 billion as of March 31, 2026. Sales of qualifying mortgage loans were $24.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The allowance for credit losses on loans decreased 0.5%, to $8.07 million as of March 31, 2026 compared to $8.11 million as of March 31, 2025. Asset quality remains strong and management continues to assess credit risk exposure and adjusts reserves as needed. Management believes the current credit loss expense is appropriate given the composition and performance of the loan portfolio, and continues to monitor macroeconomic indicators that may impact borrower behavior and repayment capacity.

Total deposits were $1.20 billion as of March 31, 2026 compared to $1.81 billion as of March 31, 2025, and included purchased brokered deposits of $31.8 million as of March 31, 2026 and $30.5million as of March 31, 2025. Borrowed funds consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $311.0 million as of March 31, 2026 compared to $240.7 million as of March 31, 2025.

Stockholders' equity increased to $80.6 million as of March 31, 2026 compared to $70.1 million as of March 31, 2025, resulting in an increase in book value per share of 13.1% to $17.46 as of March 31, 2026 compared to $15.44 as of March 31, 2025. Accumulated other comprehensive loss as it relates to the fair market value adjustment for investment securities as of March 31, 2026 was $27.7 million compared to $31.4 million as of March 31, 2025 which also contributed to the improvement in book value per share.

Income Statement

Consolidated net income was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.5 million for the same period in 2025. Results increased $503 thousand for the comparison periods due to increases of $1.0 million net interest income and $54 thousand in noninterest income, and a decrease of $560 thousand in credit loss expense, partially offset by increases of $958 thousand in noninterest expenses and $178 thousand in income tax expense.

Interest income was $19.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $18.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $1.2 million, or 6.8%. The increase is attributable to a larger earning asset base and higher interest rates on those assets. Interest expense increased $210 thousand, or 2.6%, to $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $8.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 The increase is primarily due to increases in volume for customer deposits and borrowed funds and to a lesser extent an increase in average rates paid on these funding sources. These changes resulted in improvement in net interest income of $1.0 million, or 10.0% for the comparison periods.

Credit loss benefit of $325 thousand was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to credit loss expense of $235 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The reduction in credit loss expense during the comparison periods was primarily related to the size and mix of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2026.

Noninterest income was $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The sales of qualifying residential mortgages resulted in net gains of $350 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to net gains of $389 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Noninterest expenses increased $958 thousand, or 9.8%, to $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase during the comparison periods was due to increases of $486 thousand in salaries and wages, $184 thousand in employee benefits, $61 thousand in equipment expenses, and $232 thousand in other expenses. Income tax expense was $328 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $178 thousand compared to $150 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Dividend Declared

The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.36 per share for the quarter payable May 7, 2026 to shareholders of record as of April 27, 2026.
