Noninterest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 of $16.6 million was $0.7 million, or 4.1%, above prior quarter and $0.4 million, or 2.7%, above prior year same quarter. The variance quarter over quarter was primarily the result of increases in net securities gains ($0.6 million) and net gains on the sale of fixed assets ($0.5 million), partially offset by decreased deposit related fees ($0.6 million). Year over year increases for the quarter in trust revenue ($0.5 million), bank owned life insurance revenue ($0.3 million), and net gains on the sale of fixed assets ($0.5 million) were partially offset by decreases in loan related fees ($0.5 million) and securities gains ($0.3 million). Noninterest income for the year 2025 of $63.6 million was a $1.1 million, or 1.7%, increase from prior year. Primary factors in the year over year increase were increases in trust revenue ($1.9 million), insurance commissions ($0.4 million), net gains on the sale of fixed assets ($0.5 million), partially offset by decreases in loan related fees ($0.9 million), securities gains ($0.3 million), and bank owned life insurance revenue ($0.8 million). The decrease in loan related fees resulted primarily from the fluctuation in the fair market value of our mortgage servicing rights. The variances in securities gains primarily resulted from changes in the valuation of our equity securities.

In an attempt to modernize our delivery channel in the Mt. Sterling Market, we are in the process of consolidating two of our branches into a newly constructed modern branch. During the fourth quarter, we recognized the sale of one of the branch locations being closed, along with a parking lot, resulting in a $0.5 million gain on the sale of fixed assets. We are also donating one of the branch locations, which resulted in a $0.4 million contribution expense.

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 of $36.5 million was $0.3 million, or 0.8%, below prior quarter but $2.7 million, or 7.9%, above prior year same quarter. The quarter over quarter decrease primarily resulted from decreases in data processing expense ($0.7 million) and repossession expense ($0.7 million), partially offset by increases in personnel expense ($0.2 million) and contributions ($0.6 million). The year over year increase for the quarter included increases in personnel expense ($1.7 million), occupancy and equipment expense ($0.4 million), taxes other than property and payroll ($0.3 million), and contributions ($0.6 million), partially offset by decreases in data processing expense ($0.3 million) and repossession expense ($0.3 million). Noninterest expense for the year 2025 of $143.1 million increased $12.1 million, or 9.3%, from prior year. We experienced increased expenses year over year in personnel ($6.1 million), data processing ($1.5 million), occupancy and equipment ($1.0 million), taxes other than property and payroll ($0.6 million), legal ($0.5 million), and contributions ($0.7 million). The year over year increase in personnel expense included increases in salaries ($2.1 million), bonuses and incentives ($1.9 million), and other employee benefits ($2.1 million). The increase in contribution expense was primarily a result of the $0.4 million contribution expense resulting from a donation of one of our Mt. Sterling branch locations discussed above in the Noninterest Income section.
