NEWS RELEASE

SECURITY FEDERAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES INCREASE IN QUARTERLY AND YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS

Aiken, South Carolina (July 30, 2025) - Security Federal Corporation (the "Company") (OTCID: SFDL), the holding company for Security Federal Bank (the "Bank"), today announced earnings and financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

The Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $2.4 million, or $0.75 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.66 per common share, for the second quarter of 2024. Year-to-date net income available to common shareholders was $5.0 million, or $1.56 per common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3.9 million, or $1.20 per common share, during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in both quarterly and year-to-date net income available to common shareholders was primarily due to increases in net interest income and non-interest income, as well as a decrease in the provision for credit losses, which were partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense, provision for income taxes and an increase in the payment of preferred stock dividends during 2025.

***Second Quarter Financial Highlights***

● Net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 11.1%, to $11.3 million as interest income increased and interest expense decreased.

● Total interest income increased $629,000, or 3.3%, to $19.4 million while total interest expense decreased $502,000, or 5.8%, to $8.1 million during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in 2024. The increase in interest income was the result of a $1.1 million increase in interest income from loans and a $258,000 increase in income from other interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by a decrease in interest income from investments. Interest expense decreased during the second quarter of 2025 due to lower market interest rates and the payoff of outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve, which resulted in a lower average balance of these interest-bearing liabilities compared to the second quarter of 2024.

● Non-interest income increased $141,000, or 5.7%, to $2.6 million during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to a $106,000 increase in rental income and $62,000 gain on sale of land held for sale. During the first quarter of 2025, we purchased a multi-tenant property resulting in an increase to rental income. The property is intended to be the future site of a full-service branch.

● Non-interest expense increased $692,000, or 7.2%, to $10.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to increases in salaries and expenses for employee benefits, occupancy expense, debit card expenses and cloud services expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in expenses for advertising and depreciation and maintenance of equipment.
