**Union Bankshares Announces Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025** 

**and Declares Quarterly Dividend**

***Morrisville, VT July 16, 2025*** - Union Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ - UNB) today announced results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and declared a regular quarterly cash dividend. Consolidated net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $2.4 million, or $0.53 per share, compared to $2.0 million, or $0.45 per share, for the same period in 2024, and $4.9 million, or $1.08 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.4 million, or $0.98 per share, for the same period in 2024.

**Balance Sheet**

Total assets were $1.48 billion as of June 30, 2025 compared to $1.40 billion as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $81.9 million, or 5.9%. Loan growth was the primary driver of the increase in total assets with total loans increasing $99.8 million, or 9.8%, to reach $1.11 billion as of June 30, 2025 including $9.0 million in loans held for sale, compared to $1.01 billion as of June 30, 2024, with $6.2 million in loans held for sale. Despite the economic uncertainty in the future, asset quality remains strong with minimal past due loans and net recoveries of $5 thousand and $6 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

In addition to the balance sheet growth in loans, qualifying residential loans of $31.0 million and $56.8 million were sold to the secondary market for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to sales of $19.3 million and $41.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.

Total deposits were $1.10 billion as of June 30, 2025 compared to deposits of $1.05 billion as of June 30, 2024, and included purchased brokered deposits of $65.3 million and $65.0 million for the respective periods. Borrowed funds consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $270.7 million as of June 30, 2025 compared to $212.1 million as of June 30, 2024. There were also $35.0 million in advances from the Federal Reserve's Bank Term Funding Program outstanding as of June 30, 2024.

The Company had total equity capital of $71.3 million and a book value per share of $15.66 as of June 30, 2025 compared to $64.0 million and a book value of $14.16 per share as of June 30, 2024. Total equity capital is reduced by accumulated other comprehensive loss as it relates to the fair market value adjustment for investment securities. Accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2025 was $31.2 million compared to $35.2 million as of June 30, 2024.

**Income Statement**

Consolidated net income was $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $376 thousand, or 18.6%. Interest income increased $2.2 million, or 13.1%, to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to an increase in yield on earning assets and an increase in volume for the comparison periods. Similarly, interest expense increased $1.2 million, or 17.1%, to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to an increase in rates paid on customer deposits and to a lesser extent an increase in volumes. As a result of these changes during the comparison periods, net interest income increased $962 thousand, or 10.1%.

Credit loss expense of $221 thousand was recorded for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $388 thousand recorded for the second quarter of 2024. The credit loss expense was primarily related to the growth and mix of the loan portfolio at both June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024. Management continues to assess the adequacy of the Allowance for Credit Losses quarterly.

Noninterest income was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Noninterest expenses increased $706 thousand, or 7.2%, to $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $9.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase during the comparison period was due to increases of $311 thousand in salaries and wages, $340 thousand in employee benefits, $2 thousand in occupancy expenses, and $83 thousand in equipment expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $31 thousand in other expenses. Income tax expense was $102 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $41 thousand compared to income tax expense of $61 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

**Dividend Declared**

The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.36 per share for the quarter payable August 7, 2025 to shareholders of record as of July 26, 2025.
