United Bancshares, Inc.
Quarterly Report
June 30, 2025

Shareholders, Clients, and Team Members:

I am pleased to report that your Company continued to see strong results for the first half of 2025, reporting $5.9 million in net income, which was $1.99/share and 16.56% return on average tangible shareholder equity. During the first half, the Company also reported $22.3 million in loan growth (5.82% annualized) and $14.5 million (2.96% annualized) in core deposit growth (excluding the deposit fluctuations from the Ohio Treasurer's Homebuyer Plus matching deposits). Net interest margin also improved to 3.71% from 3.12% from the same period in 2024. While credit quality remained stable, the Company expensed $235,000 to provision for credit losses primarily as the result of the noted loan growth.

Trading of our shares (UBOH) on OTCQX during the second quarter was steady. The average close during the quarter was $26.71 with a high close of $27.99 and a low close of $24.40. Additionally, the Company was able to repurchase 20,145 shares during the second quarter. We continue to believe that selectively repurchasing our shares at attractive pricing creates long-term value and liquidity for our shareholders. As a result, the Company has repurchased 369,321 shares at an average price of $21.41 during the period of June 2022 through June 2025.

As a result of these successes, the Board of Directors declared a $0.23 per share quarterly dividend, payable on September 15th for shareholders of record on August 29th. The dividend is 21.9% of the reported net income for the second quarter of 2025.

I am also pleased to report implementation of an all-new digital platform for our clients continues with an expected rollout in the first quarter of 2026, increased usage of our 7am7pm live teller access at all our locations, and the addition of incredible new team members with significant experience and compatible cultural approaches in our commercial, retail and operational areas. We continue to be blessed by the countless people who have chosen to serve or be served by The Union Bank Company.

The continued accomplishments of your Company are the result of the ongoing efforts of the Company's resolute team members and Board of Directors in applying our strong corporate values of respect for and accountability to our shareholders, clients, colleagues, and communities. As always, your ongoing support and the trust you have placed in us is appreciated.

Respectfully,

Brian D. Young
President & CEO
