Oregon Bancorp Announces Quarterly Earnings

Third quarter 2024 net earnings of $1.0 million, or $0.41 per common share
Quarterly return on average assets of 0.9% and return on average equity of 5.6%

SALEM, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 18, 2024-- Oregon Bancorp, Inc. (OTCBB: ORBN) (the “Company”), parent company of Willamette Valley Bank, reported net income for the third quarter of $1,017,000 and $0.41 per common share. The Company’s quarterly return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.9% and 5.6%, respectively. This compares to $801,000 in net income and $0.32 per common share outstanding for the quarter ending June 30, 2024.

The Company’s balance sheet expanded by $16.0 million in assets during the quarter. This was largely the result of a $31.8 million increase in deposits that improved balance sheet liquidity and reduced FHLB borrowings. The Company’s net interest margin also increased from 3.4% to 3.5% during the third quarter. Residential loan origination volume decreased during the quarter from $75 million to $63 million. Bank asset quality and capital remain strong and the Board of Directors distributed a $0.20 per share quarterly dividend on October 15, 2024.

Ryan Dempster, President and CEO, commented, “The Federal Reserve recently reduced interest rates as a result of positive reports on inflation and slowing labor market. This led to reduced borrowing rates and improved residential loan application volume. Overall, we are pleased with our quarterly financial results which are the best since the second quarter of 2023.”
