  • MIL-OSI USA: S. 237, Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act of 2025

    Source: US Congressional Budget Office

    Bill Summary

    S. 237 would expand eligibility for death, disability, and education benefits provided by the Public Safety Officer’s Benefit (PSOB) program to public safety officers and their beneficiaries if an officer dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled as a direct result of a cancer covered under the bill. S. 237 would apply retroactively to officers who die or become disabled on or after January 1, 2020. The bill would require the Department of Justice (DOJ) to review the list of cancers covered by the bill at least once every three years.

    S. 237 also would extend the deadline to file a claim for benefits under the PSOB program for officers and their beneficiaries for officers who die or become permanently and totally disabled from COVID-19. Under current law, the deadline to file such a claim was May 11, 2023, when the public health emergency declared during the coronavirus pandemic ended.

    Estimated Federal Cost

    The estimated budgetary effect of S. 237 is shown in Table 1. The costs of the legislation fall within budget function 750 (administration of justice).

    Basis of Estimate

    CBO assumes that the bill will be enacted near the end of fiscal year 2025. The estimate is based on CBO’s analysis of cancer incidence and mortality among the general population of the United States and a review of the medical literature related to cancer incidence and mortality among public safety officers, including firefighters. The estimate is also based on CBO’s projections of the number of deaths among public safety officers that are likely to be related to cancer and the number of officers or their beneficiaries who apply for and receive benefits under the PSOB program.

    Background

    The PSOB program is administered by DOJ to provide cash benefits to federal, state, and local public safety officers and their beneficiaries in the event of death or permanent and total disability resulting from physical injuries and certain mental health conditions, such as post-traumatic stress disorder. Education benefits are also available to eligible spouses and children of officers who die or become disabled in the line of duty. Public safety officers include those working in law enforcement, firefighters, emergency management, and emergency medical services.

    The program already provides benefits to World Trade Center responders and their beneficiaries who die or become disabled from cancer from exposure to a carcinogen after the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. CBO is unaware of the program approving any death or disability claim related to cancer that does not stem from attacks on September 11, 2001.

    Eligibility Under the Bill

    Under S. 237, an exposure to a carcinogen would qualify as an injury in the line of duty if an officer later dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled as a direct result of cancer. The bill would direct DOJ to presume that a qualifying injury caused the death or disability if the officer:

    • Was exposed to a carcinogen while in the line of duty;
    • Served for at least five years before being diagnosed with cancer; and
    • Received a diagnosis of cancer within 15 years of leaving service.

    The presumption would not apply if DOJ determines, based on competent medical evidence, that the exposure to a carcinogen was not a substantial factor in an officer’s death or disability.

    Direct Spending

    The PSOB program pays a one-time death benefit to spouses and children or other designated beneficiaries of officers who die in the line of duty. The cost of those benefits is classified in the budget as direct spending. In 2025, the one-time benefit is $448,575; under current law, that amount increases each year to account for inflation.

    Cancer Claims. CBO expects that most relatives of potentially eligible officers would apply for benefits. Based on information from DOJ and other similar programs, such as the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund, CBO estimates that about 75 percent of claims for cancer-related deaths among public safety officers would ultimately result in benefits being paid to family members or designated beneficiaries. CBO expects that firefighters would account for most claims under the bill.

    Using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on cancer mortality among the general population and a review of medical literature regarding cancer incidence and mortality among firefighters, CBO estimates that, on average, about 40 claims would be filed annually over the 2025-2035 period.

    S. 237 also would require benefits to be awarded for cancer deaths occurring between January 1, 2020, and the date of enactment. CBO estimates that about 200 claims would be submitted for officers who died from cancer during that period and that those claims would be filed within three years of enactment.

    COVID-19 Claims. Additionally, the bill would extend by three years the deadline to file a claim for death benefits for spouses, children, or other beneficiaries of officers who die from COVID-19. Under current law, an officer is presumed to be eligible by DOJ if the officer was diagnosed with COVID-19 within 45 days of the last day of duty and medical evidence indicates that the officer had the virus or complications from the virus at the time of death. Under current law, the deadline to file such a claim was May 11, 2023, when the public health emergency related to the coronavirus pandemic was lifted. Using information from DOJ about the number of those claims it received between 2020 and 2023 and data from the CDC on COVID-19 mortality, CBO estimates that about 150 claims would be submitted for officers who die from COVID-19.

    In total, CBO estimates that under the bill, about 765 claims would be filed over the 2025-2035 period. Based on the amount of time CBO estimates that it would take DOJ to process each eligible claim, CBO estimates that about 530 claims would be approved for benefits over the next decade under S. 237. (About 30 claims filed during that period would be approved after 2035.) Accounting for expected increases in inflation, CBO estimates that enacting S. 237 would increase direct spending by $255 million over the 2025-2035 period.

    Spending Subject to Appropriation

    By expanding the scope of qualifying deaths and injuries, S. 237 also would increase the number of claimants eligible for disability and education benefits under the PSOB program. Spending for those benefits is subject to the availability of appropriated funds. DOJ also would incur administrative costs to implement the bill. In total, CBO estimates that implanting S. 237 would cost $59 million over the 2025-2030 period (see Table 2). That spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

    Disability Benefits. Under current law, the PSOB program pays benefits for permanent and total disability resulting from injuries suffered in the line of duty. Under current law, claimants receive a one-time benefit that is the same amount as the death benefit ($448,575 in 2025), which increases each year to account for inflation. In total, CBO estimates that the cost of disability benefits under S. 237 would be $24 million over the 2025-2030 period.

    Cancer Claims. S. 237 would designate an exposure to a carcinogen as an injury in the line of duty if an officer later becomes permanently disabled as a direct result of cancer. Using information from DOJ about the historical number of claims, CBO expects that fewer claims for disability benefits would be filed under the bill than claims for death benefits. On that basis, CBO estimates that one claim for disability benefits would be filed for every three claims for death benefits. Additionally, based on conversations with DOJ and subject matter experts, CBO expects that most officers affected by cancer would not meet the permanently and totally disabled threshold. Based on historical approval rates for disability-related claims, CBO estimates that about 50 percent of claims for disability claims would ultimately be approved.

    Under the bill, CBO estimates that about 120 claims for disability benefits related to cancer would be filed over the 2025-2030 period. Using information from DOJ about the time it takes to process each claim, CBO estimates that about 50 claims would be approved over the same period. (About 10 additional claims filed during the period would be approved after 2030.)

    COVID-19 Claims. S. 237 also would extend by three years the deadline to file a claim for benefits under the PSOB program for officers who become permanently and totally disabled from COVID-19. Using data from DOJ about the number of those claims filed and approved over the 2020-2023 period, CBO estimates that under S. 237 fewer than five claims would be approved for officers who become disabled from COVID-19.

    Education Benefits. Under current law, the spouse or children of a public safety officer who dies or becomes permanently disabled from physical injuries and certain mental health conditions may also be eligible for education benefits to cover tuition, fees, books, supplies and room and board. The monthly benefit for a full-time student in 2025 is $1,536; that amount is adjusted each year for inflation. Under current law, the maximum duration of benefits is 45 months of full-time education or a proportionate duration of part-time education.

    Historical data from the PSOB program indicate that about three claims for education benefits have been approved for every two claims that have been approved for death and disability benefits. On that basis, CBO estimates that about 360 claims stemming from death benefits and about 50 claims stemming from disability benefits will be approved over the 2025-2030 period under S. 237. Using information about the time it takes to process claims for education benefits, CBO estimates that about 650 people will receive benefits over the 2025-2030 period under the bill. In total, CBO estimates that those benefits would cost $30 million over the 2025-2030 period. Those outlays reflect the historical spending patterns for such claims.

    Administrative Costs. As discussed above, implementing S. 237 would require DOJ to review more than 150 additional claims annually under the bill. Using information from the agency about the number of staff required to process claims under current law, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would require an additional five people each year to process claims and review the list of eligible cancers at a cost of $1 million annually. In total, CBO estimates that DOJ would incur $5 million in administrative costs over the 2025-2030 period.

    Uncertainty

    CBO’s cost estimate for S. 237 is subject to significant uncertainty in several areas:

    • Identifying public safety officers’ rate of incidence and deaths from cancer and COVID-19;
    • Estimating the number of people who would be eligible to file claims for benefits under the bill;
    • Calculating the proportion of claims that DOJ would determine to be eligible, which is affected by the latency periods for different cancers and other circumstances specific to each officer’s medical history and lifestyle; and
    • Anticipating the timing of submissions and the amount of time required to review applications and process claims.

    CBO strives for estimates that are in the middle of possible outcomes and each factor in the estimate could be higher or lower than CBO estimates. As a result, enacting the bill could result in higher or lower costs than CBO estimates.

    Pay-As-You-Go Considerations

    The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 establishes budget-reporting and enforcement procedures for legislation affecting direct spending or revenues. The net changes in outlays that are subject to those pay-as-you-go procedures are shown in Table 3.

  • MIL-OSI: Hanmi Reports 2025 Second Quarter Results

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LOS ANGELES, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hanmi Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: HAFC, or “Hanmi”), the parent company of Hanmi Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2025.

    Net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $15.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared with $17.7 million, or $0.58 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2025. The return on average assets for the second quarter of 2025 was 0.79% and the return on average equity was 7.48%, compared with a return on average assets of 0.94% and a return on average equity of 8.92% for the first quarter of 2025.

    CEO Commentary

    “Hanmi delivered solid performance in the second quarter, highlighted by strong operational metrics,” said Bonnie Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We further expanded our net interest margin to 3.07%, and grew preprovision net revenue by 3.7%, primarily driven by lower funding costs.”

    “Loans grew 1.6% on an annualized basis with healthy C&I and residential mortgage loan production. Our relationship-based model continued to drive deposit growth, up 1.7% for the quarter. Noninterest-bearing demand deposit balances remained strong, accounting for over 30% of total deposits.”

    “Our second quarter net income was impacted by credit loss expense; however, importantly, asset quality remained excellent with significant improvement from the prior quarter. Criticized loans, nonaccrual loans and delinquent loans all declined notably. Looking to the second half of the year, we are encouraged by the strength of our loan pipeline and remain focused on deepening client relationships, expanding our market presence and leveraging our balance sheet to deliver sustainable long-term growth.”

    Second Quarter 2025 Highlights:

    • Second quarter net income was $15.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared with $17.7 million, or $0.58 per diluted share in the first quarter; the decline was driven by credit loss expense of $7.6 million.
    • Preprovision net revenue1 grew 3.7%, or $1.0 million, reflecting a 3.7% increase in net interest income, a five basis point increase in the net interest margin, a 4.5% increase in noninterest income and well-managed noninterest expenses with the efficiency ratio remaining unchanged at 55.7%.
    • Asset quality improved significantly from the first quarter – criticized loans dropped 71.8% to 0.74% of total loans reflecting $85.3 million in loan upgrades of two CRE loans, a $20.0 million loan payment, and an $8.6 million loan charge-off; nonaccrual loans fell 26.8% to 0.41% of total loans reflecting the loan charge-off; and loan delinquencies declined to 0.17% of total loans.
    • Loans receivables were $6.31 billion at June 30, 2025, up 0.4% from the end of the first quarter of 2025; loan production for the second quarter was $329.6 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 7.10%.
    • Deposits were $6.73 billion at June 30, 2025, up 1.7% from the end of the first quarter of 2025; noninterest-bearing demand deposits at June 30, 2025 were 31.3% of total deposits.
    • Hanmi’s capital position remains strong with the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets2 at 9.58% and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio at 12.12%; both essentially unchanged from the first quarter; tangible book value per share3 was $24.91.

    Results of Operations

    Net interest income for the second quarter was $57.1 million, up 3.7% from $55.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase reflected the benefit of lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities, a higher volume of interest-earning assets and one additional day in the quarter. Average interest-earning assets increased 1.2% while the average yield decreased by one basis point. Average loans receivable increased 1.1% while the average yield decreased by two basis points to 5.93%. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased 0.9% while the average rate paid declined seven basis points. Average interest-bearing deposits, however, increased 3.7% while the average rate paid declined by five basis points to 3.64%, primarily due to lower rates paid on time deposits. Average borrowings fell 66.5% while the average rate paid increased one basis point. 

    Net interest margin (taxable equivalent) for the second quarter was 3.07%, up five basis points from 3.02% for the first quarter of 2025. The increase in the net interest margin reflected principally the benefit from lower average borrowings and a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits in other banks.

    Credit loss expense for the second quarter was $7.6 million, compared with $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase in credit loss expense reflected the increase in net charge-offs as well as an increase in quantitative and qualitative estimated loss rates. Net charge-offs included an $8.6 million loan charge-off on the syndicated commercial real estate office loan designated as nonaccrual, with an associated specific allowance of $6.2 million, in the first quarter of 2025. Second quarter credit loss expense included a $7.5 million credit loss expense for loan losses and a $0.1 million credit loss expense for off-balance sheet items. First quarter credit loss expense included a $2.4 million credit loss expense for loan losses and a $0.3 million credit loss expense for off-balance sheet items.

    Noninterest income for the second quarter increased $0.4 million, or 4.5%, to $8.1 million from $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase on gains from the sale of SBA loans and an increase in bank-owned life insurance income of $0.4 million from a death benefit claim, partially offset by the absence of gain on sale of mortgage loans. Gain on sales of SBA loans were $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared with $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2025. The volume of SBA loans sold for the second quarter increased to $35.4 million from $32.2 million for the first quarter of 2025, while trade premiums were 7.61% for the second quarter of 2025 compared with 7.82% for the first quarter. There were no mortgage loans sales during the second quarter, compared with $10.0 million of mortgage loans sold at a 2.50% premium for the first quarter. Gains on mortgage loans sold were $0.2 million for the first quarter. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, $41.9 million of mortgage loans were sold at a 2.38% premium resulting in a gain of $0.7 million.

    Noninterest expense for the second quarter increased $1.3 million to $36.3 million from $35.0 million for the first quarter of 2025. Second quarter noninterest expense was up 3.9% sequentially due to increases in salaries and benefits, professional fees, advertising and promotion and all other operating expenses, partially offset by a $0.6 million gain on sale of other real estate owned. Salaries and benefits increased $1.1 million due to annual merit adjustments and lower capitalized salaries related to loan production. Professional fees increased $0.3 million due to new project activities and fees for services. Advertising and promotion increased $0.2 million primarily due to a new branch opening. All other operating expenses increased $0.4 million due to loan and deposit operating expenses. The efficiency ratio for the second quarter was 55.7%, unchanged from the first quarter of 2025.

    Asset Quality

    Loans 30 to 89 days past due and still accruing were 0.17% of loans at the end of the second quarter of 2025, compared with 0.28% at the end of the prior quarter.

    Criticized loans totaled $46.6 million at June 30, 2025, down from $164.9 million at the end of the prior quarter. The $118.3 million decrease resulted from a $105.7 million decrease in special mention loans, and a $12.6 million decrease in classified loans. The $105.7 million decrease in special mention loans included loan upgrades of $85.3 million of two commercial real estate loans, paydowns of $20.0 million and amortization of $0.7 million, offset by downgrades of $0.3 million. The $12.6 million decrease in classified loans resulted from $8.7 million of loan charge-offs (primarily due to the previously mentioned $8.6 million commercial real estate loan charge-off), $2.9 million of equipment financing charge-offs, $1.6 million of amortization/paydowns, $4.0 million of loan upgrades and, $0.2 million of payoffs, offset by $4.8 million in additions. Additions included newly classified equipment financing agreements of $2.4 million and loan downgrades of $2.4 million.

    Nonperforming loans were $26.0 million at June 30, 2025, down from $35.6 million at the end of the prior quarter. The $9.6 million decrease primarily reflected charge-offs of $11.6 million, $1.3 million in paydowns, loan upgrades of $1.0 million, and pay-offs of $0.2 million. Additions included $2.1 million of loans and $2.5 million of equipment financing agreements.

    Nonperforming assets were $26.0 million at June 30, 2025, down from $35.7 million at the end of the prior quarter. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.33% at June 30, 2025, and 0.46% at the end of the prior quarter.

    Gross charge-offs for the second quarter of 2025 were $12.4 million, compared with $3.2 million for the preceding quarter. The increase in gross charge-offs was primarily due to a $8.6 million charge-off on a commercial real estate loan designated as nonaccrual during the first quarter of 2025. Charge-offs during the second quarter also included $2.9 million on equipment financing agreements. Recoveries of previously charged-off loans were $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2025, which included $0.6 million of recoveries on equipment financing agreements. As a result, there were $11.4 million of net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.9 million for the prior quarter.

    The allowance for credit losses was $66.8 million at June 30, 2025, compared with $70.6 million at March 31, 2025. Collectively evaluated allowances increased $3.8 million and specific allowances for loans decreased $7.6 million. The decrease in specific allowances was a result of the previously mentioned $8.6 million charge-off. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to loans was 1.06% at June 30, 2025 and 1.12% at the end of the prior quarter.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

    Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets Ratio

    Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Hanmi’s capital strength. Tangible common equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Hanmi.

    The following table reconciles this non-GAAP performance measure to the GAAP performance measure for the periods indicated:

    Preprovision Net Revenue

    Preprovision net revenue is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP measure is used by management to measure Hanmi’s core operational performance, excluding the impact of provisions for loan losses. By isolating preprovision net revenue, management can better understand the Company’s profitability and make more informed strategic decisions. Preprovision net revenue is calculated adding income tax expense and credit loss expense to net income. Management believes this financial measure highlights the Company’s net revenue activities and operational efficiency, excluding unpredictable credit loss expense.

    The following table details the Company’s preprovision net revenue, which are non-GAAP measures, for the periods indicated:

    MIDDLEFIELD, Ohio, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Middlefield Banc Corp. (NASDAQ: MBCN) today reported financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

      ● Earnings per share increased 46.2% year-over-year to $0.76 per diluted share
      ● Asset quality improved from the 2024 fourth quarter with nonperforming assets to total assets decreasing by 32 basis points to 1.30%
      ● Net interest margin expanded 37 basis points to 3.88% and increased 19 basis points from the 2025 first quarter

    “The second quarter of 2025 was another strong quarter of growth, profitability and value creation for Middlefield,” stated Ronald L. Zimmerly, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer. “Total loans have increased at an 8.2% annualized rate since the beginning of the year to a record $1.58 billion, asset quality continued to improve sequentially, and our net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 expanded 37 basis points year-over-year to 3.88%.  These results led to strong growth in profitability during the quarter.  Net income also benefited from a $1.2 million net gain on the exchange of real estate associated with the relocation of our Westerville, Ohio branch.  Relocating our Westerville office is a great opportunity, supported by favorable demographics and underscores our multi-year strategy to expand our presence in the Central Ohio region. We expect our new Westerville branch to open in the second half of 2025.”

    “I am pleased by the strong start to 2025 and the direction we are headed.  We remain focused on investing in our platform, which includes upgrades to our technology infrastructure, adding new, experienced commercial bankers, and pursuing opportunities to expand Middlefield across our compelling Ohio markets.  As a result of these efforts and the contributions of our high-performing team, we expect additional loan and core deposit growth to benefit profitability throughout the remainder of 2025,” concluded Mr. Zimmerly.

    Income Statement
    Net interest income for the 2025 second quarter increased 15.6% to $17.4 million, compared to $15.1 million for the 2024 second quarter. The net interest margin for the 2025 second quarter was 3.88%, compared to 3.51% for the same period of 2024. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased 11.6% to $33.5 million, compared to $30.1 million for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to strong loan growth, a decrease in FHLB advances, and an overall decline in rates for deposits. Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was 3.79%, compared to 3.53% last year. 

    Noninterest income for the 2025 second quarter was $3.1 million, compared to $1.8 million for the same period the previous year. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, noninterest income increased $1.5 million to $5.0 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2024.  In April 2025, Middlefield completed an exchange of real estate with the City of Westerville, Ohio for a parcel of land that had a fair value of $1.5 million. In exchange, Middlefield transferred land and a building with related furnishings associated with its current branch located in Westerville, Ohio. The transferred branch had a net book value of $221,000. The exchange of real estate transaction resulted in a one-time, non-cash gain of $1.2 million.

    For the 2025 second quarter, noninterest expense was $13.7 million, compared to $11.9 million for the 2024 second quarter. Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $25.8 million, compared to $23.9 million for the same period in 2024. Noninterest expense for the 2025 second quarter included a $700,000 loss associated with recording a separate property located in Westerville, Ohio as held for sale.     

    Net income for the 2025 second quarter was $6.2 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, compared to $4.2 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $11.0 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, for the same period last year. 

    For the 2025 second quarter, pre-tax, pre-provision net income was $6.9 million, compared to $4.9 million for the same period of 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, pre-tax, pre-provision net income was $12.7 million, compared to $9.7 million for the same period last year.  (See non-GAAP reconciliation under the section “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations”.)

    Balance Sheet
    Total assets at June 30, 2025, increased 5.3% to a record $1.92 billion, compared to $1.83 billion at June 30, 2024. Total loans at June 30, 2025, were a record $1.58 billion, compared to $1.50 billion at June 30, 2024. The 5.6% year-over-year increase in total loans was primarily due to higher home equity lines of credit, commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, non-owner occupied, and owner occupied loans, partially offset by a reduction in construction and other loans and multifamily loans.

    The investment securities available-for-sale portfolio was $161.1 million at June 30, 2025, compared with $166.4 million at June 30, 2024.

    Total liabilities at June 30, 2025, increased 5.4% to $1.71 billion, compared to $1.62 billion at June 30, 2024. Total deposits at June 30, 2025, were $1.59 billion, compared to $1.47 billion at June 30, 2024. The 8.4% year-over-year increase in deposits was primarily due to growth in money market and interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by declines in savings deposit accounts. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits were 24.2% of total deposits at June 30, 2025, compared to 26.3% at June 30, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company had brokered deposits of $165.1 million, compared to $86.5 million at June 30, 2024.

    Michael C. Ranttila, Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Middlefield’s highly profitable financial model, disciplined loan pricing, and strong liquidity levels provides us with the flexibility to support both loan and operational growth. We continue to monitor our funding mix to support our loan portfolio at a reasonable cost, and such actions contributed to a seven-basis point reduction in our cost of funds since the beginning of the year.  Throughout the second half of 2025, we are focused on growing core deposits by improving the mix of commercial and industrial loans and growing treasury management relationships.”

    Stockholders’ Equity and Dividends

    At June 30, 2025, stockholders’ equity was $216.1 million, compared to $206.8 million at June 30, 2024. The 4.5% year-over-year increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily from higher retained earnings, partially offset by an increase in the unrealized losses on the available-for-sale investment portfolio. On a per-share basis, shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2025, was $26.74, compared to $25.63 at June 30, 2024.

    At June 30, 2025, tangible stockholders’ equity(1) was $174.6 million, compared to $164.3 million at June 30, 2024. On a per-share basis, tangible stockholders’ equity(1) was $21.60 at June 30, 2025, compared to $20.37 at June 30, 2024. (1)See non-GAAP reconciliation under the section “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations”.

    For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company declared cash dividends of $0.42 per share, totaling $3.4 million. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the Company increased the quarterly cash dividend by $0.01, or 5% from the previous year’s $0.20 per share quarterly cash dividend.  

    For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.  

    At June 30, 2025, the Company’s equity-to-assets ratio was 11.23%, compared to 11.31% at June 30, 2024.

    Asset Quality
    For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a recovery of credit losses of $411,000, compared to a recovery of credit losses of $49,000 for the same period of 2024.  

    Net recoveries were $227,000, or (0.03%) of average loans, annualized, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net recoveries of $97,000, or (0.01%) of average loans, annualized, for the same period of 2024.      

    Nonperforming loans at June 30, 2025, were $25.1 million, compared to $16.0 million at June 30, 2024. The year-over-year increase in nonperforming assets was primarily due to a $12.0 million loan moved to nonaccrual in the 2024 third quarter. The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025, stood at $22.3 million, or 1.41% of total loans, compared to $21.8 million, or 1.46% of total loans at June 30, 2024. The increase in the allowance for credit losses was mainly from changes in projected loss drivers, prepayment assumptions, curtailment expectations over the reasonable and supportable forecast period, and geographic footprint of unemployment data, as well as an overall increase in total loans.

    Mr. Ranttila continued, “Asset quality demonstrates the success of our disciplined approach to credit quality and risk management, as nonperforming assets to total assets have improved to 1.30% at June 30, 2025, compared to 1.56% at March 31, 2025, and 1.62% at December 31, 2024.  Over the past six months, non-performing assets declined by $4.9 million from $30.0 million at December 31, 2024, primarily as a result of the successful payoff of one previously disclosed non-accruing loan.  In addition, reductions in the reserve against individually analyzed loans as well as the reserve for unfunded commitments drove a $506,000 recovery for credit losses in the second quarter. We continue to expect stable economic activity across our Central, Western and Northeast Ohio markets that will support loan demand and asset quality throughout 2025.”

    Total revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $363.2 million, compared to $356.1 million in the first quarter of 2025. Our revenue in the second quarter of 2025 included $40.4 million of safe harbor revenue, compared to $54.3 million of safe harbor revenue in the first quarter. Our revenue in the United States for the second quarter of 2025 increased approximately 3%, compared to the first quarter. The increase was the result of seasonality partially offset by lower safe harbor revenue. Our revenue in Europe increased approximately 11% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to the first quarter. The increase in revenue was primarily due to higher microinverter and battery sales as we continued to ramp shipments of our IQ® Battery 5P™ with FlexPhase during the second quarter.

    Our non-GAAP gross margin was 48.6% in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 48.9% in the first quarter. Our non-GAAP gross margin, excluding net benefit from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), was 37.2% in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 38.3% in the first quarter. The reciprocal tariffs had a negative impact of approximately two percentage points on margins.

    Our non-GAAP operating expenses were $77.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $79.4 million in the first quarter. Our non-GAAP operating income was $98.6 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $94.6 million in the first quarter.

    We exited the second quarter of 2025 with $1.53 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and generated $26.6 million in cash flow from operations in the second quarter. Our capital expenditures were $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $14.6 million in the first quarter of 2025.

    In the second quarter of 2025, we repurchased 702,948 shares of our common stock at an average price of $42.67 per share for a total of approximately $30.0 million. We also spent approximately $3.0 million by withholding shares to cover taxes for employee stock vesting that reduced the diluted shares by 58,332 shares.

    During the second quarter of 2025, we shipped approximately 1.41 million microinverters from manufacturing facilities in the United States that we booked for 45X production tax credits. We continued to ship our IQ8HC™ Microinverters, IQ8P-3P™ Commercial Microinverters, and IQ® Battery 5Ps from these facilities, meeting domestic content requirements.

    We shipped a record 190.9 MWh of IQ Batteries in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 170.1 MWh in the first quarter. More than 11,700 installers worldwide are certified to install our IQ Batteries, compared to more than 10,900 installers worldwide in the first quarter of 2025. In addition, we have 210 MWh of batteries in our fleet currently enrolled in virtual power plant (VPP) programs globally.

    During the second quarter of 2025, we began shipping our fourth-generation Enphase Energy System, which includes the IQ® Battery 10C, IQ® Meter Collar, and IQ® Combiner 6C, to customers in the United States. The IQ Battery 10C is designed to be 30% more energy-dense, occupy 62% less wall space, and lower the cost of install compared to previous models. Together, these components simplify the entire backup installation process, enhance reliability, and provide greater value to homeowners. The IQ Meter Collar has now been approved by 29 U.S. utilities.

    We also ramped shipments of our IQ Battery with FlexPhase into more countries in Europe. This AC-coupled battery system supports both single-phase and three-phase homes, providing full backup capability and superior flexibility to meet diverse home energy needs.

    The IQ® EV Charger 2, our most advanced residential charger to date, is now shipping to 18 countries across Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. This smart charger is designed to work seamlessly with Enphase solar and battery systems or as a powerful standalone solution. We also started shipping our IQ® Balcony Solar Kit, a simple and efficient solution for harnessing solar energy from panels installed on apartment balconies, in Belgium and Germany during the second quarter of 2025.

    We continue to strengthen our digital platform and improve the customer experience. We are investing in several new enhancements for Solargraf, our all-in-one installer platform, including expanded third-party ownership (TPO) partner integrations, a custom tariff builder, enhanced dealership management features, and a simplified, AI-driven design experience – all aimed at making Solargraf even more powerful and intuitive.

    Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Enphase Energy has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either exclude or include amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure can be found in the accompanying tables to this press release. Non-GAAP financial measures presented by Enphase Energy include non-GAAP gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, income from operations, net income, net income per share (basic and diluted), net IRA benefit, and free cash flow.

    These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same captions and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar captions that are used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Enphase Energy’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. As such, these non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Enphase Energy uses these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze its operating performance and future prospects, develop internal budgets and financial goals, and to facilitate period-to-period comparisons. Enphase Energy believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of its operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business.

    As presented in the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables below, each of the non-GAAP financial measures excludes one or more of the following items for purposes of calculating non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate an evaluation of Enphase Energy’s current operating performance and a comparison to its past operating performance:

    Stock-based compensation expense. Enphase Energy excludes stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP measures primarily because they are non-cash in nature. Moreover, the impact of this expense is significantly affected by Enphase Energy’s stock price at the time of an award over which management has limited to no control.

    Acquisition related amortization. This item represents amortization of acquired intangible assets, which is a non-cash expense. Acquisition related amortization of acquired intangible assets are not reflective of Enphase Energy’s ongoing financial performance.

    Restructuring and asset impairment charges. Enphase Energy excludes restructuring and asset impairment charges due to the nature of the expenses being unusual and arising outside the ordinary course of continuing operations. These costs primarily consist of fees paid for cash-based severance costs, accelerated stock-based compensation expense and asset write-downs of property and equipment and acquired intangible assets, and other contract termination costs resulting from restructuring initiatives.

    Non-cash interest expense. This item consists primarily of amortization of debt issuance costs and accretion of debt discount because these expenses do not represent a cash outflow for Enphase Energy except in the period the financing was secured and such amortization expense is not reflective of Enphase Energy’s ongoing financial performance.

    Non-GAAP income tax adjustment. This item represents the amount adjusted to Enphase Energy’s GAAP tax provision or benefit to exclude the income tax effects of GAAP adjustments such as stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangibles, and other non-recurring items that are not reflective of Enphase Energy ongoing financial performance.

    Non-GAAP net income per share, diluted. Enphase Energy excludes the dilutive effect of in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes as they are covered by convertible note hedge transactions that reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon conversion of the Notes due 2025, Notes due 2026, and Notes due 2028, and includes the dilutive effect of employee’s stock-based awards and the dilutive effect of warrants. Enphase Energy believes these adjustments provide useful supplemental information to the ongoing financial performance.

    Net IRA benefit. This item represents the advanced manufacturing production tax credit (AMPTC) from the IRA for manufacturing microinverters in the United States, partially offset by the incremental manufacturing cost incurred in the United States relative to manufacturing in India. The AMPTC is accounted for by Enphase Energy as an income-based government grants that reduces cost of revenues in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

    Free cash flow. This item represents net cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment.

Operating expenses increased to $46.7 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $42.6 million for the corresponding period a year ago, and increased sequentially from $44.5 million for the first quarter of 2025.

    Net income for the second quarter was $41.2 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($1.2) million or ($0.03) per diluted share, for the corresponding period a year ago and net income of $2.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2025.

    Cash flow from operations totaled $65.2 million for the second quarter, compared to cash flow from operations of $15.6 million for the corresponding period a year ago, and cash flow from operations of $20.1 million in the first quarter of 2025.

    Commenting on second quarter performance, Chief Executive Officer Dr. Patrizio Vinciarelli stated: “Having brought to fruition our first ITC action with cease-and-desist and exclusion orders, we are pursuing additional actions to curtail importation into the US of infringing power and computing systems sourced from contract manufacturers by unlicensed OEMs and Hyper-scalers.”

    “As importantly, we are bringing to fruition high performance ChiPs and 2nd gen VPD for AI applications, which should increase product revenues and utilization of our first ChiP fab. Total revenues and margins will thus reflect many patented innovations in the state of the art of high density power systems.”

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CLEARFIELD, Pa., July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

    CNB Financial Corporation (“Corporation”) (NASDAQ: CCNE), the parent company of CNB Bank, today announced its earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

    Key Financial Trends

    • Earnings – Net income available to common shareholders (“earnings”) was $12.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, and $10.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
      • Excluding after-tax merger costs, earnings were $13.2 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting an increase of $1.3 million, or 11.31%, and $0.06 per diluted share, or 10.53%, compared to earnings of $11.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.1
    • Loans – At June 30, 2025, loans totaled $4.7 billion, excluding the balances of syndicated loans, representing a quarterly increase of $113.7 million, or 2.50% (10.04% annualized), compared to March 31, 2025.
    • Deposits – At June 30, 2025, total deposits were $5.5 billion, reflecting a quarterly increase of $7.0 million, or 0.13% (0.51% annualized), compared to March 31, 2025.
      • The second quarter of 2025 included the exits/reductions of higher cost municipal deposits totaling approximately $77.7 million. Excluding the impact of these exits/reductions, total deposits increased approximately $84.7 million or 1.55% (6.22% annualized), compared to the first quarter of 2025.1
    • Net Interest Margin – Net interest margin was 3.60% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 3.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.59% and 3.37%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively.1
    • Credit Quality – Total nonperforming assets were approximately $30.4 million, or 0.48% of total assets, as of June 30, 2025, compared to $56.1 million, or 0.89% of total assets, as of March 31, 2025. The $25.7 million decrease in nonperforming assets for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily due to the resolution of approximately $24.1 million in non-performing assets, as discussed in more detail below.
      • Net loan charge-offs were $3.3 million, or 0.28% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, for the three months ended June 30 2025, compared to $1.4 million, or 0.13% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
    • Capital – As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation’s ratio of common shareholders’ equity to total assets was 9.17% compared to 9.00% at March 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Corporation’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, a non-GAAP measure, was 8.53% and 8.36%, respectively.1

    Executive Summary

    • Net income available to common shareholders (“earnings”) was $12.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, and $10.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. Excluding after-tax merger costs, earnings were $13.2 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting an increase of $1.3 million, or 11.31%, and $0.06 per diluted share, or 10.53%, compared to earnings of $11.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.1 The quarterly increase was a result of an increase in net interest income and non-interest income, and a decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by an increase in the provision for credit losses, as discussed in more detail below. Excluding after-tax merger costs in the second quarter 2025, earnings and diluted earnings per share when compared to earnings of $11.9 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, in the quarter ended June 30, 2024, increased $1.4 million, or 11.41%, and $0.07 per diluted share, or 12.50%, due to an increase in net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by increases in non-interest expense and the provision for credit losses.1
    • Earnings were $23.3 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Excluding after-tax merger costs, earnings were $25.1 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting an increase of $1.7 million, or 7.37%, and $0.08 per diluted share, or 7.21%, compared to earnings of $23.4 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.1 The year-to-date increase was a result of an increase in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income, and increases in non-interest expense and the provision for credit losses, as discussed in more detail below.
    • At June 30, 2025, loans totaled $4.7 billion, excluding the balances of syndicated loans. This total of $4.7 billion in loans represented a quarterly increase of $113.7 million, or 2.50% (10.04% annualized), compared to March 31, 2025, and a year-over-year increase of $228.7 million, or 5.17%, compared to June 30, 2024. The increase in loans for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and the year-over-year increase in loans as of June 30, 2025, compared to June 30, 2024, was primarily driven by growth in the ERIEBANK, Ridge View Bank, BankOnBuffalo, and the legacy CNB markets, as well as CNB Bank’s Private Banking division.
      • At June 30, 2025, the syndicated loan portfolio totaled $78.9 million, or 1.67% of total loans, compared to $69.2 million, or 1.50% of total loans, at March 31, 2025 and $53.9 million, or 1.20% of total loans, at June 30, 2024. The increase in syndicated lending balances of $9.7 million compared to March 31, 2025 and $25.0 million compared to June 30, 2024 reflects the Corporation’s continued focus on evaluating the level and composition of its syndicated loan portfolio to ensure it continues to provide strong credit quality, profitable use of excess liquidity, and complement the Corporation’s loan growth from its in-market customer relationships.
    • At June 30, 2025, total deposits were $5.5 billion, reflecting a quarterly increase of $7.0 million, or 0.13% (0.51% annualized), compared to March 31, 2025, and a year-over-year increase of $356.2 million, or 6.97%, compared to total deposits measured as of June 30, 2024. The growth in total deposits in the second quarter of 2025 includes the exit/reductions of higher cost municipal deposits totaling approximately $77.7 million. Excluding the impact of these exit/reductions, total deposits increased approximately $84.7 million or 1.55% (6.22% annualized).1 The increase in deposit balances for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and the year-over-year increase in deposit balances as of June 30, 2025, was driven primarily by higher Treasury Management sourced business and municipal deposits, coupled with growth in retail accounts, including time deposits. Additional deposit and liquidity profile details were as follows:
      • At June 30, 2025, the total estimated uninsured deposits for CNB Bank were approximately $1.6 billion, or approximately 28.62% of total CNB Bank deposits. However, when excluding $103.5 million of affiliate company deposits and $509.0 million of pledged-investment collateralized deposits, the adjusted amount and percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits was approximately $982.0 million, or approximately 17.63% of total CNB Bank deposits as of June 30, 2025.
        • The level of adjusted uninsured deposits at June 30, 2025 remained relatively unchanged, compared to the level at March 31, 2025, when the total estimated uninsured deposits for CNB Bank were approximately $1.6 billion, or approximately 27.94% of total CNB Bank deposits. Excluding $101.9 million of affiliate company deposits and $481.2 million of pledged-investment collateralized deposits, the adjusted amount and percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits were approximately $971.1 million, or approximately 17.46% of total CNB Bank deposits as of March 31, 2025.
      • At June 30, 2025, the average deposit balance per account for CNB Bank was approximately $34 thousand, which has remained stable at this level for an extended period.
      • At June 30, 2025, the Corporation had $332.2 million of cash equivalents held in CNB Bank’s interest-bearing deposit account at the Federal Reserve. These excess funds, when combined with collective contingent liquidity resources of $4.6 billion including (i) available borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve, and (ii) available unused commitments from brokered deposit sources and other third-party funding channels, including previously established lines of credit from correspondent banks, resulted in the total available liquidity sources for the Corporation as of June 30, 2025 to be approximately 5.1 times the estimated amount of adjusted uninsured deposit balances discussed above.
    • At June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the Corporation had no outstanding short-term borrowings from the FHLB or the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window.
    • At June 30, 2025, the Corporation’s pre-tax net unrealized losses on the combined portfolios of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities totaled $55.6 million, or 8.73% of total shareholders’ equity, compared to $61.7 million, or 9.88% of total shareholders’ equity, at March 31, 2025, and $84.1 million, or 14.33% of total shareholders’ equity, at June 30, 2024. The change in unrealized losses during the first second quarter 2025 was primarily due to changes in the yield curve compared to the first quarter of 2024 and second quarter of 2024, coupled with the Corporation’s scheduled bond maturities, which were all realized at par. Importantly, all regulatory capital ratios for the Corporation would still exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” levels as of June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024 if the net unrealized losses at the respective dates were fully recognized. Additionally, the Corporation continued to maintain excess liquidity at its holding company totaling approximately $102.2 million of liquid funds at June 30, 2025, which more than covers the $55.6 million in combined available-for-sale and held-to-maturity unrealized losses on investments held primarily in its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, as an immediately available source of contingent capital to be down-streamed to CNB Bank, if necessary.
    • Total nonperforming assets were approximately $30.4 million, or 0.48% of total assets, as of June 30, 2025, compared to $56.1 million, or 0.89% of total assets, as of March 31, 2025, and $36.5 million, or 0.62% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024. The $25.7 million decrease in nonperforming assets for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily due to paydowns to workout-related efforts on two larger nonaccrual loan relationships, and resulting charge-offs on these workouts and other smaller problem loans. The most significant charge-offs were $1.5 million for an owner-occupied commercial real estate relationship (balance of approximately $3.8 million with a specific reserve balance of $1.4 million) and a $1.1 million charge-off of a multifamily commercial real estate loan (balance of approximately $20.3 million with a specific reserve balance of $885 thousand). The $6.2 million decrease in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2024 was due to charge-off of the owner-occupied commercial real estate relationship previously discussed, coupled with paydowns to nonaccrual loans. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net loan charge-offs were $3.3 million, or 0.28% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $1.4 million, or 0.13% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $2.8 million, or 0.25% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”), a non-GAAP measure, was $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $15.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.1 Excluding merger costs, PPNR was $21.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $17.4 million and $18.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.1 The second quarter 2025 PPNR, excluding merger costs, when compared to the first quarter of 2025, reflected increases in net interest income and non-interest income and a decrease in non-interest expense. The increase in PPNR for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to higher net interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses. PPNR was $37.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.1 Excluding merger costs, PPNR was $39.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.1 The year-to-date 2025 PPNR, excluding merger costs, when compared to the year-to-date 2024 PPNR, reflected increases in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income and an increase in non-interest expense.

    1 This release contains references to certain financial measures that are not defined by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section.

    Michael Peduzzi, President and CEO of both the Corporation and CNB Bank, stated, “Favorably, our second quarter earnings and growth reflected the positive momentum of continued commercial loan growth and demand that we saw at the end of the first quarter with both existing relationships and new prospects. This momentum included realized deposit and relationship growth based in our Treasury Management activities, as evidenced by favorable growth in our noninterest-bearing deposits. These volume increases in our core net interest income components were complemented by increases in our average loan yield and continued decreases in our cost of interest-bearing funds, resulting in a favorable 22 basis point increase in our taxable-equivalent net interest margin compared to the first quarter. We continue to see both a sound loan pipeline and opportunities for further cost-of-fund interest reductions as we enter the third quarter. Importantly, as we release these second quarter earnings, we are ready to close and begin the integration of our acquisition of ESSA Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary, ESSA Bank and Trust (collectively, “ESSA”), with legal merger close scheduled to occur at the end of day on July 23, 2025. The addition of this wonderful franchise and related employee team will add significantly to CNB’s earning-asset base and market footprint, allowing us to deliver great banking and wealth management experiences for clients in the Northeastern Pennsylvania markets served by ESSA. In addition to the increased net interest income earning and growth capabilities we expect from our business combination, we look to continue to focus on tightly managing the Corporation’s core overhead, while realizing economies-of-scale cost efficiencies from the ESSA acquisition, as we look to realize both increased positive operating leverage and further accretion to our net interest margin and overall earnings. We are honored to welcome the clients, employees, and investors from ESSA to our CNB family.”

    Other Balance Sheet Highlights

    • Book value per common share was $27.44 and $27.01 at June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. Excluding after-tax merger costs, book value per common share was $27.53, reflecting an increase of $0.45, or 6.67% (annualized), from $27.08 at March 31, 2025 and a year-over-year increase of $2.34, or 9.29%, from $25.19 at June 30, 2024.1 Tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP measure, was $25.35 and $24.91 as of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. Excluding after-tax merger costs, tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP measure, was $25.44, reflecting an increase of $0.46, or 7.39% (annualized) from $24.98 as of March 31, 2025 and a year-over-year increase of $2.35, or 10.18%, from $23.09 as of June 30, 2024.1 The increases in book value per common share and tangible book value per common share, excluding after-tax merger costs, from March 31, 2025 to June 30, 2025 were primarily due to a $9.1 million increase in retained earnings, coupled with a $3.0 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio for the second quarter of 2025. The increases in book value per common share and tangible book value per common share, excluding after-tax merger costs, from June 30, 2024 to June 30, 2025 were primarily due to a $35.0 million increase in retained earnings over the twelve months ended June 30, 2025 coupled with a $13.9 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio for the past twelve months.

    Loan Portfolio Profile

    • As part of its lending policy and risk management activities, the Corporation tracks lending exposure by industry classification and type to determine potential risks associated with industry concentrations, and to identify any concentration risk issues that could lead to additional credit loss exposure. An important and recurring part of this process involves the Corporation’s continued measurement and evaluation of its exposure to the office, hospitality, and multifamily industries within its commercial real estate portfolio. Even given the Corporation’s historically sound underwriting protocols and high credit quality standards for borrowers in the commercial real estate industry segments, the Corporation monitors numerous relevant sensitivity elements, including occupancy, loan-to-value, absorption and cap rates, debt service coverage and covenant compliance, and developer/lessor financial strength both in the project and globally. At June 30, 2025, the Corporation had the following key metrics related to its office, hospitality and multifamily portfolios:
      • Commercial office loans:
        • There were 113 outstanding loans, totaling $111.1 million, or 2.35% of total Corporation loans outstanding;
        • There were no nonaccrual commercial office loans;
        • There were two past-due commercial office loans that totaled $209 thousand, or 0.19% of total commercial office loans outstanding; and
        • The average outstanding balance per commercial office loan was $983 thousand.
      • Commercial hospitality loans:
        • There were 156 outstanding loans, totaling $321.2 million, or 6.79% of total Corporation loans outstanding;
        • There were no nonaccrual commercial hospitality loans;
        • There were no past-due commercial hospitality loans; and
        • The average outstanding balance per commercial hospitality loan was $2.1 million.
      • Commercial multifamily loans:
        • There were 223 outstanding loans, totaling $405.4 million, or 8.57% of total Corporation loans outstanding;
        • There was one nonaccrual and past-due commercial multifamily loan that totaled $199 thousand, or 0.05% of total multifamily loans outstanding; and
        • The average outstanding balance per commercial multifamily loan was $1.8 million.

    The Corporation had no commercial office, hospitality or multifamily loan relationships considered by the banking regulators to be high volatility commercial real estate (“HVCRE”) credits.

    • Annualized return on average tangible common equity, a non-GAAP measure, was 9.71% and 8.15% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. Excluding after-tax merger costs, annualized return on average tangible common equity was 9.98% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 9.32% and 9.93% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.1 Annualized return on average tangible common equity was 8.95% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Excluding after-tax merger costs, annualized return on average tangible common equity was 9.66% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 9.85% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.1
    • The Corporation’s efficiency ratio was 64.73% and 72.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively, and 64.08% and 71.28%, respectively, on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure.1 Excluding merger costs, the efficiency ratio on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 63.50%, compared to 68.62% and 65.20% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.1 The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily driven by higher net interest income and non-interest income and decreased non-interest expense, as further discussed below. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by an increase in net interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense. The Corporation’s efficiency ratio was 68.27% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 67.55% on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure.1 Excluding merger costs, the efficiency ratio on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 65.97%, compared to 66.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.1 The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by higher net interest income, partially offset by higher non-interest expense.

    Revenue

    • Total revenue (net interest income plus non-interest income) was $61.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase when compared to $56.9 million and $54.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
      • Net interest income was $52.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $48.4 million and $45.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. When comparing the second quarter of 2025 to the first quarter of 2025, the increase in net interest income of $3.8 million, or 7.78% (31.19% annualized), was primarily due to the change in the earning asset mix from interest-bearing deposits to loans, coupled with changes in the yield curve.
      • Net interest margin was 3.60%, 3.38%, and 3.36% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.59%, 3.37% and 3.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively.1
        • The yield on earning assets of 5.89% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased 16 basis points from March 31, 2025 and was unchanged compared to June 30, 2024. The increase in yield in the second quarter of 2025 compared to quarter ended March 31, 2025 was attributable to quarter-over-quarter increases in the yield on both the loan and securities portfolios.
        • The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 2.88% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of 5 basis points from March 31, 2025 and a 29 basis points from June 30, 2024. The decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities is primarily the result of the Corporation’s targeted interest-bearing deposit rate decreases in response to the Federal Reserve rate decreases since mid-September 2024.
    • Total revenue was $118.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $108.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
      • Net interest income was $100.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $90.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. When comparing the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2024, the increase in net interest income of $9.7 million, or 10.65% (21.37% annualized), was due to investment and loan growth.
      • Net interest margin was 3.49% and 3.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.48% and 3.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.1
        • The yield on earning assets of 5.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased 4 basis points from June 30, 2024. The decrease in yield compared to June 30, 2024 was attributable to lower loan yields on variable and floating-rate loans following the three Federal Reserve rate decreases totaling 100 basis points since mid-September 2024.
        • The cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 2.90% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased 20 basis points from June 30, 2024, primarily the result of the Corporation’s targeted interest-bearing deposit rate decreases in response to the Federal Reserve rate decreases since mid-September 2024.
    • Total non-interest income was $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $8.5 million and $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily attributable to an increase in wealth and asset management fees, bank owned life insurance revenue (death benefit), and an improvement in unrealized gains on equity securities, partially offset by lower pass-through income from small business investment companies (“SBICs”). The increase year-over-year in non-interest income was primarily due to increases in bank owned life insurance (death benefit) and an improvement in unrealized gains on equity securities, partially offset by lower other charges and fees, coupled with lower pass-through income from SBICs.
    • Total non-interest income was $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $17.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to lower other charges and fees, coupled with lower pass-through income from SBICs, partially offset by an increase in unrealized gains on equity securities, bank owned life insurance revenue (death benefit) and card processing and interchange income.

    Non-Interest Expense

    • For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025 total non-interest expense was $39.6 million and $41.0 million, respectively. Excluding merger costs, total non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $39.3 million, compared to $39.5 million and $36.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.1 Excluding merger costs, the decrease of $249 thousand, or 0.63%, from the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily driven by a decrease in salaries and benefits, due to a decrease in staffing levels, coupled with retirement plan contribution accruals. The Corporation tightly managed its core back-office staffing levels in anticipation of the impact of staffing additions from the planned ESSA acquisition. Excluding merger costs, the $3.3 million increase in non-interest expense compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by higher salaries and benefits, reflecting increased incentive compensation accruals and retirement plan contribution accruals. Additionally, occupancy expense increased, primarily due to higher rent expense related to three additional full-service office locations, coupled with an increase in card processing and interchange expenses and other non-interest expenses (timing of business development expenses). The increase in card processing and interchange expenses related to the changes made by the Corporation to its cardholder rewards program during the second quarter 2024.
    • For the six months ended June 30, 2025 total non-interest expense was $80.7 million. Excluding merger costs, total non-interest expense was $78.8 million, compared to $73.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Excluding merger costs, the increase of $5.4 million, or 7.30%, from the six months ended June 30, 2024, was primarily driven by higher salaries and benefits, reflecting increased base salaries for inflationary annual increases, higher incentive compensation accruals, and increased retirement plan contribution accruals. Additionally, occupancy expense increased, primarily due to higher rent expense related to three additional full-service office locations, coupled with an increase in card processing and interchange expenses and other non-interest expenses (timing of business development expenses).

    Income Taxes

    • Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $3.3 million, representing a 19.10% effective tax rate, compared to $2.9 million, representing a 19.96% effective tax rate, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $3.0 million, representing an 19.03% effective tax rate, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The effective tax rate for the first and second quarters of 2025 was impacted by non-deductible merger costs of $1.3 million and $357 thousand, respectively. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $6.2 million, representing a 19.49% effective tax rate, compared to $5.9 million, representing a 18.70% effective tax rate, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

    Asset Quality

    • Total nonperforming assets were approximately $30.4 million, or 0.48% of total assets, as of June 30, 2025, compared to $56.1 million, or 0.89% of total assets, as of March 31, 2025, and $36.5 million, or 0.62% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024, as discussed in more detail above.
    • The allowance for credit losses measured as a percentage of total loans was 1.02% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1.03% as of as of March 31, 2025, and 1.02% as of June 30, 2024. In addition, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was 169.52% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 87.57% and 130.88% as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The change in the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was primarily attributable to the levels of nonperforming assets, as discussed in more detail above.
    • The provision for credit losses was $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.6 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The $2.8 million and $1.7 million increases in the provision expense for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2025 and second quarter 2024, respectively, were primarily a result of increased net loan charge-offs, as discussed in more detail above, coupled with higher loan portfolio growth. The provision for credit losses was $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The $2.0 million increase in the provision expense for the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 was primarily a result of higher loan portfolio growth for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, coupled with increased net loan charge-offs, as discussed above.
    • As discussed in more detail above, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, net loan charge-offs were $3.3 million, or 0.28% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $1.4 million, or 0.13% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $2.8 million, or 0.25% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net loan charge-offs were $4.7 million, or 0.21% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, compared to $4.1 million, or 0.19% (annualized) of average total loans and loans held for sale, during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

    Capital

    • As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation’s total shareholders’ equity was $637.3 million, representing an increase of $12.8 million, or 2.05% (8.20% annualized), from March 31, 2025, and an increase of $50.6 million, or 8.62%, from June 30, 2024. The changes resulted from an increase in the Corporation’s retained earnings (net income, partially offset by the common and preferred stock dividends paid) and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily from the after-tax impact of temporary unrealized valuation changes in the Corporation’s available-for-sale investment portfolio.
    • Regulatory capital ratios for the Corporation continue to exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” levels as of June 30, 2025, consistent with prior periods.
    • As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation’s ratio of common shareholders’ equity to total assets was 9.17% compared to 9.00% at March 31, 2025 and 8.99% at June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Corporation’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, a non-GAAP measure, was 8.53% and 8.36%, respectively. Excluding merger costs, the Corporation’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, a non-GAAP measure, as of June 30, 2025 was 8.56% compared to 8.38% at March 31, 2025 and 8.30% at June 30, 2024.1 The increase in the June 30, 2025 ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets compared to March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was primarily the result of a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, coupled with an increase in retained earnings, as discussed above.1

    Consolidated Financial Data Notes:          
    (1) Management uses non-GAAP financial information in its analysis of the Corporation’s performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. The Corporation’s management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP measures to analyze the Corporation’s financial performance without the impact of unusual items or events that may obscure trends in the Corporation’s underlying performance. This non-GAAP data should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the risks that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items included in these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below (dollars in thousands, except per share data).
    (2) Capital ratios as of June 30, 2025 are estimated pending final regulatory filings.

    (1 ) Includes unamortized discounts and premiums.
    (2 ) Average yields are stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis (calculated using statutory rates of 21%) resulting from tax-free municipal securities in the investment portfolio and tax-free municipal loans in the commercial loan portfolio. The taxable equivalent adjustment to net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was $265 thousand, $260 thousand and $214 thousand, respectively.
    (3 ) Average loans receivable outstanding includes the average balance outstanding of all nonaccrual loans. Loans receivable consist of the average of total loans receivable less average unearned income. In addition, loans receivable interest income consists of loans receivable fees, including PPP deferred processing fees.
    (4 ) Average balance is computed using the fair value of AFS securities and amortized cost of HTM securities. Average yield has been computed using amortized cost average balance for AFS and HTM securities. The adjustment to the average balance for securities in the calculation of average yield for the three months ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was $(42.6) million, $(48.1) million and $(59.2) million, respectively.

    (2 ) Average yields are stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis (calculated using statutory rates of 21%) resulting from tax-free municipal securities in the investment portfolio and tax-free municipal loans in the commercial loan portfolio. The taxable equivalent adjustment to net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, was $525 thousand and $431 thousand, respectively.
    (3 ) Average loans receivable outstanding includes the average balance outstanding of all nonaccrual loans. Loans receivable consist of the average of total loans receivable less average unearned income. In addition, loans receivable interest income consists of loans receivable fees, including PPP deferred processing fees.
    (4 ) Average balance is computed using the fair value of AFS securities and amortized cost of HTM securities. Average yield has been computed using amortized cost average balance for AFS and HTM securities. The adjustment to the average balance for securities in the calculation of average yield for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $(45.3) million and $(57.2) million, respectively.

  • MIL-OSI: Western New England Bancorp, Inc. Reports Results for Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    WESTFIELD, Mass., July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Western New England Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or “WNEB”) (NasdaqGS: WNEB), the holding company for Westfield Bank (the “Bank”), announced today the unaudited results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $4.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. On a linked quarter basis, net income was $4.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $2.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net income was $6.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

    The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend will be payable on or about August 20, 2025 to shareholders of record on August 6, 2025.

    James C. Hagan, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report solid earnings for the second quarter of 2025, along with strong overall loan growth and core deposit growth. Core deposits increased $81.4 million, or 5.2%, since year-end, which will be beneficial as we continue to lower deposit costs and reduce our reliance on time deposits. We are also pleased to report that our commercial and industrial loan portfolio increased $22.8 million, or 10.8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and our residential real estate portfolio increased $29.7 million, or 3.8%, during the same period. Growth in commercial and industrial loans is a strategic priority for the Company as we remain focused on meeting the needs of our business and commercial customers.

    We believe our balance sheet structure will continue to have a positive impact on earnings in the current interest rate environment. Net interest income increased $2.1 million, or 13.6%, from the three months ended March 31, 2025 to the three months ended June 30, 2025, while the net interest margin increased 31 basis points from 2.49% to 2.80% during the same period. Our loan growth and disciplined approach to managing funding costs have allowed us to expand our net interest margin as we continue to decrease the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and our reliance on time deposits. Our asset quality remains solid, with nonperforming assets to total assets of 0.21%, and total delinquency as a percentage of total loans of 0.18%.”

    Hagan concluded, “Our capital position continues to remain strong, and the Company is considered to be well-capitalized as defined by the regulators. We remain disciplined in our capital management strategies and during the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 497,318 shares of common stock with an average price per share of $9.31. We continue to believe that buying back shares, at current prices, represents a prudent use of the Company’s capital. On April 22, 2025, we announced a new repurchase plan (the “2025 Plan”) which commenced upon the completion of the 2024 Repurchase Plan (the “2024 Plan”). On June 3, 2025, we announced the completion of the 2024 Plan, under which the Company repurchased a total of 1.0 million shares at an average price per share of $8.79. We are pleased with our second quarter results and are committed to delivering long-term value to shareholders through capital management strategies, which include continued loan growth, share repurchases and quarterly cash dividends.”

    Key Highlights:

    Loans and Deposits

    Total gross loans increased $22.1 million, or 1.1%, from $2.1 billion, or 77.9% of total assets, at December 31, 2024 to $2.1 billion, or 77.1% of total assets, at June 30, 2025. The increase in total gross loans was primarily driven by an increase in residential real estate loans, including home equity loans, of $29.7 million, or 3.8%, and an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $22.8 million, or 10.8%. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in commercial real estate loans of $29.5 million, or 2.7%, and a decrease in consumer loans of $879,000, or 20.0%.

    At June 30, 2025, total deposits of $2.3 billion increased $67.5 million, or 3.0%, from December 31, 2024. Core deposits, which the Company defines as all deposits except time deposits, increased $81.4 million, or 5.2%, from $1.6 billion, or 68.9% of total deposits, at December 31, 2024, to $1.6 billion, or 70.4% of total deposits, at June 30, 2025. Time deposits decreased $13.9 million, or 2.0%, from $703.6 million at December 31, 2024 to $689.7 million at June 30, 2025.

    Stock Repurchase Program

    On April 22, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the 2025 Plan, pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to 1.0 million shares of its common stock, or approximately 4.8%, of the Company’s then-outstanding shares of common stock, upon the completion of the 2024 Plan. On June 3, 2025, the Company announced the completion of its 2024 Plan under which the Company repurchased a total of 1.0 million shares at an average price per share of $8.79.

    During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 290,609 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $9.45. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 497,318 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $9.31. As of June 30, 2025, there were 975,000 shares of common stock available for repurchase under the 2025 Plan.

    The repurchase of shares under our 2025 Plan is administered through an independent broker. The shares of common stock repurchased under the 2025 Plan have been and will continue to be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, depending upon market conditions. There is no guarantee as to the exact number, or value, of shares that will be repurchased by the Company, and the Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that the Company’s management (“Management”) determines additional repurchases are not warranted. The timing and amount of additional share repurchases under the 2025 Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the Company’s stock price performance, ongoing capital planning considerations, general market conditions, and applicable legal requirements.

    The Company’s book value per share was $11.68 at June 30, 2025 compared to $11.30 at December 31, 2024, while tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased $0.38, or 3.6%, from $10.63 at December 31, 2024 to $11.01 at June 30, 2025.

The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest income of $1.2 million, or 4.1%, and a decrease in interest expense of $933,000, or 7.2%. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $425,000 in prepayment penalties related to payoffs in the commercial portfolio. The $933,000, or 7.2%, decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in average rates paid on interest-bearing deposits during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

    The net interest margin was 2.80% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 2.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 2.82% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 2.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The increase in the net interest margin was primarily due to an increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets and a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

    The average yield on interest-earning assets, without the impact of tax-equivalent adjustments, increased 13 basis points from 4.56%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to 4.69% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

The increase in total assets was primarily due to an increase in total gross loans of $22.1 million, or 1.1%, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $26.9 million, or 40.4%, and an increase in investment securities of $10.8 million, or 2.9%.

    Investments

    At June 30, 2025, the investment securities portfolio totaled $376.9 million, or 13.9% of total assets, compared to $366.1 million, or 13.8% of total assets, at December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio, recorded at fair market value, increased $18.1 million, or 11.3%, from $160.7 million at December 31, 2024 to $178.8 million. The held-to-maturity securities portfolio, recorded at amortized cost, decreased $7.4 million, or 3.6%, from $205.0 million at December 31, 2024 to $197.7 million at June 30, 2025.

    At June 30, 2025, the Company reported unrealized losses on the available-for-sale securities portfolio of $26.6 million, or 12.9% of the amortized cost basis of the available-for-sale securities portfolio, compared to unrealized losses of $31.2 million, or 16.2% of the amortized cost basis of the available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company reported unrealized losses on the held-to-maturity securities portfolio of $35.4 million, or 17.8% of the amortized cost basis of the held-to-maturity securities portfolio, compared to $39.4 million, or 19.2% of the amortized cost basis of the held-to-maturity securities portfolio at December 31, 2024.

    The securities in which the Company may invest are limited by regulation. Federally chartered savings banks have authority to invest in various types of assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, securities of various government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities, certain certificates of deposit of insured financial institutions, repurchase agreements, overnight and short-term loans to other banks, corporate debt instruments and marketable equity securities. The securities, with the exception of $8.7 million in corporate bonds, are issued by the United States government or government-sponsored enterprises and are therefore either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed as to the timely payment of contractual principal and interest. These positions are deemed to have no credit impairment, therefore, the disclosed unrealized losses with the securities portfolio relate primarily to changes in prevailing interest rates. In all cases, price improvement in future periods will be realized as the issuances approach maturity.

    Management regularly reviews the portfolio for securities in an unrealized loss position. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not record any credit impairment charges on its securities portfolio and attributed the unrealized losses primarily due to fluctuations in general interest rates or changes in expected prepayments and not due to credit quality. The primary objective of the Company’s investment portfolio is to provide liquidity and to secure municipal deposit accounts while preserving the safety of principal. The available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios are both eligible for pledging to the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) as collateral for borrowings. The portfolios are comprised of high-credit quality investments and both portfolios generated cash flows monthly from interest, principal amortization and payoffs, which support’s the Bank’s objective to provide liquidity.

    Total Loans

    Total gross loans increased $22.1 million, or 1.1%, from $2.1 billion, or 77.9% of total assets, at December 31, 2024 to $2.1 billion, or 77.1% of total assets, at June 30, 2025. The increase in total gross loans was primarily driven by an increase in residential real estate loans, including home equity loans, of $29.7 million, or 3.8%, and an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $22.8 million, or 10.8%. The increase in commercial and industrial loans was partially due to an increase in line of credit utilization, from 21.9% at December 31, 2024 to 26.1% at June 30, 2025. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in commercial real estate loans of $29.5 million, or 2.7%, and a decrease in consumer loans of $879,000, or 20.0%.

    Credit Quality

    Management continues to closely monitor the loan portfolio for any signs of deterioration in borrowers’ financial condition and also in light of speculation that commercial real estate values may deteriorate as the market continues to adjust to higher vacancies and interest rates. We continue to proactively take steps to mitigate risk in our loan portfolio.

    Total delinquency was $3.9 million, or 0.18% of total loans, at June 30, 2025, compared to $5.0 million, or 0.24% of total loans at December 31, 2024.

    Our commercial real estate portfolio is comprised of diversified property types and primarily within our geographic footprint. At June 30, 2025, the commercial real estate portfolio totaled $1.0 billion, and represented 50.1% of total gross loans. Of the $1.0 billion, $859.2 million, or 82.1%, was categorized as non-owner occupied commercial real estate and represented 316.9% of the Bank’s total risk-based capital. More details on the diversification of the loan portfolio are available in the supplementary earnings presentation.

Brokered time deposits, which are included in time deposits, totaled $1.7 million at December 31, 2024. The Company did not have brokered time deposits at June 30, 2025. We continue our disciplined and focused approach to core relationship management and customer outreach to meet funding requirements and liquidity needs, with an emphasis on retaining a long-term core customer relationship base by competing for and retaining deposits in our local market.

At June 30, 2025, total shares outstanding were 20,494,501. The Company’s regulatory capital ratios continue to be strong and in excess of regulatory minimum requirements to be considered well-capitalized as defined by regulators and internal Company targets.

    Dividends

    Although the Company has historically paid quarterly dividends on its common stock and currently intends to continue to pay such dividends, the Company’s ability to pay such dividends depends on a number of factors, including restrictions under federal laws and regulations on the Company’s ability to pay dividends, and as a result, there can be no assurance that dividends will continue to be paid in the future.

    As prepared for delivery:
    “We meet today to consider favorably reporting the nominations of Joe Barloon, who is nominated to serve as Deputy USTR and Ambassador to the World Trade Organization (WTO) and Brian Morrissey, who is nominated to serve as the General Counsel of the Treasury Department.
    “The meeting this morning will provide members with the opportunity to make remarks on the nominees. Following statements, we will recess briefly then proceed to our nominations hearing this morning. Later today, we will notify members of the time and location of the vote on Mr. Barloon and Mr. Morrissey.
    “During his hearing, Mr. Barloon discussed his plan to work in good faith with WTO Members to advance the interests of the United States. Importantly, based on his prior tenure as General Counsel to the U.S. Trade Representative, Mr. Barloon understands the critical role the WTO plays in ensuring market access for our farmers and businesses of all types.

I was encouraged to hear that he will prioritize a close working relationship with Congress to ensure that the Department effectively implements all laws Congress sends to it.
    “I will vote in favor of both nominations and I encourage all of my colleagues on the Committee to do the same.”

    Washington, D.C.—U.S. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) delivered the following remarks at a nomination hearing to consider Jonathan McKernan to be an Under Secretary of the Treasury and Alex Adams of Idaho to be Assistant Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary for Family Support.
    As prepared for delivery:
    “Thank you to our nominees, Mr. McKernan and Dr. Adams, for being here today. Congratulations on your nominations and thank you both for your willingness to serve.
    “Today, we will first hear from Jonathan McKernan who is nominated to serve as the Under Secretary for Domestic Finance at the Treasury Department.
    “The Domestic Finance office develops policies and guidance for Treasury Department activities in areas involving financial institutions, federal debt finance, financial regulation and capital markets. Sensible guidance in these areas better ensures financial stability and the growth and resilience of our economy.
    “Mr. McKernan has a demonstrated track record of support for sound and balanced regulation. As a member of the Board of Directors at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), Mr. McKernan opposed burdensome rulemakings, such as the Basel III Endgame Proposal, which would have hindered economic growth and reduced lending to households and businesses.
    “He also served in senior advisory roles on the staff of the Senate Banking Committee, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) and the Treasury Department.
    “Mr. McKernan, I look forward to working with you, if confirmed, to bolster and protect our domestic financial system.
    “We will also hear from Dr. Alex Adams–from Eagle, Idaho–who is nominated to serve as the Assistant Secretary for Family Support, which oversees the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
    “ACF plays a vital role in supporting some of America’s most vulnerable populations, including foster care and adoption assistance, both of which have garnered bipartisan interest from this Committee. It is imperative that this agency is led by someone with a deep understanding of these complex issues, a commitment to sound fiscal management, and a proven track record of delivering results.
    “Dr. Adams’ service as the Director of Idaho’s Department of Health and Welfare has prepared him to lead ACF. He has overseen a staff of nearly 3,000 individuals and an annual budget of $5.5 billion and delivered clear results for Idahoans.
    “As Director, Dr. Adams placed a strong emphasis on child welfare, working with the Idaho State Legislature to enact laws to extend foster care to age 23, allow kin-specific licensing standards, and enhance time to permanency.
    “Dr. Adams also has a strong record on budget and efficiency, having served as Governor Little’s budget and regulatory director. He has demonstrated a keen eye toward fiscal responsibility, reducing regulatory burden and maximizing the impact of taxpayer dollars. This experience will be invaluable as he oversees the varied programs under ACF’s purview.
    “His nomination has also received letters of support from a broad range of different stakeholders, which I request to be entered into the record.
    “Thank you again to our nominees for their time today.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Indianapolis CPA Sentenced for Participation in Illegal Tax Shelter

    Source: US State of North Dakota

    Defendant Helped Clients in Mississippi and Elsewhere File Returns Claiming False Business Deductions

    An Indiana CPA was sentenced yesterday to three years in prison for assisting in the preparation of false tax returns on behalf of clients who participated in an illegal tax shelter.

    The following is according to court documents and statements made in court: between 2013 and 2022, Jason L. Crace prepared income tax returns for clients that claimed millions of dollars in false deductions for so-called “royalty payments.”  However, as Crace knew, these “royalty payments” were merely circular flows of money designed to give the appearance of genuine business expenses. Typically, a client would send money to bank accounts controlled by scheme promoters who then sent the money — minus a fee — back to a different bank account controlled by the client. In this way, tax shelter participants retained control of the money they transferred, while falsely deducting the transfers as business expenses on their tax returns. One of the scheme’s promoters, Stephen T. Mellinger III, previously pleaded guilty and was sentenced to eight years in prison for his role promoting the scheme.

    In total, Crace’s preparation of false tax returns claiming fraudulent “royalty” deductions caused a loss to the IRS of more than $2.5 million.

    In addition to his prison sentence, the court sentenced Crace to serve one year of supervised release and to pay restitution of $2,532,936.

    Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General Karen E. Kelly of the Justice Department’s Tax Division and Acting U.S. Attorney Patrick Lemon for the Southern District of Mississippi made the announcement.

    IRS Criminal Investigation is investigating the case.

    Trial Attorneys Richard J. Hagerman, William M. Montague, and Matthew C. Hicks of the Justice Department’s Tax Division and Assistant U.S. Attorney Charles W. Kirkham for the Southern District of Mississippi are prosecuting the case.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Five Defendants Sentenced in Connection with Operating One of the Largest Illegal Television Show Streaming Services in the United States

    Source: US State of North Dakota

    Yesterday, the final judgments were issued for five Nevada men, including a citizen of Germany, who were sentenced on May 29 and 30 to terms of up to 84 months in prison for running Jetflicks, one of the largest illegal television streaming services in the United States.

    “The defendants operated Jetflicks, an illegal paid streaming service that made available more television episodes than any licensed streaming service on the market,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Matthew R. Galeotti of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “This scheme generated millions of dollars in criminal profits, and hurt thousands of U.S. companies and individuals who owned the copyrights to these shows but never received a penny in compensation from Jetflicks. The sentences issued in this case demonstrate the Criminal Division’s commitment to protect American creativity and to ensure that large-scale infringers are brought to justice and punished for their crimes.”

    “Digital crimes are not victimless crimes,” said U.S. Attorney Sigal Chattah for the District of Nevada. “The copyright owners lost millions of dollars as a result of the illegal paid streaming service. These sentences underscore our joint commitment with the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section and FBI to deter and disrupt intellectual property crime via thorough investigation and prosecution of those who violate federal intellectual property laws.”

    “By building and running one of the largest unauthorized streaming services in the U.S., these individuals not only stole from content creators and legitimate streaming services, they undermined the integrity of our economy and the rule of law,” said Assistant Director Jose A. Perez of the FBI Criminal Investigative Division. “These sentencings are a reminder that illegal actions have consequences. The FBI and our partners are unwavering in our commitment to protect intellectual property rights and hold criminals accountable.”

    After a 14-day trial that ended in June 2024, a federal jury in the District of Nevada convicted Kristopher Lee Dallmann, 42; Peter H. Huber, 67; Jared Edward Jaurequi, also known as Jared Edwards, 44; Felipe Garcia, 43; and Douglas M. Courson, 65, all of Las Vegas, of conspiracy to commit copyright infringement. The jury also convicted Dallmann of criminal copyright infringement by distribution, criminal copyright infringement by public performance, and money laundering. Subsequently, the court sentenced Dallmann to 84 months in prison; Huber to 18 months in prison; Jaurequi to time served (almost 5 months in prison), 180 days of home confinement, and 500 hours of community service; Garcia to three years probation with 49 days in prison and 1000 hours of community service; and Courson to three years probation with 48 days in prison.

    According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, the defendants ran a site called Jetflicks, an online subscription-based service headquartered in Las Vegas, that permitted users to stream and at times download copyrighted television programs without the permission of the relevant copyright owners. At one point, Jetflicks claimed to have 183,285 different television episodes, significantly more than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Amazon Prime, or any other licensed streaming service. This was the largest internet piracy case — as measured by the estimated total infringement amount and total number of infringements — ever to go to trial as well as the first illegal streaming case ever to go to trial. The defendants’ conduct harmed every major copyright owner of a television program in the United States. Copyright owners lost millions of dollars from the operation.

    Evidence presented at trial showed that the defendants used automated software and computer scripts that ran constantly to scour sites around the world hosting pirated content. The software and scripts would download, process, and store illegal content, and then make it immediately available on servers in the United States and Canada to tens of thousands of paid subscribers located throughout the United States for streaming and/or downloading. The defendants often delivered episodes to subscribers the day after the shows originally aired on television. The service was not only available to subscribers over the internet but specifically designed to work on many different types of devices, platforms, and software.

    Each defendant performed at least one and often multiple roles at Jetflicks including management, computer programming and coding, design of the website, applications, and customer interface, technical assistance, content acquisition, subscriptions and revenue, and customer support.

    Dallmann reaped millions of dollars in profit from the operation. The government conservatively estimated the value of the copyright infringement in the case at $37.5 million. This included the approximate retail value of the defendants’ reproduction of infringing works to create the Jetflicks inventory as well as the approximate retail value of the streams of pirated television episodes that the defendants provided to subscribers.

    The five defendants sentenced were among eight defendants originally indicted in the Eastern District of Virginia in connection with operating Jetflicks. In addition to the defendants just sentenced in Nevada, defendant Darryl Polo previously pleaded guilty in the Eastern District of Virginia to four counts of criminal copyright infringement and one count of money laundering for his involvement with Jetflicks as well as an equally large illegal streaming site he ran called iStreamItAll. Similarly, defendant Luis Villarino also previously pleaded guilty in the Eastern District of Virginia to conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. In May 2021, a judge in the U.S. District Court for the District of Virginia sentenced Polo and Villarino to, respectively, 57 months in prison and 12 months and a day in prison.

    After the case was transferred to the District of Nevada for trial, defendant Yoany Vaillant was tried separately from the other five remaining defendants. In November 2024, after an eight-day trial, a federal jury convicted Vaillant of conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. Vaillant is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 4.

    The FBI Washington Field Office investigated the case, with assistance from the FBI Las Vegas Field Office. 

    Senior Counsel Matthew A. Lamberti, Trial Attorney Michael Christin, and Acting Deputy Chief Christopher S. Merriam of the Criminal Division’s Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) and Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jessica Oliva and Edward G. Veronda for the District of Nevada are prosecuting the case. The CCIPS Cybercrime Lab, the Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Canada provided significant assistance.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Former Real Estate Podcaster Sentenced to More Than Five Years in Prison for Orchestrating $7 Million Ponzi Scheme

    Source: US FBI

    CLEVELAND – A popular former podcaster was sentenced to 70 months in federal prison for orchestrating a real estate Ponzi scheme that took in over $7.3 million from at least 63 victims from across the United States, involving a wide range of income levels and ages.

    According to court documents, from October 2017 to March 2022, Matthew Motil, 45, of North Olmsted, was a licensed real estate agent in Ohio who owned and operated several companies. He devised a scheme to defraud investors by using his podcast and other marketing tools to position himself as an expert in the field. Branding himself as the “Cash Flow King,” Motil produced and hosted programs which he promoted through social media and his websites. He also authored a book, “Man on Fire,” to further his credibility with investors. Using a combination of marketing tactics, he solicited prospective investors to invest their money with him and his real estate companies as a lucrative way to generate passive income. Motil provided the victim investors with promissory notes he said were secured by mortgages on properties located throughout Northeast Ohio. Unbeknownst to them, he used the same properties over and over to obtain money from one victim after another, each time providing them with a promissory note purportedly secured by a mortgage. Each victim believed that they were the sole mortgage holder of the investment property and that they would be able to recover their investment through foreclosure if Motil failed to make the payments he promised.

    Motil deflected mortgage questions from investors by saying that there were long processing times. As he convinced more people to invest with him, he used those new funds to pay earlier investors to keep the scheme going.

    “These victims were deceived and manipulated into handing over their hard-earned money to a shameless and selfish individual for his own benefit,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Carol M. Skutnik for the Northern District of Ohio.  “Our office will take action to prosecute anyone who preys on the trusting nature of others.” 

    Motil also used the victim investors’ money to fund his lifestyle. He funded personal expenses such as leasing a large home on Lake Erie and securing courtside seats to Cleveland Cavaliers home games. He also used the funds to pay his credit cards and financially sustain his fitness businesses.

    “The 63 victims of this investment/Ponzi scheme are at the forefront of our work, and this conviction reflects our steadfast commitment to justice on their behalf,” said U.S. Secret Service Special Agent in Charge Blaine M. Forschen for the Cleveland Field Office. “Together with our federal, state, and local partners on the Secret Service Money Laundering Task Force, we will continue to protect our communities from those who exploit trust and inflict financial harm.”

    Motil pleaded guilty to securities fraud and wire fraud on Sept. 5, 2024. U.S. District Court Judge Donald C. Nugent imposed the sentence July 18, 2025. Motil was also sentenced to serve three years of supervised release after imprisonment and pay $5,085,247.08 in restitution.

    The investigation was conducted by the United States Secret Service Money Laundering Task Force* with significant assistance from the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office and the former Major Crime Task Force hosted by the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department.  The Office of the United States Trustee for Region 9 – Cleveland, Ohio, also significantly contributed to the case.

    This case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Erica D. Barnhill for the Northern District of Ohio.

    *The United Secret Service Task Force consists of the following agencies: Social Security-OIG, US Postal-OIG, US Postal Inspection Service, USDA-OIG, HUD-OIG, FBI, TIGTA-OIG, IRS-CI, Ohio BCI, Westlake PD, Parma PD, Amherst PD, North Olmsted PD, Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department, Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office, Ohio Investigative Unit, Lorain County Sheriff’s Department, Stark County Prosecutor’s Office, Geauga County Prosecutor’s Office, Lorain County Prosecutor’s Office, Ohio Casino Commission, Richfield PD and North Ridgeville PD.

In November 2024, after an eight-day trial, a federal jury convicted Vaillant of conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. Vaillant is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 4.

    The FBI Washington Field Office investigated the case, with assistance from the FBI Las Vegas Field Office. 

    Senior Counsel Matthew A. Lamberti, Trial Attorney Michael Christin, and Acting Deputy Chief Christopher S. Merriam of the Criminal Division’s Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) and Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jessica Oliva and Edward G. Veronda for the District of Nevada are prosecuting the case. The CCIPS Cybercrime Lab, the Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Canada provided significant assistance.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Former Taney County Volunteer Firefighter Sentenced to 180 Months for Child Pornography

    Source: US FBI

    SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – A Hollister, Mo., man was sentenced in federal court today for sharing child pornography over the internet.

    Cameron Allen Ryan, 36, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge M. Douglas Harpool to 15 years in federal prison without parole. The court also sentenced Ryan to 10 years of supervised release following incarceration. The court ordered Ryan to pay $51,000 in restitution to his victims and a $5,000 special assessment under the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act.

    Ryan will be required to register as a sex offender upon his release from prison and will be subject to federal and state sex offender registration requirements, which may apply throughout his life.

    Ryan pleaded guilty on Dec. 17, 2024, to one count of receipt and distribution of child pornography. According to court documents, Ryan, who was a volunteer with the Taney County Volunteer Fire Department, admitted to receiving and trading files of child pornography with the undercover FBI agent and other individuals on the internet.

    Law enforcement was alerted by a CyberTip made to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. On Nov. 28, 2023, an undercover FBI agent downloaded numerous images of minor children which had been posted to an image hosting website by the suspect user profile and began communicating with suspect via email. The undercover officer made contact with the suspect, and the suspect sent a video to the agent that depicted a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct.

    The FBI identified Ryan as the suspect user. When officers searched Ryan’s cell phones, one of the phones was logged in to the email account that had been messaging the undercover FBI agent. A forensic analysis of the two phones found over 1800 files containing child pornography.

    This case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephanie L. Wan. It was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force, the Springfield, Mo., Police Department, and the Taney County, Mo., Sheriff’s Office.

    Project Safe Childhood

    This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.

    Source: APO


    .

    The National Assembly (NA) today approved the Revenue Laws Amendment Bill, which marks a significant step in the country’s retirement reform agenda.

    The Bill proposes changes to several tax laws. It is categorised as a Money Bill, processed under Section 77 of the Constitution and follows extensive consultations led by the Standing Committee on Finance.

    The Bill is part of necessary legislative reforms to support the implementation of the two-pot retirement system, which aims to give individuals limited early access to a portion of their retirement savings while preserving the remainder for retirement. The system was implemented in September 2024, and the amendments will provide much-needed clarity for retirement fund members and administrators. The Bill, among other things, clarifies terms like “retirement annuity fund” within the broader legislative context, although some terminology issues will need to be addressed in future updates.

    The National Treasury published the draft bill in December 2024. This was followed by extensive public participation in Parliament’s Standing Committee on Finance, where public input was received from June 2025 onwards.

    With the National Assembly’s approval, the Bill will now be sent to the National Council of Provinces for further consideration.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Fostering Digital Villages Initiative showcases innovation at agricultural shows in Zimbabwe

    Source: APO

    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in collaboration with the Mhondoro-Ngezi District Agricultural Show Society, successfully hosted a ‘Digital Fair’ in the Mashonaland West Province in Zimbabwe. The Digital Fair was held under the auspices of the Fostering Digital Villages Initiative (FDiVi).

    This strategic blending of digital innovation with traditional agricultural exhibitions marks a significant step in Zimbabwe’s journey towards agrifood systems transformation as it showcases tools and services that significantly improves the efficiency and effectiveness of agricultural practices.

    The event served as a dynamic platform to introduce digital service providers to rural communities, enabling farmers, youth, and local leaders to explore and evaluate digital tools tailored for agricultural productivity and rural development. The digital fair is part of the broader global FAO Digital Villages Initiative, which aims to transform agrifood systems in rural Malawi, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe using effective digital technologies, including artificial intelligence.

    Digital Fairs are platforms for raising awareness as well as conduits for digital literacy for rural communities on one hand and rural market entry points for digital service providers, innovators and entrepreneurs.

    “Collaborating with Agricultural Show Societies is a step in the right direction. The success of the digital fair in the Mhondoro-Ngezi where we partnered the Mhondoro-Ngezi District Agricultural Society sets the stage for future integration of digital fairs into national and sub-national agricultural shows, amplifying outreach and fostering inclusive access to innovation,” said Patrice Talla, FAO Subregional Coordinator for Southern Africa and Representative to Zimbabwe.

    “This approach aligns with Zimbabwe’s broader goals for sustainable agriculture, youth empowerment, and rural development, and is more sustainable,” added Talla.

    “The Venice Digital Fair has been overwhelmingly welcomed by the Mhondoro-Ngezi farmers, extension staff and stakeholders, with a lot of interest shown on the services that were being exhibited. We wish to continue to synchronize our future agricultural shows with these digital fairs as this has shown a positive impact on attendance, knowledge sharing and exchange.” said Spiwe Goto an extension officer with the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development.

    The digital fair brought together a wide range of stakeholders, including Government officials; digital service providers; local traditional leaders and community members; and youth organizations, rural development groups, and digital champions.

    “I have learnt a lot through being part of this initiative. Digital innovation isn’t just for urban centres. It’s for every farmer, every youth, and every rural entrepreneur ready to grow. We’re building bridges between technology and tradition,” Maria Chinyoka a Digital Champion trained under the FDiVi project who is also the Kushinga farmer group leader.

    The Digital Fair delivered tangible results, reinforcing the value of integrating digital innovation into Zimbabwe’s agrifood systems. The digital fair contributed to increased awareness of digital tools among rural stakeholders, showcasing their potential to drive agricultural productivity and rural transformation. It also strengthened engagement between digital innovators and grassroots communities, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange.

    “These series of Fairs are a vital bridge between us as digital innovators and grassroot communities that we often overlook in tech-driven agriculture” said Tafadzwa Chikwereti (Co-founder of eAgro).

    “As a financial institution, we witnessed opportunities for our company to penetrate the under-banked community. We will be partnering with local agents to offer our micro-finance services,” Kanukai Madende the Managing Director of Village Finance.

    The digital fair enhanced the visibility of digital solutions within sub-national agricultural platforms, laying the groundwork for broader adoption and policy integration. FAO remains committed to supporting Zimbabwe’s digital transformation journey, ensuring that no community is left behind in the pursuit of modern, resilient, and inclusive agrifood systems.

    .

    As part of ongoing efforts to reform and modernize public finance management and to foster market-based deficit financing through domestic-currency Treasury bills and bonds market, the Ministry of Finance has published its first three-month Treasury-bill issuance calendar.

    This milestone supports the government’s “reset, reform, and relaunch” agenda, deepening the domestic debt market and improving transparency. By giving market participants clear visibility of upcoming auctions, the calendar enhances predictability and builds investor confidence. It also underscores the government’s commitment to borrow domestically in ways that limit inflation and safeguard macroeconomic stability.

    The calendar embodies the shift toward a genuinely market-based approach to Treasury-bill issuance. This compliments the opening of the secondary market and the introduction of more competitive retail auctions open to a wider range of investors through the Ethiopian Securities Exchange.

    The Ministry of Finance will continue to build on this momentum by promoting openness, broadening investor participation, and aligning Ethiopia’s debt-management practices with international best practice.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Indianapolis CPA Sentenced for Participation in Illegal Tax Shelter

    Source: United States Attorneys General 1

    Defendant Helped Clients in Mississippi and Elsewhere File Returns Claiming False Business Deductions

    An Indiana CPA was sentenced yesterday to three years in prison for assisting in the preparation of false tax returns on behalf of clients who participated in an illegal tax shelter.

    The following is according to court documents and statements made in court: between 2013 and 2022, Jason L. Crace prepared income tax returns for clients that claimed millions of dollars in false deductions for so-called “royalty payments.”  However, as Crace knew, these “royalty payments” were merely circular flows of money designed to give the appearance of genuine business expenses. Typically, a client would send money to bank accounts controlled by scheme promoters who then sent the money — minus a fee — back to a different bank account controlled by the client. In this way, tax shelter participants retained control of the money they transferred, while falsely deducting the transfers as business expenses on their tax returns. One of the scheme’s promoters, Stephen T. Mellinger III, previously pleaded guilty and was sentenced to eight years in prison for his role promoting the scheme.

    In total, Crace’s preparation of false tax returns claiming fraudulent “royalty” deductions caused a loss to the IRS of more than $2.5 million.

    In addition to his prison sentence, the court sentenced Crace to serve one year of supervised release and to pay restitution of $2,532,936.

    Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General Karen E. Kelly of the Justice Department’s Tax Division and Acting U.S. Attorney Patrick Lemon for the Southern District of Mississippi made the announcement.

    IRS Criminal Investigation is investigating the case.

    Trial Attorneys Richard J. Hagerman, William M. Montague, and Matthew C. Hicks of the Justice Department’s Tax Division and Assistant U.S. Attorney Charles W. Kirkham for the Southern District of Mississippi are prosecuting the case.

  • MIL-OSI Security: New Jersey Doctor Charged with Distributing Opioids in Exchange for Sexual Favors and Defrauding New Jersey Medicaid

    Source: US FBI

    NEWARK, N.J. – A New Jersey doctor was charged with distributing opioids without a legitimate medical purpose, soliciting sexual favors from patients in exchange for opioid prescriptions, and defrauding New Jersey Medicaid by billing for visits that never happened, U.S. Attorney Alina Habba announced.

    Ritesh Kalra, 51, of Secaucus, New Jersey, was charged in a 5-count Complaint with 3 counts of distributing opioids outside the usual course of professional practice, not for a legitimate medical purpose, and in exchange for sexual favors, and 2 counts of healthcare fraud. Kalra made his initial appearance yesterday before U.S. Magistrate Judge André M. Espinosa in Newark federal court and was released on home incarceration and an unsecured $100,000 bond. He also is prohibited from practicing medicine and prescribing medication and will be required to shut down his medical practice while the case is pending.

    “Physicians hold a position of profound responsibility—but as alleged, Dr. Kalra used that position to fuel addiction, exploit vulnerable patients for sex, and defraud New Jersey’s public healthcare program.  By allegedly exchanging prescriptions for sexual favors and billing Medicaid for ghost appointments, he not only violated the law but endangered lives. Our Office will continue to pursue those who turn their medical licenses into tools for personal gain and sexual gratification.”

    – U.S. Attorney Alina Habba

    “When we seek medical advice and treatment from doctors, we have to assume they have our best interests in mind. This investigation, conducted by the FBI and our partners, illustrates that Dr. Kalra had little regard for actually taking care of his patients. As alleged, he instead used them for his sexual gratification and, in the process, defrauded the state of New Jersey. A patient’s relationship and trust in a physician, while at their most vulnerable, is not something to be exploited for personal gain. We are asking anyone who may be a victim or knows someone who was treated by Dr. Kalra to get in touch with our office at 1-800-CALL-FBI,” stated Special Agent in Charge Stefanie Roddy.

    “In the fight against the opioid crisis, we often witness the painful struggles of those battling addiction. Rather than offering help, Dr. Kalra exploited his victims at their most vulnerable—using opioids as leverage in exchange for sexual favors—further deepening their addiction and worsening the crisis” stated DEA New Jersey Special Agent in Charge Cheryl Ortiz. “The DEA will continue to work with our partners in making sure those who abuse their professional oath are held accountable.”

    “Physicians who recklessly and illegitimately distribute controlled substances undermine critical efforts to battle the opioid crisis and betray their professional responsibility to serve the health and well-being of the public. As alleged, Dr. Kalra took advantage of individuals struggling with addiction all for his own personal gratification,” said Special Agent in Charge Naomi Gruchacz of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG). “HHS-OIG will continue to work with our law enforcement partners to address such abuse to protect patients, communities, and taxpayers from such dangerous conduct.”

    According to documents filed in the case and statements made in court:

    Dr. Kalra, an internist in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, allegedly operated a pill mill out of his medical office, where he routinely prescribed high-dose opioids—including oxycodone—and promethazine with codeine to patients without a legitimate medical purpose.  Between January 2019 and February 2025, Kalra issued more than 31,000 prescriptions for oxycodone, including days when he wrote upwards of 50 prescriptions.  Several of Kalra’s former employees reported that female patients complained that Kalra touched them sexually and demanded sexual favors of them, including oral sex, in order to obtain their prescriptions.  One patient described being sexually assaulted by Kalra on multiple occasions, including forced anal sex during clinical appointments. Another patient continued to receive opioid prescriptions from Kalra when the patient was incarcerated at Essex County Correctional Facility and had no contact with Dr. Kalra.

    Kalra also allegedly billed for in-person visits and counseling sessions that never occurred.  As part of the health care fraud scheme, Kalra’s electronic medical records allegedly contained false progress notes listing fabricated dates of service, and included examination notes that were generally identical from visit to visit and did not record vital signs.

    Each count of distributing controlled substances carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine.  Each count of health care fraud is punishable by a maximum potential penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of $250,000, or twice the gross profit or loss caused by the offense, whichever is greatest.

    Individuals who believe they may be victims of Dr. Kalra or have information about this case may contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (225-5324) or by email at NK-Victim-Assistance@fbi.gov.

    U.S. Attorney Habba credited the following law enforcement organizations with the investigation leading to yesterday’s charges: the Federal Bureau of Investigation, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Stefanie Roddy; the Drug Enforcement Administration, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Cheryl Ortiz; the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Naomi Gruchacz; the Internal Revenue Service—Criminal Investigation, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Jenifer Piovesan; the Social Security Administration Office of Inspector General, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Amy Connelly; the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General Division of Criminal Justice; and the Fair Lawn Police Department.

    The Government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Katherine M. Romano and Jessica R. Ecker and of the Health Care Fraud and Opioids Enforcement Unit in Newark.

    The charges and allegations contained in the complaint are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Diamond District Fence Pleads Guilty in Connection with Large Scale Stolen Property Operation

    Source: US FBI

    The Defendant Operated a Large-Scale Fencing Operation in Manhattan’s Diamond District that Serviced South American Theft Groups that Committed Burglaries Nationwide

    Earlier today, in federal court in Brooklyn, Dimitriy Nezhinskiy pleaded guilty to conspiring to receive stolen property that had been transported in interstate commerce. The proceeding was held before United States District Judge William F. Kuntz.  When sentenced, Nezhinskiy faces a maximum sentence of five years’ imprisonment as well as restitution of approximately $2,500,000, and forfeiture of more than $2,500,000.

    Joseph Nocella, Jr., United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York; Christopher G. Raia, Assistant Director in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office (FBI); Jessica S. Tisch, Commissioner, New York City Police Department (NYPD); and Patrick J. Ryder, Commissioner, Nassau County Police Department (NCPD) announced the guilty plea.

    “The defendant’s criminal conduct, purchasing items stolen from homes and businesses nationwide, provided a vital market for South American Theft Groups and other criminals to sell the proceeds of their crimes,” stated United States Attorney Nocella.  “Our Office and our law enforcement partners are dedicated to ensuring that those who facilitate the victimization of people and businesses are brought to justice.”

    “For more than five years, Dimitriy Nezhinskiy established a demand for stolen merchandise, which allowed South American Theft Groups to profit from repeated burglaries,” stated FBI Assistant Director in Charge Raia.  “His purchases perpetuated a ripple of criminality targeting residences and business across the country.  The FBI will never tolerate any individual who provides economic support to other criminal actors to continue their illicit operations in our city.”

    “This defendant ran a black-market pipeline, buying stolen luxury goods from organized theft crews that targeted homes and businesses,” said NYPD Commissioner Tisch.  “It was a deliberate operation that helped professional burglars prey on innocent people.  Today’s guilty plea sends a clear message: If you profit off stolen property, we will find you and dismantle your operation. I want to thank our detectives and federal partners for their work on this case.”

    “Thanks to the hard work of our Detective Division, working closely with our local and federal partners, the residents of Nassau County can rest easy that we have shut down another criminal group that set out to victimize innocent people,” stated Nassau County Police Commissioner Ryder.  “Let this be a message to the South American Theft Groups and anyone who chooses to work with them: our detectives will find you and bring you to justice if you prey on the good people of our County.”

    According to court filings and statements the defendant made at today’s guilty plea, between approximately 2020 and 2025, the defendant conspired with his co-defendant, Juan Villar, and others, to receive and purchase stolen property, including jewelry, watches, handbags, and assorted luxury items that had been stolen outside of the state of New York and transported into New York.  Nezhinskiy and Villar regularly served as “fences” for South American Theft Groups, burglary crews based out of South America, who traveled around the United States committing burglaries, typically targeting wealthier neighborhoods or jewelry vendors, and stealing luxury accessories like watches, jewelry, and handbags.  Nezhinskiy and Villar’s operation, which consisted of purchasing stolen property from these crews for cash, provided an essential market for the stolen goods, perpetuating the dangerous criminal activities of the burglary and theft crews composed largely of foreign nationals.

    As detailed in court filings and the guilty plea, evidence linked Nezhinskiy and Villar to thefts around the country, including at least two dozen residential or commercial burglaries across the United States between 2019 and 2025.  Additionally, between October 2022 and January 2024, an undercover detective conducted seven controlled sales of purported stolen property, including high-end handbags and luxury accessories, to Nezhinskiy or Villar, or both, at their business location on 47th Street in Manhattan’s Diamond District.  During these controlled sales, the undercover detective provided the defendants with items that the undercover told the defendants had been stolen, and received cash in exchange for the stolen goods.

    Simultaneous with the defendant’s arrest in February 2025, law enforcement executed a search warrant at the location in the Diamond District where Nezhinskiy and Villar operated a pawn shop and seized large quantities of suspected stolen property, including dozens of high-end watches and jewelry.  Law enforcement also recovered large quantities of cash and marijuana.  A search warrant was also executed at storage units belonging to Nezhinskiy in New Jersey where an additional cache of suspected stolen property was found.  From inside Nezhinskiy’s storage units, law enforcement recovered large quantities of luxury goods and clothing, including high-end handbags, wine, sports memorabilia, jewelry, artwork, and power tools consistent with those commonly used in burglaries and opening safes.

    On June 16, 2025, Villar pled guilty to conspiring to receive stolen property that had been transported in interstate commerce and is pending sentencing.

    The government’s case is being handled by the Criminal Section of the Office’s Long Island Division and the Office’s General Crimes Section.  Assistant United States Attorneys Michael R. Maffei, Katherine P. Onyshko, and Sean M. Sherman are in charge of the prosecution.

    United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jay Clayton, and Assistant Director in Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), Christopher G. Raia, announced today the unsealing of an Indictment charging CHRISTINE HUNSICKER with wire fraud, securities fraud, money laundering, making false statements to a financial institution, and aggravated identity theft.  The charges in the Indictment arise from an alleged scheme by the defendant to defraud investors in the fashion technology business CaaStle and a related venture out of more than $300 million through false statements, misleading claims, and fabricated documents.  HUNSICKER self-surrendered this morning and will be presented this afternoon before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jennifer E. Willis.  The case has been assigned to U.S. District Judge J. Paul Oetken. 

    “As alleged, Christine Hunsicker defrauded investors of hundreds of millions of dollars through document forgery, fabricated audits, and material misrepresentations about her company’s financial condition,” said U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.  “The promise of pre-IPO technology companies can be fertile ground for fraudsters who play on investor euphoria.  Investors should be aware of these incentives and that pre-IPO companies are not subject to the rigors of SEC registration.  This Office is committed to protecting investors who place their trust and capital in emerging companies.  We will continue to work closely with our law enforcement partners to investigate, detect, and prosecute those individuals who abuse our markets and our investors”

     “Christine Hunsicker allegedly submitted fraudulent financial statements to swindle investors and banks of more than $300 million,” said FBI Assistant Director in Charge Christopher G. Raia.  “This alleged scheme was stitched together with repeated deception and misinformation, ultimately betraying the trust of the defendant’s clients.  The FBI remains committed to apprehending any business owners who implement unlawful practices to increase their personal wealth.”

    HUNSICKER, a well-known entrepreneur and successful businessperson in the fashion-tech industry, founded and was the chief executive officer of CaaStle, a clothing technology business.  While promoting CaaStle as a rapidly growing business valued at more than $1.4 billion, HUNSICKER knew that CaaStle was in financial distress with limited cash and significant expenses.  To raise the capital for CaaStle’s operations, HUNSICKER provided investors with falsified income statements, fake audited financial statements, fictitious bank records, and sham corporate documents that grossly overstated CaaStle’s operating profit, revenue, and available cash. She also misrepresented to investors that their funds would be used to purchase discounted shares from existing shareholders who needed liquidity, when in fact she fabricated the existence of those shareholders and used the money as new capital for CaaStle while concealing the company’s cash needs.  In total, HUNSICKER fraudulently induced more than $275 million in investments.

    When confronted by an audit firm in October 2023 about transmitting a fake audit to an investor, HUNSICKER lied, falsely claiming that she had created the fake audit in connection with a lecture she gave at Princeton University, and that sending the audit to the investor had been a one-time error. In reality, HUNSICKER had provided two fake audits to the investor while soliciting an investment. She later repaid that investor to prevent the public disclosure of her fraud. Undeterred, she continued the scheme, providing an investor with fake bank account screenshots showing nearly $200 million in available cash when CaaStle had less than $200,000. One month later, in October 2024, HUNSICKER provided a different investor with a fake draft audit. In 2024, HUNSICKER also falsified the signature of a Board director to make it appear that the Board had authorized the grant of stock options to another investor, raising more than $20 million for CaaStle. Around the same time, HUNSICKER extended her fraudulent activities to a new business venture, P180, using false information about CaaStle’s success to raise approximately $30 million for P180. HUNSICKER also submitted false information about CaaStle to a bank in order to obtain and keep a $20 million personal loan.

    Even after the CaaStle Board removed HUNSICKER as Chair and prohibited her from soliciting investments, she continued her fraudulent activities and attempted to raise new capital. In early 2025, she sold $8 million of her CaaStle shares and more than $5 million in P180 convertible notes without disclosing material information to investors. In February 2025, HUNSICKER attempted to sell an additional $19 million of her CaaStle shares to another investor. HUNSICKER persisted in her deceptive practices even after law enforcement agents seized her electronic devices in March 2025, continuing to meet with the investor about a fake audit without revealing its fraudulent nature, her removal from the Board, or the prohibition against her selling shares. CaaStle filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on June 20, 2025.

    *               *                *

    HUNSICKER, 48, of Lafayette, New Jersey, is charged with one count of wire fraud, two counts of securities fraud, and one count of money laundering, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.  HUNSICKER is also charged with one count of making false statements to a financial institution, which carries a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison, and aggravated identity theft, which carries a mandatory sentence of two years in prison.       

    The maximum potential sentences are prescribed by Congress and provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the judge. 

    Mr. Clayton praised the outstanding work of the FBI. Mr. Clayton also expressed appreciation for the assistance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which separately initiated civil proceedings against the defendant today.

    The case is being handled by the Office’s Securities and Commodities Fraud Task Force.  Assistant U.S. Attorneys Marguerite Colson and Alexandra Rothman are in charge of the prosecution.

    BOSTON – A California man was sentenced today in federal court in Boston for trafficking and conspiring to traffic large quantities of methamphetamine and fentanyl.

    Marcos Haro, 40, of Sacramento, Calif., was sentenced by U.S. Senior District Court Judge William G. Young to 14 years in prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release. In March 2025, Marcos Haro pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine and 40 grams or more of fentanyl; two counts of distribution of and possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine; aiding and abetting; and one count of distribution of and possession with intent to distribute 40 grams or more of fentanyl; aiding and abetting.  In April 2023, Marcos Haro was indicted along with his brother Noel Haro.

    Noel Haro is a member and influential leader of the “Border Brothers” gang – a large-scale international gang known to be involved in drug, weapon and human trafficking in Southern Arizona with a presence in Nogales, Mexico and the Arizona prison system. Noel Haro is currently serving a life sentence following convictions in Arizona for drug distribution, conspiracy and money laundering. Noel Haro was previously serving his sentence at a facility in Arizona but was transferred to serve his sentence in Massachusetts upon being deemed a security concern due to his alleged influence over other inmates and repeated introduction of cell phones and narcotics into Arizona facilities.

    Beginning in or about April 2019, and investigation began into Noel Haro’s attempts to facilitate the trafficking of narcotics to Massachusetts. Investigators monitoring Noel Haro’s inmate calls learned that he was soliciting friends and family members to transport narcotics from Arizona to Massachusetts on his behalf. In April 2022, recorded inmate calls indicated that Noel Haro worked with his brother, Marcos Haro, to arrange drug deals outside of prison.

    In June 2022, Marcos Haro agreed to supply a cooperating witness with samples of multiple narcotics, including fentanyl and methamphetamine. Marcos Haro later mailed the narcotics concealed in a purple teddy bear inside a postal package. On July 13, 2022, the package was retrieved and found to contain powdered fentanyl, five counterfeit fentanyl pills, methamphetamine and approximately 3 grams of heroin. On July 25, 2022, during a recorded inmate call, Noel Haro and Marcos Haro discussed selling one pound of methamphetamine to the same individual. On July 27, 2022, investigators retrieved the package sent from Marcos Haro which contained approximately 446.6 grams of 99% pure methamphetamine. On Aug. 10, 2022, Noel Haro directed Marcos Haro to arrange the sale of five pounds of methamphetamine to the same individual. Later, on Sept. 12, 2022, investigators retrieved two packages sent from Marcos Haro, which contained approximately 892.3 grams of 86% pure methamphetamine and approximately 1,320.2 grams of 95% pure methamphetamine.

    In October 2022, Marcos and Noel Haro made arrangements to sell an individual 2,000 fentanyl pills. On Nov. 17, 2022, Marcos sent the individual a photograph of a United States Postal Service shipping box, label and receipt. On Nov. 20, 2022, investigators retrieved the package sent by Marcos Haro, which contained approximately 2,000 blue pills, which tested positive for approximately 215.3 grams of fentanyl.

    On April 2, 2023, Marcos Haro was arrested in Sacramento, Calif. following a motor vehicle stop. A 9mm handgun with eight live rounds in the magazine and approximately 2.9 grams of suspected fentanyl that field tested positive for the presence of opiates, were found during a subsequent search of the vehicle. Marcos Haro has a lengthy criminal history that includes 10 prior convictions, including a 2016 conviction for possession of a controlled substance while armed and illegal possession of an assault weapon with a large capacity magazine, for which he was sentenced to seven years in prison. Marcos Haro is a known member of the Norteno gang which is a Mexican American gang located in Northern California, as well as the Bloods gang and the RideZilla prison gang.

    On July 10, 2025, Noel Haro was sentenced to 188 months in prison.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Tokio, North Dakota, Woman Sentenced to Federal Prison for Involuntary Manslaughter and Child Neglect

    Source: US FBI

    Fargo – Acting United States Attorney Jennifer Klemetsrud Puhl announced today that Tierra Lynn Scott, age 31 from Tokio, ND, was sentenced before Chief Judge Peter D. Welte, United States District Court for the District of North Dakota, to 168 months in federal prison – the statutory maximum of 96 months for Involuntary Manslaughter and 24 months consecutive on each of the three Child Neglect counts in Indian country.  Judge Welte also sentenced Scott to serve three years of supervised release following her incarceration and to pay restitution for funeral-related expenses. 

    On August 17, 2024, law enforcement responded to a residence in Fort Totten, North Dakota, where an adult male was later pronounced dead.  The investigation revealed the man had been struck and run over by a motor vehicle driven by Scott. Scott had no driver’s license and was under the influence of intoxicating liquor and in possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia and Scott was backing and otherwise driving recklessly, and without due care for the rights and safety of others. The investigation further revealed Scott had three minor children in the vehicle with her at the time.

    “In August 2024, a man lost his life due to the negligence of Tierra Scott,” said FBI Minneapolis Special Agent in Charge Alvin M. Winston Sr. “She also placed three minor children at risk, driving with them while under the influence of alcohol and in possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia. The FBI will work together with our law enforcement partners to ensure our community is safe for all, especially for children.”

    “This was an entirely preventable death which was tragically witnessed by others, including children who were in and outside the defendant’s vehicle, all who have no doubt been traumatized,” said Acting US Attorney Jennifer Puhl. “Sadly, in recent years law enforcement has responded to increased incidents of alcohol-impaired driving deaths on the Spirit Lake Reservation. I hope this sentence serves as a reminder of the severe legal consequences for individuals who choose to drive under the influence and will deter that behavior.”

    This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation with assistance from the Bureau of Indian Affairs and was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Lori H. Conroy.

    Governor Stein Announces 515 New Jobs in Western NC as Manufacturer Selects Graham County

    Raleigh, NC

    Governor Josh Stein announced today that Eco King Solutions, LLC, a new subsidiary of a major manufacturer, plans to create 515 jobs in Graham County. The company will invest $80.5 million in Robbinsville to establish its first North American production facility to produce disposable, biodegradable paper tableware.

    “North Carolina offers global companies a perfect location for expansion into North America,” said Governor Josh Stein. “We welcome Eco King to western North Carolina, where it will find a welcoming business climate, education and workforce programs tailored to its needs, and the full range of competitive advantages that make North Carolina the top state to do business in the country.”

    Eco King Solutions is the wholly owned U.S. subsidiary of Chinese manufacturer Zhejiang Kingsun Eco-pack Co., Ltd, which was founded in 2008 and operates three high-capacity factories in China employing approximately 1,200 people. The company specializes in the production of disposable dishware such as bowls, plates, clamshell containers, and trays used in supermarkets and a wide variety of other food service industries. The company serves a growing customer base in North America, and the project represents a strategic expansion to better serve this market. Establishing the facility in Robbinsville will allow the company to localize production, improve supply chain efficiency, and reduce international shipping costs and production lead times. 

    “We have been impressed by how welcoming Robbinsville, Graham County and North Carolina have been to our company and this important project,” said Ping Zhang, Chairman of Eco King Solutions. “We worked very hard to find the right location for our business to thrive. We know we found it right here due to the excellent workforce, quality of life and friendly business climate. We are excited to be a part of the community, and we are excited for our company to prosper here.”

    “This investment is a success story for manufacturing in western North Carolina, where folks work hard to make great products,” said Commerce Secretary Lee Lilley. “Whether it’s CNBC naming us the top state for business or investments from CEOs around the world, North Carolina continues to be a global destination for great job creation.”

    Although wages will vary depending on the position, the average salary for the new jobs will be $46,707, in line with the average wage in Graham County of $46,628. The new jobs will generate an annual payroll impact in the community of more than $14 million.

    The company’s project in North Carolina will be facilitated, in part, by a Job Development Investment Grant (JDIG) approved by the state’s Economic Investment Committee earlier today. Over the course of the 12-year term of this grant, the project is estimated to grow the state’s economy by more than $743.4 million. Using a formula that takes into account the new tax revenues generated by 300 of the new jobs and the capital investment, the JDIG agreement authorizes the potential reimbursement to the company of up to $2,894,000, spread over 12 years. State payments occur only following performance verification by the departments of Commerce and Revenue that the company has met its incremental job creation and investment targets.

    The project’s projected return on investment of public dollars is 106 percent, meaning for every dollar of potential cost, the state receives $2.06 in state revenue. JDIG projects result in positive net tax revenue to the state treasury, even after taking into consideration the grant’s reimbursement payments to a given company. 

    “A major economic development win like today’s announcement provides proof that Robbinsville and Graham County are great places to do business,” said Senator Kevin Corbin. “We’re proud that Eco King chose us for their first North American factory, and we will do everything we can to help them be successful in western North Carolina.

    “I am very excited for Robbinsville,” said Representative Karl E. Gillespie. “The company will be establishing its first manufacturing facility in North America in Graham County. It’s another strong example of why North Carolina was recently named the #1 State in the nation to do business. This project is expected to bring new jobs, boost our local economy, and improve the quality of life in our community. Thank you to our local, regional, and state economic development leaders for helping make this project a reality.”

    Partnering with the North Carolina Department of Commerce and the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina on this project were the North Carolina General Assembly, the North Carolina Community College System, the Commerce Department’s Divisions of Workforce Solutions and Rural Economic Development, Duke Energy, the Town of Robbinsville, Graham County, the Southwestern Commission, and the Mountain West Partnership.
