KILMARNOCK, VA / ACCESSWIRE / October 24, 2023 / On behalf of Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc. (parent company of both Chesapeake Bank and Chesapeake Wealth Management), Jeffrey M. Szyperski, Chairman of the Board & CEO, reported earnings for the third quarter of 2023 of $2,477,896, a 58% decrease from the third quarter of 2022. The third quarter of 2022 did include a non-recurring pre-tax gain of $2.2 million resulting from the sale of a partial interest in an investment brokerage firm. The reported earnings per share were $0.526 fully diluted compared to $1.261 fully diluted for the third quarter of 2022. Total assets ended the quarter at $1,382,205,095, up slightly from year-end.

"Asset quality remains extremely good," commented Szyperski. "Nonperforming assets were at 0.376% on September 30, 2023 compared to 0.431% on September 30, 2022. The net interest margin was 3.366% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The continued strengths of our Flexent and Chesapeake Payment Systems divisions are keeping our non-interest income strong in this inverted yield curve environment. The acquisition of the assets of a smaller factoring firm effective May 1^st has bolstered Flexent net income 73% over the third quarter of last year. We anticipate a continued strong contribution from this division going forward."
