Pioneer Bancorp, Inc. reported net income of $3.5 million, or $0.14 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, down from $6.5 million, or $0.26 per share, a year earlier. Six‑month net income was $8.8 million, or $0.36 per share, versus $12.2 million, or $0.49 per share.
Net interest income grew to $22.9 million for the quarter from $19.6 million, and net interest margin improved to 4.30% from 4.13%, driven by higher yields on interest‑earning assets and loan growth, including loans from the Targeted Lending acquisition.

Thomas Amell, President and CEO, said, “Our second quarter 2026 financial results reflect the strength of Pioneer’s relationship-based business model focused on creating client advocacy through our highly engaged employees. During the quarter, we experienced positive momentum across our company, highlighted by growth in net interest income and margin, driven by continued loan portfolio expansion, growth in our diversified deposit base, and prudent management of funding costs. The benefits of this growth were partially offset by certain elevated expenses as compared to the prior year period. A significant milestone during the quarter was the successful completion of the acquisitions of Targeted Lending, Reiser Consulting Group, and Wyndham Benefits. Together with our recent acquisition of The College Advisor of New York, these additions further advance our ‘More Than a Bank’ strategy by expanding our capabilities, diversifying revenue streams, and strengthening the value we deliver to clients. Looking ahead, we remain focused on delivering long-term value for our stockholders, customers, and employees by investing in initiatives that strengthen employee engagement, elevate client experience, and support community development, while pursuing strong financial performance. ”

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income was $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $3.3 million, or 16.5%, as compared to net interest income of $19.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Net interest income was $43.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $4.9 million, or 12.7%, as compared to net interest income of $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets of 32 basis points and an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $232.3 million, partially offset by an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities of four basis points and by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $247.7 million. The increase in net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets of 23 basis points and an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $182.6 million, partially offset by an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities of four basis points and by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $194.3 million.
Interest income was $31.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $4.9 million, or 18.0%, compared to interest income of $27.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Interest income was $60.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $7.3 million, or 14.0%, compared to interest income of $52.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was driven by market-related increases in interest rates on new loans and on investment securities, loans acquired from the Targeted Lending acquisition and due to an increase in the average balance of loans. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 32 basis points to 6.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 5.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 23 basis points to 5.86% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 5.63% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Interest expense was $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1.6 million, or 21.9%, compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Interest expense was $16.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $2.4 million, or 17.5%, compared to $14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by four basis points to 2.45% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 2.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by four basis points to 2.39% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 2.35% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 primarily due to a shift in the mix of deposits towards higher cost interest-bearing deposit accounts.
Net interest margin increased 17 basis points to 4.30% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 4.13% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Net interest margin increased 11 basis points to 4.23% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 4.12% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
Non-performing assets were $9.4 million, or 0.40% of total assets, at June 30, 2026, compared to $11.3 million, or 0.52% of total assets, at December 31, 2025.
The allowance for credit losses on loans was $28.1 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $25.3 million at December 31, 2025, representing 1.48% and 1.51% of total loans outstanding, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 the allowance for credit losses on loans increased $2.6 million due to the allowance for credit losses recorded at the acquisition date for the acquired Targeted Lending loans.
Net charge-offs were $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $70,000 and $85,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The increase in net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in commercial and industrial loan net charge-offs due to an $854,000 charge-off related to one commercial borrower, as well as net charge-offs on the acquired Targeted Lending loans during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Annualized net charge-offs were 0.32% and 0.17% of average loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.02% and 0.01% of average loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
The provision for credit losses was $1.4 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The decrease in the provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to improvement in the loan portfolio credit quality, offset by growth in the loan portfolio and an increase in net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense
Noninterest income of $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $658,000, or 13.7%, as compared to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Noninterest income of $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased $793,000, or 9.3%, as compared to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in insurance and wealth management services income, an increase in bank fees and service charges, and an increase in net gain on sale of loans, offset in part by a decrease in other noninterest income. The increase in insurance and wealth management services income was as a result of organic growth related to our wealth management services and the acquisition of Brown Financial Management Group during the three months ended December 31, 2025. The increase in bank fees and service charges and net gain on sale of loans was a result of the acquisition of Targeted Lending during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease in other noninterest income was primarily due to $550,000 of bank-owned life insurance income as a result of a death benefit recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
3
Noninterest expense of $22.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $7.5 million, or 50.6%, as compared to $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Noninterest expense of $40.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased $11.0 million, or 37.5%, as compared to $29.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in professional fees, an increase in salaries and employee benefits, and an increase in other noninterest expenses. The increase in professional fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to higher legal fees and expenses and partially related to the completion of our recent acquisitions described above during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Salaries and employee benefits increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 primarily due to compensation expense from annual merit increases and an increase in the number of employees from acquisitions completed during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Other noninterest expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 primarily due to a net increase in litigation-related expense.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $385,000, or 22.9%, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Income tax expense was $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 48.6%, compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate was 27.2% and 16.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 20.7% and 21.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was due to an increase in non-deductible expenses. The decrease in income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 primarily related to a discrete tax item.
Balance Sheet Summary
Total assets of $2.36 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $213.0 million, or 9.9%, from $2.15 billion at December 31, 2025.
Net loans receivable of $1.87 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $224.6 million, or 13.6%, from $1.65 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in net loans receivable was primarily a result of an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $147.4 million driven by the acquisition of Targeted Lending during the three months ended June 30, 2026. In addition, the residential mortgage loan portfolio increased by $46.2 million and the commercial construction loan portfolio increased by $39.9 million, offset in part by a decrease in commercial real estate loans of $5.0 million.
Securities available for sale of $200.9 million at June 30, 2026 decreased $19.5 million, or 8.9%, from $220.4 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to maturities, paydowns and calls of $45.8 million, offset in part by purchases of $28.0 million of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Deposits of $1.97 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $229.8 million, or 13.2%, from $1.74 billion at December 31, 2025. By deposit category, certificates of deposits increased by $201.7 million and money market accounts increased by $24.7 million. The increase in certificates of deposit was primarily due to an increase in brokered deposits, and by a migration of funds from non-interest bearing demand, savings and other lower rate interest-bearing accounts. The increase in money market accounts was primarily due to a migration of funds from non-interest bearing demand, savings and other lower rate interest-bearing accounts.
Shareholders’ equity of $328.3 million at June 30, 2026 increased $4.4 million, or 1.4%, from $323.9 million at December 31, 2025 primarily as a result of net income of $8.8 million, offset in part by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $1.9 million and by the repurchase of common stock of $3.6 million.
