Insights
TL;DR: Earnings and deposit growth show operating momentum, but $17.7M of unrealized securities losses and lower equity are key near-term concerns.
United Bancorp delivered higher net interest income and modest net income growth with deposits increasing about $29.5 million sequentially versus year-end 2024, supporting liquidity and driving cash to $49.7 million. Loan balances rose roughly $9.6 million. However, the investment portfolio carried $17.7 million of unrealized losses at June 30, 2025, which expanded accumulated other comprehensive loss and lowered shareholders' equity to $59.7 million. Provision expense was modest at $206 thousand for the quarter and the ACL on loans stands at $4.156 million.
TL;DR: Asset quality appears stable with small increases in reserves, but watch unrealized AFS losses and their impact on regulatory capital and OCI volatility.
Credit metrics show a modest increase in allowance for credit losses from $4.026 million to $4.156 million and a quarter provision of $206 thousand. Charge-offs and recoveries remain limited. Nonperforming balances in residential and consumer portfolios are small in aggregate. The larger risk signal is market-driven: a $17.7 million unrealized loss on available-for-sale debt securities, concentrated in long-duration state and municipal obligations, which does not currently require an ACL but has materially increased accumulated other comprehensive loss, compressing equity and potentially affecting capital ratios if market conditions persist.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of United Bancorp, Inc. (“Company”) at June 30, 2025, and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not purport to contain all the necessary financial disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America that might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Company described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Bancorp, Inc. (“United” or “the Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unified Bank of Martins Ferry, Ohio (“the Bank”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Nature of Operations
The Company’s revenues, operating income and assets are almost exclusively derived from banking. Accordingly, all of the Company’s banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in
The Company’s primary deposit products are checking, savings and term certificate accounts and its primary lending products are residential real estate, commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial and industrial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Company can be significantly influenced by a number of environmental factors, such as governmental monetary and fiscal policies, that are outside of management’s control.
Revenue Recognition
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, investment securities, as well as revenue related to mortgage banking activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within the Company’s disclosures.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(In thousands)
Descriptions of the Company’s revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in the income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:
Service charges on deposit accounts - these represent general service fees for monthly account maintenance and activity- or transaction-based fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed (such as a wire transfer). Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligations are satisfied.
Use of Estimates
To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided and future results could differ. The allowance for credit losses and fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.
Investment Securities
Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
Investment securities classified as available for sale are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors. Unrealized gains or losses are reported as increases or decreases in other comprehensive income (loss), net of the deferred tax effect. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of the specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.
Allowance for Credit Losses – Available for Sale Securities
The Company measures expected credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities when the Company does not intend to sell, or when it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For available-for-sale debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this evaluation indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, equal to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. The Company utilizes independent firms to evaluate the Company’s State and Municipal Obligations and Subordinated Notes to measure any expected credit losses. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities is included within investment securities available-for-sale on the consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded within provision for credit losses on the consolidated statement of income. Losses are charged against the allowance when the Company believes the collectability of an available-for-sale security is in jeopardy or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $
Loans
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for credit losses and any deferred fees or costs. Accrued interest receivable totaled $
The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial and industrial, which are typically utilized for general business purposes and commercial real estate, which are collaterized by real estate. Homogenouse loans consisting similar products that are smaller in amount and distributed over a large number of individual borrowers include residential real estate and consumer loans.
For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for credit losses. Interest generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income on a cash basis, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months), and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past-due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.
Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is a valuation reserve established and maintained by charges against income and is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the ACL when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.
The ACL is an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of a loan, that considers our historical loss experience, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Determination of an appropriate ACL is inherently subjective and may have significant changes from period to period.
The methodology for determining the ACL has two main components: evaluation of expected credit losses for certain groups of homogeneous loans that share similar risk characteristics and evaluation of loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans.
The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company uses the call report classification as its segment breakout and measures the allowance for credit losses using the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity method for all loan segments.

Historical credit loss experience is the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. We apply historical loss rates to pools of loans with similar risk characteristics. After consideration of the historic loss calculation, management applies qualitative adjustments to reflect the current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts not already reflected in the historical loss information at the balance sheet date. Our reasonable and supportable forecast adjustment is based on a 2 year unemployment forecast provided by Bloomberg and management judgment. For periods beyond our reasonable and supportable forecast, we revert back to historical annual loss rates for the remainder of the life of each pool after the forecast period. The qualitative adjustments for current conditions are based upon current level of inflation, changes in lending policies and practices, experience and ability of lending staff, quality of the Company’s loan review system, value of underlying collateral, the existence of and changes in concentrations and other external factors. These modified historical loss rates are multiplied by the outstanding principal balance of each loan to calculate a required reserve.
The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the measurement of its ACL. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any outstanding accrued interest is reversed against interest income.
The ACL for individual loans begins with the use of normal credit review procedures to identify whether a loan no longer shares similar risk characteristics with other pooled loans and therefore, should be individually assessed. We evaluate all commercial and industrial loans and residential and installment loans greater than $
Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted through credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.

The risk characteristics of each loan portfolio segment are as follows:
Commercial and Industrial, and Commercial Real Estate
Commercial loans are primarily based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets, such as accounts receivable or inventory, and may include a personal guarantee. Short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. Commercial real estate loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. The characteristics of properties securing the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse, but with geographic location almost entirely in the Company’s market area. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, geography and risk grade criteria. In general, the Company avoids financing single purpose projects unless other underwriting factors are present to help mitigate risk. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate versus nonowner-occupied loans.
Residential Real Estate and Consumer
Residential real estate and consumer loans consist of two segments - residential mortgage loans and personal loans. For residential mortgage loans that are secured by 1-4 family residences and are generally owner-occupied, the Company generally establishes a maximum loan-to-value ratio and requires private mortgage insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Home equity loans are typically secured by a subordinate interest in 1-4 family residences, and consumer personal loans are secured by consumer personal assets, such as automobiles or recreational vehicles. Some consumer personal loans are unsecured, such as small installment loans and certain lines of credit. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas, such as unemployment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

To facilitate the monitoring of credit quality within the loan portfolio, and for purposes of analyzing historical loss rates used in the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the Company utilizes the following categories of credit grades: pass, special mention, substandard, and doubtful. The four categories, which are derived from standard regulatory rating definitions, are assigned upon initial approval of credit to borrowers and updated periodically thereafter. Pass ratings, which are assigned to those borrowers that do not have identified potential or well defined weaknesses and for which there is a high likelihood of orderly repayment, are updated periodically based on the size and credit characteristics of the borrower. All other categories are updated on at least a quarterly basis.
The Company assigns a special mention rating to loans that have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may, at some future date, result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or the Company’s credit position.
The Company assigns a substandard rating to loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged. Substandard loans have well defined weaknesses or weaknesses that could jeopardize the orderly repayment of the debt. Loans and leases in this grade also are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies noted are not addressed and corrected.
The Company assigns a doubtful rating to loans that have all the attributes of a substandard rating with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonable specific pending factors that may work to the advantage of and strengthen the credit quality of the loan or lease, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors may include a proposed merger or acquisition, liquidation proceeding, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral or refinancing plans.

Note 5: Off-Balance-Sheet Activities
Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contracts are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance-sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

Note 7: Fair Value Measurements
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company also utilizes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date |
Level 2 | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities |
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities |

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Available-for-sale Securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company’s equity securities are classified within Level 1 of the hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent asset pricing services and pricing models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections and cash flows. Such securities are classified in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.
Collateral Dependent
Collateral dependent loans consisted primarily of loans secured by nonresidential real estate. Management has determined fair value measurements on collateral dependent loans primarily through evaluations of appraisals performed. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
As of June 30, 2025, the fair value investment in individually analyzed loans totaled $

The Company considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans are obtained when the loan is determined to be collateral-dependent and subsequently as deemed necessary by the Company’s Chief Lender. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by the Company’s Chief Lender. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral. These discounts and estimates are developed by the Company’s Chief Lender by comparison to historical results. There were
Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value (based on current appraised value) at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Management has determined fair value measurements on other real estate owned primarily through evaluations of appraisals performed, and current and past offers for the other real estate under evaluation. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, foreclosed assets held for sale are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Appraisals of OREO are obtained when the real estate is acquired and subsequently as deemed necessary by the Company’s Chief lender. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by the Company’s Chief Lender and are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management.
The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Loans
Fair values of loans are estimated on an exit price basis incorporating discounts for credit, liquidity and marketability factors.
Deposits
Deposits include demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and certain money market deposits. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Accrued Interest Payable
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Short-term Borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Subordinated Debentures
Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt.
Commitments to Originate Loans, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit
The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. Fair values of commitments were not material at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
The following discusses the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2025, as compared to December 31, 2024, and the results of consolidated operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included herein.
Introduction
We are happy to report on the increased earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 and, the overall solid performance achieved by United Bancorp, Inc. (UBCP) for the first six months of 2025. For the quarter, our Company produced net income and diluted earnings per share of $1,914,000 and $0.33, which are respective increases of $175,000 and $0.03, or 10.0% for each, over the results achieved for the second quarter of the previous year. In addition, and on a linked-quarter basis, our Company’s net income and diluted earnings per share results also respectively increased by $43,000, or 2.3%, and $0.01 or 3.1%. For the first six months of 2025, UBCP produced net income of $3,786,000, an increase of $54,000, or 1.4%, over the previous year and diluted earnings per share of $0.65, which matched the level achieved the previous year. Considering, over the course of the past twelve months, we have undertaken several transformative projects that have added to our noninterest expense levels, such as: the construction of our new Wheeling Banking Center, the development and scaling out of both Unified Mortgage and our Treasury Management Programs, the investment in new technology and digital transformation and the acquisition of a property in St. Clairsville, Ohio that will become our Unified Center--- which will house our Accounting, Information Technology and Customer Sales and Service Functions--- we are very happy with the present performance of our Company. With our unwavering focus on growing our Company through our investment in infrastructure, product development and delivery, we strongly believe that these current undertakings, which are dilutive to current financial performance, will provide a pathway to future growth and lead to increasingly higher performance over the course of the next twelve to twenty-four months, and help us to maintain our overall relevance for many years to come.
As we all know, the economic environment in which we are operating is posing challenges for all businesses with the present high degree of uncertainty that permeates our national and world economies as a result of the tariffs that were announced earlier this year under the new administration and which are in the process of being enacted. This new trade policy, coupled with a potentially slowing economic output and lingering inflation, has led many of us to question the future direction of our economy and what impact it will have on the businesses that operate therein, including our Company. Even though we have dealt with changing fiscal and monetary policy over the course of the past couple of years, this new economic reality relating to trade policy has only recently been cast upon us. Thus far, our Company has responded in a positive fashion to this new economic uncertainty with which we have been confronted on both a year-to-date and year-over-year basis. For the first six months of 2025 compared to the same six- month period the previous year, the net interest income that our Company realized increased by $526,000, or 4.3%, and our net interest margin improved by eleven (11) basis points to 3.65% from 3.54%. Of note, on a year-over-year basis for the most recently ended quarter, our Company’s net interest income increased by $394,000, or 6.4%. We are optimistic that we can continue this current increasing and expansionary trend for both our total interest income and net interest margin for the remainder of this year. Primarily driving the growth in our net interest income and our margin expansion is the growth that our Company achieved in its total assets, increasing on a year-over-year basis by $26.0 million, or 3.2%, to a level of $847.9 million as of June 30, 2025. This growth in total assets was comprised of gross loans increasing by $16.2 million, or 3.4%, to a level of $500.7 million and cash and due from the Federal Reserve Bank increasing by $12.1 million, or 32.3%, to a level of $49.7 million as of the most recently ended quarter. Excitedly, for the first time in our Company’s history, our gross loans exceeded a threshold of a half-billion dollars! With our present liquidity levels at the Federal Reserve, we will have a keen focus on continuing to grow this higher-yielding asset category as we progress into this year. This anticipated growth in our Company’s gross loans, along with the continued repricing of our loan portfolio in a higher-rate environment, should contribute to our Company continuing to generate higher levels of interest income on loans and loan related fees, which should positively contribute to the aforementioned projection of higher levels of net interest income being realized for the remainder of the year. Looking at the interest expense side of the net interest margin, our Company’s total interest expense did respectively increase on both a year-to-date and year-over-year basis for the most recently ended quarter by $229,000, or 3.2%, and $139,000 or 3.8%. This modest increase in our Company’s total interest expense was primarily driven by a year-over-year increase in our total deposits of $19.8 million, or 3.2%, to a level of $642.9 million and a shift in our Company’s depository mix with a decrease in our lower-cost funding (consisting of demand and savings balances) and an increase in our higher-cost term funding (consisting of time deposits). Even with this reality, our Company’s interest expense to average assets only increased year-over-year by five (5) basis points to a level of 1.79%. In the present environment in which we operate,

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
we do anticipate that we will be able to continue controlling our total interest expense at a level that should continue to contribute to net interest income expansion and margin accretion during the current year.
Even with many of our borrowers experiencing rate resets to levels that may be double their previous rates on their loans in this higher-rate environment and with the economic uncertainty that continues, we have successfully maintained credit-related strength and stability within our loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2025, our Company’s total nonaccrual loans and loans past due 30 plus days were $2.2 million, or 0.45% of gross loans, which is up from last year by $1.1 million; but, down on a linked-quarter basis by $598,000 from a level of $2.8 million. Year-over-year, our loans past due thirty plus days actually decreased by ($340,000) or (43.3%). But, our nonaccrual loans increased by $1.4 million with a majority of this being attributed to one commercial relationship. As of the end of the most recently completed quarter, our Company’s nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.60%, an increase of fourteen (14) basis points from the previous year’s level of 0.46%; but, lower on a linked-quarter basis by eight (8) basis points. These reported levels continue to be well-below historic levels and compare very favorably to peer. Further highlighting the overall strength of our loan portfolio, our Company had net loans charged off (excluding overdrafts) of ($122,000) for the first six months of this year, which annualized is (0.07%) of average loans and is in-line with the previous year. Considering some of the economic uncertainty and macroeconomic trends in the current year, along with the growth in our gross loans, our Company had a provision for credit loss expense of $302,000 year-to-date for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, which is an increase of $68,000 year-over-year and led to a decrease in our Company’s diluted earnings per share of ($0.03) in the current year. Even considering our growing gross loans, with the increased provision for credit losses this year and continued solid credit quality-related metrics as of the most recently ended quarter, our Company had a total allowance for credit losses to total loans of 0.83%, which is a one (1) basis point increase over the previous year, and our total allowance for credit losses to nonaccrual loans was 231% as of June 30, 2025. Overall, we firmly believe that we are presently well reserved with strong coverage. Also, our Company remains very well capitalized by regulatory standards with regulatory capital (stockholders’ equity plus accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCI)) of $74.1 million, or 8.9%, of average assets as of June 30, 2025.
Considering that the uncertainty relating to our country’s present economic outlook remains elevated due to our current administrations recently implemented trade policy, coupled with the arguably overly restrictive monetary policy position of the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) under which we presently operate, our Company has performed in an admirable fashion over the course of the first six months of 2025. We are happy to see the growth trends that we have experienced during the first two quarters of the current year in both our total deposits and gross loans and the current quality of the credit related metrics of our loan portfolio that remain relatively stable and low by historic standards. With the stronger demand for our loan products that we are currently experiencing, especially, in the relationship-driven, small-business oriented commercial portfolio, which accounts for approximately eighty percent (80%) of our total loans, we can continue our focus of attracting more deposits to fund this increased loan demand that we continued to see over the course of the most recently ended quarter and, once again, begin growing our Company and working toward achieving our goal of growing our total assets to a level of $1.0 billion or greater. As we invest in the infrastructure of our Company, we have a lot of positive operating leverage and scale is definitely our friend. This anticipated growth that we envision should lead to increasing revenue generation and profitability in future periods.
Under it’s guiding principles and vision, UBCP has had a goal to grow its asset-base to a level of $1.0 billion (and, beyond) for the past several years. With all of the economic uncertainty and challenges within the past few years with which we have been confronted, our Company adopted a more defensive posture, which sacrificed growth for the sake of maintaining sound performance with a more conservative balance sheet management approach. Beginning in 2024, we began to adopt a more offensive-oriented posture with a focus, once again, on driving the growth of the balance sheet of our Company, which we believe will lead to higher levels of earnings and profitability and ensure our long-term relevance. Several new initiatives (some of which we have previously announced and have already undertaken or begun) are key to driving this envisioned growth. A major initiative that our Company has undertaken, as we put our proverbial “foot on the accelerator” to achieve our envisioned growth objective, is the development and construction of a new regional banking center in the desirable market of Wheeling, West Virginia. We are excited with the progress that has been made on this highly-promising banking center, which is scheduled to open within the next ninety (90) days. Even though this banking center has not yet opened, some of the recent growth within our loan portfolio is directly attributed to this office through the efforts of our business development team that we already have in place. We firmly believe that within five years, this new banking center will be a top performer for UBCP. Another exciting initiative that we have undertaken and more fully developed over the course of the past year is our new Unified Mortgage Division. Last year, this new division helped our Company produce higher levels of fee income and we believe that as we scale this function more fully, it will only become more lucrative for us. We have also become more focused on developing our Treasury Management function, which focusses on helping our small business customers with cash management, merchant services and payments. Not only does this developing department within our Company help generate higher levels of fee income, it also is key to

helping us grow our no or low-cost deposit base, both of which lead to increased profitability. Also, over the course of the past year, UBCP has made a tremendous investment in the area of technology as we focus on digital transformation and omni-channel delivery, which will ensure that we meet the changing needs of our customer base and attract new customers to our Company. We are also in the process of implementing artificial intelligence (AI), which will help us better serve our customers by more effectively and efficiently answering customer inquiries on their terms and guide them to the best financial solutions to meet their current and changing needs. Lastly, we acquired a property in St. Clairsville, Ohio that will house the Accounting, Technology and Customer Support functions for our Company, which will be known as the Unified Center. As UBCP has grown and evolved over the course of the past several years (and, as we continue to do so), we have had a need for a facility such as this. I am most excited about the Customer Support function that we are developing at the Unified Center, which will centralize the service function of our Company with team members that are highly skilled and more capable of providing a more “Unified Experience” to our valued customers. In addition, it will have a sales-oriented function, which is anticipated to lead to additional business for our Company (with the help of our AI-solution) by routing inbound inquiries from any banking channel to a skilled sales professional. This process will focus on the development and expansion of relationships through more effective on-boarding practices and the cross-selling of additional products and services to our existing and newly prospected customers through this much more efficient and effective delivery channel. The renovation of the Unified Center should be completed by year-end and will be ready for our occupancy and the launch of our new and exciting customer-centric solutions in the first quarter of next year.
As always, our primary focus is protecting the investment of our shareholders in our Company and rewarding them in a balanced fashion by growing their value and paying an attractive cash dividend. In these areas, our shareholders have been nicely rewarded. In the first half of the current year, we, once again, paid both our regular cash dividend and a special dividend to our valued shareholders. With these payouts, the regular cash dividend increased by $0.02 from the previous year to a level of $0.3675, an increase of 5.8%. The special cash dividend paid out in the first quarter of this year was $0.1750, which was an increase of $0.025, or 16.7%, over the payout the previous year. In the current year, UBCP has paid total cash dividends to its shareholders in the amount of $0.5425, an increase of $0.045, or 9.1%, over the amount paid in the first six months of 2024, which produces a near-industry leading total dividend yield of 6.3%. This total dividend yield is based on our second quarter cash dividend on a forward basis, plus the special dividend (which combined total $0.9150) and our quarter-end fair market value of $14.50. On a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2025, the fair market value of our Company’s stock favorably increased by $1.95, or 15.5%, and our market price to tangible book value was 147%, which compares favorably to current industry standards.
Considering that we continue to operate in a challenging and uncertain economic and a highly competitive industry-related environment, we are very pleased with our current performance and future prospects. Even with these present threats to which we are exposed, we are very optimistic about the future growth and earnings potential for UBCP. We firmly believe that with the challenges that our industry has experienced over the course of the past few years, our Company has evolved into a more fundamentally sound organization with a focus on evolving and growing in order to achieve greater efficiencies and scales and generate higher levels of revenue, while prudently managing expenses and controlling overall costs. We have and continue to invest in areas that will lead to our continued and future relevancy within our industry. Although such initiatives can stress the short-term performance of our Company, we firmly believe that the will help us fulfill our intermediate and longer-term goals and produce above industry earnings and overall performance. As previously mentioned, we still have a vision of growing UBCP to an asset threshold of $1.0 billion or greater in the near term in a prudent and profitable fashion.

Analysis of Financial Condition
Earning Assets – Loans
The Company’s focus as a community bank is to meet the credit needs of the markets it serves. At June 30, 2025, gross loans were $500.7 million, compared to $491.0 million at December 31, 2024, an increase of $9.8 million after offsetting repayments for the period. The overall increase in the loan portfolio was comprised of a $10.7 million increase in commercial and commercial real estate loans and a $161,000 increase in real estate lending and a $1.1 million decrease in installment loans since December 31, 2024.
Commercial and commercial real estate loans comprised 80.1% of total loans at June 30, 2025, compared to 79.5% at December 31, 2024. Commercial and commercial real estate loans have increased $10.7 million, or approximately 2.7% since December 31, 2024. This segment of the loan portfolio includes originated loans in its market areas and purchased participations in loans from other banks for out-of-area commercial and commercial real estate loans to benefit from consistent economic growth outside the Company’s primary market area.
Consumer loans represented 1.5% of total loans at June 30, 2025 and 1.8% at December 31, 2024. Some of the consumer loans carry somewhat more risk than real estate lending; however, it also provides for higher yields. Consumer loans have decreased $1.1 million, or 12.5%, since December 31, 2024. The targeted lending areas encompass four separate metropolitan areas, minimizing the risk to changes in economic conditions in the communities housing the Company’s banking locations.

Residential real estate loans were 18.4% of total loans at June 30, 2025 and 18.7% at December 31, 2024, representing an increase of $161,000, or less than 1.0% since December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company did not hold any loans for sale.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company considered its concentration of credit risk to be acceptable. The following table presents additional detail regarding the Company’s largest loan concentration as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The allowance for credit losses totaled $4.2 million at June 30, 2025, which represented 0.83% of total loans. The allowance represents the amount which management and the Board of Directors estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance balance and the provision charged to expense are reviewed by management and the Board of Directors monthly using a risk evaluation model that considers borrowers’ past due experience, economic conditions and various other circumstances that are subject to change over time. Management believes the current balance of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb credit losses over the life of the loan portfolio. Net loan (recoveries) charge-offs (exclusive of overdrafts net charge-offs of $50,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were approximately $122,000. Net loans charged off (exclusive of overdrafts net charge-offs $46,000) was $117,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Earning Assets – Securities
The securities portfolio is comprised of U.S. Government agency-backed securities, tax-exempt obligations of state and political subdivisions and certain other investments. Securities available for sale at June 30, 2025 decreased approximately $13.9 million from December 31, 2024 totals.
Sources of Funds – Deposits
The Company’s primary source of funds is core deposits from retail and business customers. These core deposits include all categories of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, excluding certificates of deposit greater than $250,000. For the period ended June 30, 2025, total core deposits (interest and non interest bearing accounts and savings) increased approximately $22.1 million, or 3.8% from December 31, 2024 totals. The Company’s savings accounts decreased $1.4 million or 1.1% from December 31, 2024 totals. The Company’s interest-bearing and non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $6.8 million while certificates of deposit under $250,000 increased by $16.7 million.
The Company has a strong deposit base from public agencies, including local school districts, city and township municipalities, public works facilities and others that may tend to be more seasonal in nature resulting from the receipt and disbursement of state and federal grants. These entities have maintained fairly static balances with the Company due to various funding and disbursement timeframes.
Certificates of deposit greater than $250,000 are not considered part of core deposits, and as such, are used to balance rate sensitivity as a tool of funds management. At June 30, 2025, certificates of deposit greater than $250,000 increased $7.4 million or 20.6%, from December 31, 2024 totals.
Sources of Funds – Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Other Borrowings
Other interest-bearing liabilities include securities sold under agreements to repurchase and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. The majority of the Company’s repurchase agreements are with local school districts and city and county governments. The Company’s repurchase agreements increased approximately $5.1 million from December 31, 2024 totals. At June 30, 2025, the Company has $75 million of fixed rate advances that mature over the next 1 to 3 years. Refer to footnote 10 for further information.

Noninterest Expense
The Company saw its noninterest expense increased by $922,000 or 8.8% year-over-year. The increase is due to additional staffing related to the Fall 2025 opening of our Wheeling Banking Center and normal merit increases and general inflation.

Capital Resources
Internal capital growth, through the retention of earnings, is the primary means of maintaining capital adequacy for the Company. Stockholders’ equity totaled $59.7 million at June 30, 2025, compared to $63.5 million at December 31, 2024, a $3.8 million decrease. Total stockholders’ equity in relation to total assets was 7.04% at June 30, 2025 and 7.37% at December 31, 2024. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation allows for a class of preferred shares with 2,000,000 authorized shares. This enables the Company, at the option of the Board of Directors, to issue series of preferred shares in a manner calculated to take advantage of financing techniques which may provide a lower effective cost of capital to the Company. The amendment also provides greater flexibility to the Board of Directors in structuring the terms of equity securities that may be issued by the Company. Although this preferred stock is a financial tool, it has not been utilized to date.
The Company has offered for many years a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“The Plan”) for shareholders under which the Company’s common stock will be purchased by the Plan for participants with automatically reinvested dividends. The Plan does not represent a change in the Company’s dividend policy or a guarantee of future dividends.
The Company is subject to the regulatory requirements of The Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company. The Bank is subject to regulations of the FDIC and the State of Ohio, Division of Financial Institutions. The most important of these various regulations address capital adequacy.
On January 1, 2015, the final rules of the Federal Reserve Board went into effect implementing in the United States the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Under the final rule, minimum requirements increased for both the quality and quantity of capital held by banking organizations. The rule requires a new minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 percent and a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets that will apply to all supervised financial institutions. The rule also raises the minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4 percent to 6 percent and includes a minimum leverage ratio of 4 percent for all banking organizations.
The Bank continues to be well-capitalized in accordance with Federal regulatory capital requirements as the capital ratios below show:

Common equity tier 1 capital ratio |

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity
Management’s objective in managing liquidity is maintaining the ability to continue meeting the cash flow needs of its customers, such as borrowings or deposit withdrawals, as well as its own financial commitments. The principal sources of liquidity are net income, loan payments, maturing securities and sales of securities available for sale, federal funds sold and cash and deposits with banks. Along with its liquid assets, the Company has additional sources of liquidity available to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These include, but are not limited to, the purchase of federal funds, the ability to borrow funds under line of credit agreements with correspondent banks, a borrowing agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and the adjustment of interest rates to obtain depositors. Management feels that it has the capital adequacy and profitability to meet the current and projected liquidity needs of its customers.
Inflation and Economic Environment
Inflation can directly impact the Company’s performance by potentially reducing the spending power of its borrowers. Higher costs continue to present a risk to the economy. The Company continues to closely monitor and analyze the higher risk segments within the loan portfolio, tracking past due accounts. Based on the Company’s capital levels, prudent underwriting policies, loan concentration diversification and our geographic footprint, senior management is cautiously optimistic that the Company is positioned to continue managing the impact of the varied set of risks and uncertainties currently impacting the economy and remain adequately capitalized. However, the Company may be required to make additional credit loss provisions as warranted by the extremely fluid economic condition.

The Company adopted the United Bancorp, Inc. Affiliate Banks Directors and Officers Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), which is an unfunded deferred compensation plan. Amounts deferred pursuant to the Plan remain unrestricted assets of the Company, and the right to participate in the Plan is limited to members of the Board of Directors and Company officers.
