Minerva, Ohio — October 21, 2026 (OTCQX: CBKM) Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Consumers) today reported net income of $3.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, an increase of $80 thousand, or 2.7%, from the previous quarter ended June 30, 2026, and an increase of $404 thousand, or 15.3%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was $0.96, compared with $0.94 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and $0.84 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

“The strong first quarter of fiscal year 2027 results reported here reflect balance sheet growth, higher net interest margin, and improved noninterest income. Robust new loan business and draws on commitments made in prior periods contributed to a $30.8 million, or 13.2% annualized increase in loan balances during the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. New loans and commitments originated in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 totaled $117.1 million, an 11.1% increase from the previous quarter and a 33.6% increase from the same period in fiscal year 2026. Compared to the prior year, new commercial loans and commitments increased 15.1%, residential mortgage lending increased 15.9%, personal loan originations increased 104.2%, and home equity line of credit commitments increased 56.4%. While inflationary pressures and a sharp increase in market rates have sidelined some potential borrowers, the level of activity reflected in the respective sales pipelines remains steady and the loan portfolio continues to perform well. Annualized net charge-offs to total loans of 0.01% and total delinquency of 0.13% reflect strong loan quality, our borrowers’ ability to navigate a challenging economic environment, and a history of prudent underwriting practices. The improved margin reflects a higher loan to deposit ratio, scheduled interest rate resets, and the reinvestment of cash flow into higher yielding loans and investments. Increased debit card usage, mortgage banking revenue, and customer swap fees contributed to a 7.9% increase in noninterest income from the same period in the prior year. The loan growth experienced during the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was supported by a $24.7 million increase in deposit balances obtained through the branch network. I am also pleased to report that last year’s expansion to Massillon and downtown Canton contributed to the first quarter’s 8.8% annualized growth and 7.1% year-over-year growth in deposits. Further, we have made progress on two previously announced expansion initiatives. Renovations began on the previously announced relocation of our Jackson Township branch to the center of Belden Village, Jackson Township premier retail and professional community, and construction will soon begin on the bank’s first full-service location in Mahoning County. The Jackson branch will relocate in January 2027, and the Boardman office is expected to open in the third quarter of fiscal year 2027. We expect these growth opportunities, along with our continued investment in business development and operations staff, to support future asset growth,” said Ralph J. Lober II, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Net income was $3.0 million, or $0.96 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2026, $3.0 million, or $0.94 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and $2.6 million, or $0.84 per share, for the same prior year period.

Net interest income was $10.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, $10.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, and $9.5 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. The net interest margin was 3.52% for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, 3.47% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and 3.37% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The increase in net interest income and the net interest margin was primarily because of an increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets. The yield on average interest-earning assets was 5.25% for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared with 5.16% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and 5.06% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The cost of funds was 2.30% for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared with 2.26% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and 2.29% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

The provision for credit losses was $425 thousand for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, and included a $415 thousand provision for credit losses on loans and a $10 thousand reserve for unfunded commitments. This compares with a $285 thousand provision for credit losses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, which included a $320 thousand provision for credit losses on loans and a reduction of $35 thousand to the reserve for unfunded commitments. Net charge-offs of $31 thousand were recorded for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, compared with $81 thousand that were recorded for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025.

Other income increased by $116 thousand, or 7.9%, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same prior year period primarily due to an increase of $27 thousand, or 4.0%, in debit card interchange income, an increase of $19 thousand, or 17.6%, in bank owned life insurance earnings because of the purchase of new life insurance policies during the 2026 fiscal year, and $38 thousand of revenue recognized on interest rate swaps.

Other expenses increased by $727 thousand, or 9.5%, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same prior year period. The increases were primarily in salaries and benefits and occupancy and software expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, compared with the same prior year period, as the Company continues to grow its branch network.
