City Holding Company Announces Quarterly Results

Charleston, West Virginia – City Holding Company (“Company” or “City”) (NASDAQ:CHCO), a $6.8 billion bank holding company headquartered in Charleston, West Virginia, today announced net income of $31.7 million and diluted earnings of $2.20 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company achieved a return on assets of 1.92% and a return on tangible equity of 19.3%.

Net Interest Income

The Company’s net interest income decreased approximately $1.0 million, or 1.6%, from $60.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2025 to $59.6 million during the first quarter of 2026. The Company’s tax equivalent net interest income decreased approximately $0.9 million, or 1.5%, from $60.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 to $59.9 million for the first quarter of 2026. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the yield on loans and a decrease in the yield on investments which decreased net interest income by $1.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The decline in net interest income due to the decrease in the yield on investments was primarily attributable to the maturities of $150 million of swap agreements in October 2025 ($50 million) and November 2025 ($100 million). In addition, net interest income decreased $0.4 million due to a decrease in the average balances of investments ($36.1 million) and $0.3 million due to a decrease in average balances of deposits in depository institutions ($34.9 million).

These decreases were partially offset by a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities (11 basis points) and an increase in average loans outstanding ($60.5 million), which increased net interest income by $1.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The Company’s reported net interest margin improved from 3.94% for the fourth quarter of 2025 to 3.97% for the first quarter of 2026.

Credit Quality

The Company’s ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans and other real estate owned decreased from 0.32%, or $14.4 million, at December 31, 2025 to 0.27%, or $12.2 million, at March 31, 2026. Total past due loans increased modestly from $8.5 million, or 0.19% of total loans outstanding, at December 31, 2025, to $8.8 million, or 0.20% of total loans outstanding, at March 31, 2026.

As a result of the Company’s quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to no provision for credit losses for the comparable period in 2025, and a provision for credit losses of $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2026 was primarily related to a commercial loan for a movie theater that had been transferred to nonaccrual status in the third quarter of 2024. Due to further cash flow deterioration, a $0.85 million charge-off was recorded in the quarter ending March 31, 2026, leaving an outstanding balance of approximately $5.0 million. This charge-off was partially offset by a decline in loan balances from the fourth quarter of 2025 and net recoveries (exclusive of the movie theater charge-off) during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income increased $0.9 million from $18.7 million in the first quarter of 2025 to $19.6 million in the first quarter of 2026. This increase was due to an increase of $0.4 million, or 14.3%, in wealth and investment management fee income, a $0.3 million, or 43.6%, increase in other income, and an increase of $0.2 million, or 3.4%, in service charges. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in bank owned life insurance of $0.2 million.

Non-interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses increased $1.8 million, or 4.6%, from $37.6 million in the first quarter of 2025 to $39.4 million in the first quarter of 2026. This increase was largely due to an increase in salaries and employee benefit expenses ($1.0 million due to salary adjustments (3.5%) and increased health insurance (11.3%)), other tax related matters ($0.4 million), and equipment and software related expenses ($0.2 million).

Balance Sheet Trends

Loans decreased $11.3 million (0.3%) from December 31, 2025 to $4.50 billion at March 31, 2026. Commercial and industrial loans decreased $12.4 million and consumer loans decreased $4.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2026. These decreases were partially offset by increases in residential real estate loans of $3.3 million (0.2%) and commercial real estate loans of $1.6 million (0.1%).

Period-end deposit balances increased $42.6 million from December 31, 2025, to March 31, 2026. Total average depository b
