Exhibit 99.1

First Northern Community Bancorp Reports Second Quarter 2024 Net Income of $4.4 Million

For immediate release

Dixon, Calif., July 29, 2024 — First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQX: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported net income of $8.7 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, down 13.5% compared to net income of $10.1 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $4.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, down 3.1% compared to net income of $4.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Comparing our 2024 results to prior year, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, included a substantial paydown on a non-performing agricultural loan relationship, the recognition of a bargain purchase gain from our branch acquisition completed in the first quarter, as well as a substantial charge off that, when coupled with our strong quarterly loan growth, resulted in provision for loan loss of $2.6M for the quarter to replenish our allowance for credit losses. On a combined basis these items contributed an additional $0.8 million to pre-tax income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and reduced pre-tax income by $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Total assets as of June 30, 2024, were $1.89 billion, a decrease of $25.5 million, or 1.3%, compared to June 30, 2023. Total deposits as of June 30, 2024, were $1.71 billion, a decrease of $51.6 million, or 2.9%, compared to June 30, 2023. Total net loans (including loans held-for-sale) as of June 30, 2024, were $1.05 billion, an increase of $30.7 million, or 3.0%, compared to total net loans (including loans held-for-sale) of $1.02 billion as of June 30, 2023. The increase in net loans was primarily driven by growth in commercial real estate, residential mortgage and commercial loans, partially offset by net reductions in agricultural and residential construction loans.

The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of June 30, 2024.

Commenting on the Company’s financial results, First Northern’s President & Chief Executive Officer, Jeremiah Smith, stated, “We are pleased with our performance in the second quarter with our net interest margin improving from 3.49% in the first quarter of 2024 to 3.65% in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 16 basis points, or 4.6%. We continued to fund our balance sheet favorably, with 43.4% of average total deposits being non-interest bearing for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.”

CEO Smith further stated “We continue to focus on improving our operating efficiency, resulting in a quarter-over-quarter decrease in total non-interest expenses of $0.9 million, or 8.3%, in the continued inflationary landscape. This decline was primarily attributable to a decrease in salaries and benefits associated with workforce reductions and incentive and profit-sharing accrual adjustments. We remain committed to improving shareholder value, and as of June 30, 2024, our book value per share rose to $10.75, an increase of $0.31, or 3.0%, when compared to the $10.44 reported for March 31, 2024, largely due to earnings retention.”

First Northern Community Bancorp Reports

Record Year End 2023 Net Income of $21.6 Million

5% Stock Dividend Declared

Dixon, California— First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQX: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported 2023 annual net income of $21.6 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, increases of 35.7% and 35.6%, respectively, when compared to net income of $15.9 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, for 2022.  Net income for the year included the bargain purchase gain resulting from our branch acquisition completed in the first quarter of 2023. On an after-tax basis, the bargain purchase gain contributed $1.0 million to net income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 totaled $6.9 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.7 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The increase in net income on a quarter over quarter basis was largely driven by the reversal of provision for credit losses which totaled $2.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to no provision for credit losses for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The reversal of provision for credit losses of $2.0 million was primarily due to the payoff of a non-performing agricultural loan relationship that resulted in recoveries of previously charged-off principal totaling $2.6 million, partially offset by provision for credit losses due to loan growth during the quarter.

Total assets as of December 31, 2023 were $1.87 billion, an increase of $0.5 million, or 0.03%, compared to December 31, 2022. Total deposits as of December 31, 2023 were $1.69 billion, a decrease of $34.4 million, or 2.0%, compared to December 31, 2022. Total net loans (including loans held-for-sale) as of December 31, 2023 were $1.1 billion, an increase of $82.3 million, or 8.5%, compared to total net loans (including loans held-for-sale) of $970.1 million as of December 31, 2022. The increase in net loans was primarily driven by growth in commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans partially offset by net reductions in agricultural loans.

The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of December 31, 2023.

Commenting on the Company’s year-end 2023 financial results, First Northern Bank’s President & Chief Executive Officer Jeremiah Smith stated, “We are pleased to report robust financial results for the year 2023. Our success was partially driven by the heightened interest rate environment and subsequent balance sheet repricing. This resulted in record net interest income of $66.5 million for the year, an increase of $11.8 million, or 21.7%, compared to the previous year’s $54.7 million. The Company ended the year with a record $21.6 million of net income, an increase of 35.7% over the $15.9 million earned in 2022. We believe the success we experienced in 2023 was driven by the significant demand for our approach to relationship banking across the Sacramento region and surrounding communities, and reflects the trust our clients and communities have placed in First Northern Bank. Further, we’re proud to announce that our trading upgrade from the OTCQB® Venture Market to the OTCQX® Best Market is complete. The OTCQX should provide improved visibility for our stock to investors, brokers, and market makers, with the aim of enhancing shareholder value for FNRN.”

The Company also reported that at their regular meeting on January 25, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a 5% stock dividend payable March 25, 2024 to shareholders of record as of February 29, 2024. All income per share amounts in this press release have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock dividend.

Despite the inflationary economic environment we find ourselves in, loan growth continues, though at a slower pace than last year. The industry as a whole has experienced weakening loan demand. Loan growth coupled with rising interest rates helped to boost year-to-date net interest income to $49.6 million, an increase of 27.7% over the same period last year.  Our credit quality remains strong with non-performing assets decreasing 31% over the same period in 2022.”

Dixon, California— First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQB: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported record net income of $5.5 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, up 80.5% compared to net income of $3.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The Company adopted and implemented Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, more commonly referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) standard model, on January 1, 2023. The allowance for credit losses (ACL), formerly known as the allowance for loan losses, and the reserve for unfunded commitments totaled $15,492,000 as of December 31, 2022. Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, the Company recognized an increase in the ACL for loans and reserve for unfunded commitments totaling $1,300,000 as a cumulative effect adjustment from change in accounting policies, with a corresponding decrease in opening retained earnings of $916,000, net of deferred taxes of $384,000.

On January 20, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of three branches from Columbia State Bank in Colusa, Willows, and Orland, CA. The acquisition resulted in the assumption of $115.9 million of deposits and the acquisition of loans totaling $4.0 million, fixed assets totaling $3.6 million and cash on hand of $1.3 million.  The Company also recognized a core deposit intangible of $5.0 million. The Company received cash consideration totaling approximately $103.4 million, resulting in a bargain purchase gain totaling approximately $1.4 million recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023. On an after-tax basis, the bargain purchase gain contributed $1.0 million to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, or $0.07 per diluted share.

Total assets as of March 31, 2023 were $1.90 billion, an increase of $35.6 million, or 1.9%, compared to March 31, 2022. Total deposits as of March 31, 2023 were $1.75 billion, an increase of $35.1 million, or 2.1%, compared to March 31, 2022. Total net loans as of March 31, 2023 were $974.6 million, an increase of $100.2 million, or 11.5%, compared to total net loans of $874.4 million as of March 31, 2022. The increase in net loans was primarily driven by originations of commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans, which was partially offset by payoffs, and the forgiveness and SBA reimbursement on loans made under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program.

The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of March 31, 2023.

Commenting on the Company’s financial results, First Northern’s President & Chief Executive Officer Jeremiah Smith stated, “We are very pleased to begin 2023 with such strong results. Key contributors to our performance stem from balance sheet management, our mix of earning assets, and a low-cost core deposit funding base, which led to a $4.3 million, or 37.3%, increase in net interest income of $16.0 million at March 31, 2023, up from the $11.6 million posted for the same period in 2022.  We also performed well on a linked-quarter basis when compared to the fourth quarter of last year with net interest income improving by $144 thousand or 0.9%. The Company’s average yield on interest-earning assets increased to 3.76% for the quarter, while cost of funds remained well managed at only 0.38%. The increase in our yield on earning assets when compared to the increase in cost of funds drove an increase in net interest margin of 7 basis points, or 2%, from 3.48% for the quarter ending December 31, 2022 to 3.55% for the quarter ending March 31, 2023. And, we are happy to announce that our first-ever branch acquisition went very smoothly.  Our team gained a great deal of experience from the almost year-long project.”

On March 24, 2023, the Company paid a 5% stock dividend to all shareholders of record as of February 28, 2023.

First Northern Community Bancorp Reports 2nd Quarter 2022 Earnings

Net Loan Growth, Excluding PPP Loans, was Up 24.3% Year Over Year

Dixon, California—First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQB: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported net income of $6.6 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, up 1.6% compared to net income of $6.5 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 was $3.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, up 7.3% compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Total net loans (including loans totaling $1.5 million made under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)) as of June 30, 2022 were $931.9 million, an increase of $57.8 million, or 6.6%, compared to total net loans (including loans held-for-sale and loans totaling $125.6 million made under the SBA’s PPP) of $874.1 million as of June 30, 2021.  The increase in net loans was primarily driven by originations of commercial real estate and agriculture loans, which was partially offset by payoffs and the forgiveness and SBA reimbursement on loans made under the SBA’s PPP.

1 The presentation of net loan growth, excluding loans under the SBA’s PPP, is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in light of the short-term and non-recurring impact of loans made under the SBA’s PPP on the Company’s financial statements.

Commenting on the Company’s financial results, President & Chief Executive Officer Louise Walker stated, “We delivered exceptional results this quarter, driven by continued execution of our strategic initiatives and double-digit loan growth (excluding PPP loans).  Additionally, we saw net interest income expansion, deposit growth, and a 35% decrease in non-performing assets compared to the same period a year ago.  We are also proud to share that First Northern Bank was ranked #192 in the nation in American Bankers 2022 Top 200 Community Banks.”

First Quarter 2022 Net Income of $3.0 Million

Dixon, California—First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQB: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported net income of $3.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, down 4.3% compared to net income of $3.2 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Total assets as of March 31, 2022, were $1.87 billion, an increase of $87.7 million, or 4.9%, compared to March 31, 2021. Total deposits as of March 31, 2022, were $1.72 billion, an increase of $109.0 million, or 6.8%, compared to March 31, 2021. Total net loans (including loans held-for-sale and loans totaling $14.8 million made under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)) as of March 31, 2022, were $874.4 million, a decrease of $76.4 million, or 8.0%, compared to total net loans (including loans held-for-sale and loans totaling $202.6 million made under the SBA’s PPP) of $950.8 million as of March 31, 2021. The decrease in net loans was primarily driven by payoffs and the forgiveness and SBA reimbursement on loans made under the SBA’s PPP.

Excluding PPP loans, net loan growth as of March 31, 2022, was $111.4 million, or 14.9%, compared to March 31, 2021.1 The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of March 31, 2022.

Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in light of the short-term and non-recurring impact of loans made under the SBA’s PPP on the Company’s financial statements.

Commenting on the Company’s financial results, President & Chief Executive Officer Louise Walker stated, “We remain optimistic for 2022; our first quarter 2022 results were a reflection of our solid and growing deposit base and our ability to grow net interest income by deploying excess cash into loan and investment opportunities as well as payoffs and the forgiveness and SBA reimbursement of loans made under the SBA’s PPP loan program, driving increased recognition of PPP-related fee income which helped offset lower mortgage-related revenues due to decreasing refinance activities. Net interest income was up $766,000 or 7.1% at March 31, 2022, compared to the same period a year ago. We are pleased to report our credit trends continue to be positive, our small business, agribusiness and commercial loan pipelines have returned to pre-pandemic levels and the quality of our loan portfolio is strong. We believe that the Company is well-positioned for the increasing interest rate environment.”

On March 25, 2022, the Company paid a 5% stock dividend to all shareholders of record as of February 28, 2022.

Year End 2021 Net Income of $14.2 Million

5% Stock Dividend Declared

Dixon, California—First Northern Community Bancorp (the “Company”, OTCQB: FNRN), holding company for First Northern Bank (“First Northern” or the “Bank”), today reported year ended 2021 net income of $14.2 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, up 16.7% compared to net income of $12.2 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the year ended 2020.   Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 totaled $3.2 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Total assets as of December 31, 2021 were $1.90 billion, an increase of $243.7 million, or 14.7%, compared to December 31, 2020. Total deposits as of December 31, 2021 were $1.73 billion, an increase of $250.1 million, or 16.9%, compared to December 31, 2020. Total net loans (including loans held-for-sale and loans totaling $37.3 million made under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)) as of December 31, 2021 were $853.8 million, a decrease of $31.2 million, or 3.5%, compared to total net loans (including loans held-for-sale and loans totaling $155.0 million made under the SBA’s PPP) of $885.0 million as of December 31, 2020.  The decrease in net loans was primarily driven by payoffs and forgiveness on loans made under the SBA’s PPP.  Excluding these PPP loans, net loan growth for the year ended 2021 was $86.5 million, or 11.9%, compared to the same period in 2020.1  The Company continued to be “well capitalized” under regulatory definitions, exceeding the 10% total risk-based capital ratio threshold as of December 31, 2021.

1 The presentation of net loan growth, excluding loans under the SBA’s PPP, is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in light of the short-term and non-recurring impact of loans made under the SBA’s PPP on the Company’s financial statements.

Commenting on the Company’s financial results, President & Chief Executive Officer Louise Walker stated, “We are pleased to announce First Northern Community Bancorp recorded another year of strong financial performance for 2021.  We posted year-over-year double digit growth in net income, total deposits, total loans (excluding PPP), and total assets.  While total net loans decreased as a result of payoffs and forgiveness on loans made under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, First Northern posted increases in commercial real estate, agriculture and residential mortgage loans.  Other bright spots for 2021 included improving credit quality and growth in non-interest income including service charge income and debit card income, which was partially offset by a decline in gains on loans held for sale, compared to the year ended 2020.”

There was no provision for loan losses for the three months ended December 31, 2021, compared to a provision for loan losses of $800,000 for the same period in 2020.  Reversal of provision for loan losses totaled $1,500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to a provision for loan losses of $3,050,000 for the same period in 2020.  The reversal of provision for loan losses was primarily due to a decrease in specific reserves on loans to one borrower coupled with an overall decrease in qualitative factors resulting from improvements in overall economic conditions.

The Company also reported that at their regular meeting on January 27, 2022, the Board of Directors approved the payment of a 5% stock dividend payable March 25, 2022 to shareholders of record as of February 28, 2022.  All income per share amounts have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock dividend.
