1. Securities repositioning
Orrstown Financial Services is reinvesting proceeds from $185.6 million in available-for-sale securities sales into available-for-sale securities yielding an estimated 5.2%. The repositioning is expected to boost net income, net interest margin and return on average assets in future periods.
2. Expected capital impact
An estimated $13.8 million pretax loss on the sales will be included in fourth-quarter 2026 results. The estimated losses would reduce September 30, 2026 risk-based capital ratios by 22 basis points and the leverage ratio by 20 basis points; regulatory capital ratios would remain well above well-capitalized thresholds, and the capital impact is expected to be recovered within two quarters.
